Are you mad yet?

Working with a couple on debt reduction recently I finally just had to ask them this question…so being the untactful guy I truly am I just blurted it out…

“Are you mad yet?”

They sort of looked at me puzzled and I repeated the question. “Are you mad yet?”

Well the long and short of it is they were not mad yet.

You’ve heard me refer to this a bunch. You’ve got to get mad about your situation. You’ve got to start saying to yourself “I’m sick and tired of this and I’m not going to take it anymore!”

Until you do this, until you get real mad, you won’t do anything other than give it lip service.

True change begins inside of you. Once the change occurs inside of you your actions will begin to reflect the necessary “behavioral changes” to get you on track.

If you want the strategies to get you debt free, look at previous posts. If you aren’t mad yet, get mad.

The madness is what’ll change you.
