Progress

Amidst the whirlwind of change occurring right now, it is easy to allow the doubt to creep up and cover everything with a cloud of negativity. Of course that is the opposite of what is needed to plow through the change. Motivation and optimism are essential at a time like this. So I take a moment to ponder the progress I have made, rather than how much further I wish to go. 

I have more than doubled my emergency fund savings. And for the first time ever, I no longer live from one paycheck to the next. Simply sitting and reflecting on this accomplishment renews my motivation. Reaching those goals provides me with more happiness and security than owning a house ever could. 

For today I will enjoy what I have achieved. Perhaps tomorrow I will focus on tackling the next goal.
