Weekly Roundup
My week of writing
This week I talked about goals and roadmaps for success. On Monday, I discussed the importance of actually setting specific financial goals to keep you focused on what you want to achieve. Then on Wednesday, I talked about the need for a financial roadmap to get you to your goal this is otherwise known as a budget. Finally, on Friday I shared my top ten financial goals that anyone could be working on in case you needed some motivation. Tuesday I was over at Young Adult Money talking about money practices that ruin relationships.
What I enjoyed reading this week:
- Melanie at Dear Debt shared a story about meeting a reader and understanding who she blogs for, and I understand what she is saying. Sometimes it can seem like personal finance bloggers are only writing for other bloggers; however, we all have readers who never comment but learn from and appreciate what we are doing.
- John at Frugal Rules wrote about a recent career choice he had to make and the importance of the freedom running his own business provides him. I agree with him that I am completely ruined for a corporate job now.
- DC at Young Adult Money wrote about why a balanced life is overrated. I think we all struggle (kids or no kids) to find balance in our lives and achieving it is going to be different for all of us.
- Bre at The Weight of Debt shared 6 things she did to improve the SEO on her site. SEO is one of the things I still need lots of help with on my blog, so I really appreciated her sharing what is working.
A very big thank you to Canadian Budget Binder, Budget and the Beach, for highlighting my posts this week. I hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend, the sun is shining and it is beautiful here in New York, I plan to watch my son play soccer and enjoy the pool with my guys.
What do you have planned for the weekend?
