We’re all strangely attracted to the notion of maintaining the status quo. Even though it’s clearly not in our best interests, we are stubborn and drag our feet. It is very difficult to change course even when our backs are against the wall. Why is that?
There’s a reason for that
Something other than reason is making decisions behind the scenes. It’s a type of operational bias.
Don’t give yourself grief over this. We all have situations and challenges that make us reevaluate our priorities and direction in life. But when it comes to your financial security, you owe it to yourself to take extra care and make sure you aren’t making it harder than it has to be.
The Becoming Debt-Free path has answers for you, whether it’s how to get motivated (or stay motivated), why it matters, or how to do it. In fact, why not skip ahead if you need some convincing?
Here’s what to read:

The other reason
Life is a journey, and becoming debt-free is an important, necessary step.
The Becoming Debt-Free path is foundational for a reason. In the process of repaying what you owe, you gain the skills you need to master your finances to reach any goal. And that’s pivotal because it’s not just the skills you achieve, it’s also that you give yourself the opportunity to live the life of your dreams.
Don’t wait another minute to get out of debt!
