Day 15
Babies, Budgets and Business
Embarking on this next phase of my life with two little ones
is exciting and a little bit scary. Moving from a combined to a single income,
while at the same time establishing a household is a daunting budgeting task.
I’ve put together a budget, but barely. I’ve never been
great at managing money and this is going to take all of my skills and some new
ones.
I’ve been working with my brother, who inherited more of the Scottish
genes than I did to put together some numbers that work. I’ve downloaded a
budget app that received 4 stars in the app store and I am pumped and ready to
go.
Keeping to a budget and not exceeding my income will help me
to manage stress, focus on financial priorities and maintain a reasonable
lifestyle for my babies.
What I’ve realized in putting my budget together is that
there is very little room for things like… Christmas, extracurricular
activities and anything extra at all.
My budget works but just barely.
I love the Advocare products and I’ve seen the business
model work very well for my friends that have taken advantage of the
opportunity. I’m starting to feel serious about the
potential of my own Advocare business adding to my income. The things I like
about the potential are:
- Earning extra income without taking time away from my babies
- Helping others achieve their health goals
- Being part of a positive community of entrepreneurs
If you were thinking about a Challenge or even becoming
involved with Advocare, this is the moment. A call to action and support of my
budding small business!
