New life, new me

Options
Hi, I wanted to start my own diary as I have just started my own hypnotherapy business. It's an exciting time and a great time to reasses all areas of my life. My son is coming up for 18 so it's me,me,me time. I am married and looking forward to paying off the the house, but going on some holidays along the way.

Situation today is I have bills coming in for website, business cards, leaflets etc. At the moment I don't know how bad it is so I need to get a grip on the money side, no more spending. This is day 1 of memory girls 100 day challenge and mine is to get 15 clients a week.

Thats the business, also want to work on personal. Since moving here 3 years ago I have not made any new good friends. I gave up work in feb to finish my study, so miss having work mates.

Massive Action Plan

1. 15 clients a week
2. pay off depts
3. build up some savings
4. pay off house
5. join a gym
6. make time for old friends and new
7. have some fun :beer:

Good start today, I have a client this morning. So need to prepare and get house all shiny. The plus side to working from home is you have to keep it nice. I can be lazy with house work, but if someones coming round, I seam to switch to turbo boost.

Right time to blitz house and me!

    Hi, and welcome all, I'm glad I tidied the house, I did'nt expect so many visitors:T. I will have to drop by and visit yours miggy, put the kettle on. Had first client today, went well so boosted my confidence.

    I had a p bond cheque arrive for £25.00:D, if only it could have had more 0's. I know Martin does'nt approve but the money has just been holidaying while I was using a 0% on a credit card. Cashed in bonds now as I need to pay card. I did get 2 x£25.00 in 6 months , not as much as I hoped for but better than nothing.

    Also today my cherry tomato plants and winter seed potatoes arrived with bags to plant them in , fantastic and paid for with tesco's deals. :jLove it, love it, love it I am looking forward to planting them out tomorrow.

    Anyone had any wins or unexpected cash?

    I love quotes and sayings that inspire so I am going to have a QUOTE OF THE DAY, I wonder how many days I can do, so here goes

    New book tonight from the library. This charming man by the fantastic Marian Keyes. Just finished Desparate diary of a country housewife by Daisy Waugh which was fab, I will be looking out for her other 2. Taking back Love letters by Katie Fforde half read. So glad I was strong and resisted buying it in Mr T, every time I picked it up, I told myself no and walked away. I was over the moon when I saw it in the library, loved all her other books I've read, this one yawn, yawn ,yawn. Here's hoping 'this charming man' puts a smile on my face in bed tonight:rotfl: Good night all

    Congrats on the Premium Bond win!
    I had some bought for me when I was a baby and I've never, ever won anything in (ULP!) nearly half a century! DH won £50 which was especially nice as he was stuck in a hospital bed at the time. :)

    I know what you mean, I got a £1 bond given as a baby, never won a bean, when ever I cash mine in I always keep that one. I like to think if ever I really need help the angels have my ticket.

    It's Quote of the day time
    Whether you think you can , or you think you can't, your right.

    So I think I can put out 500 hypno leaflets today and get lots of clients

    Goes off singing ABBA , money, money money:D
