This article is very write - wishing things were different do not solve problems. Especially financial ones. You have to want to change the situation, but you must also ACT to change the situation. Whether increasing income or cutting back on expenses, negotiating with debt or selling something you can’t afford, you must actually DO something.

I loved this Blog. I agree that simply wishing for what we need or want will not get it. If we expect to see change we must do something to bring it about. That brings me to my favorite saying which is: If you keep doing the same thing you always did the same way you always did it you will keep getting the same results.

“If you do what you always done, you’ll get what you always got.”
Sort of the same idea that Gerri had.
Anyway, you have to make a change in yourself to bring about financial change. I truly believe that the foundation of good financial decisions is simple patience and self-discipline (characteristics tough to come by these days).
Good post.

I completely agree - you can’t “wish” for things to happen, you have to MAKE them happen.
Just last night I was telling a co-worker how silly he is if he wishes he could not work and start up a band. He seems to think that will be the “easy life”, but as I explined, celebirties work 16 hours a day or more, and he’s be in a different city to9uring every other day. Plus, the chances for success aren’t that high simply by “wishing” for it to happen. I told him he needs to get out there and come up with practicla solutions/

When I read this article it really hit home. You can either talk about it or be about it, but we all know which one eventually prevails! It’s great to wish and write things down, but we eventually have to take action.
