Working the plan works

After connecting on Facebook a couple of nights previous, a couple of us agreed to meet him and chat Friday morning.

My friend Monica J. Foster, owner of BUTTERFLYWHEELâ„¢ Motivation, Advocacy & Consulting was with us as well. She had been on Matt's show a couple of years ago sharing her inspirational life story, but this was the first time they had met in person. It was great. As I shared with Matt about my coaching business and seminars, Monica threw in an unsolicited testimony for me, to the "Money-Smart Guy"!

Monica explained how she and her husband had taken my seminar at the YMCA, and that they will be out of debt very soon. This is really exciting when you consider that Monica lives with spina bifida. The extra expenses required to live independently are above and beyond the average person. However, this couple made a plan and stuck to it!

Getting out of debt is within reach of all of us. While we have different income and debt levels that can affect the speed of our debt reduction, it is still attainable. Putting together a plan and sticking to it will allow you to attain financial freedom, and the joy that comes with it, like Monica and her husband.
