Just a little DFW plan of action made today....I increased my OD weekly standing order by a whole £1 a week! (Now now....calm down! lol)
I know it won't make a massive difference but I'm trying to break myself gently in to paying out more and still living within my means....it might take a while but we'll get there! #longhardslog

Excellent! ...no, really! Another pound paid is another pound less debt.
The most important thing to do before paying off your debts is to have a stable and workable budget, which now presumably have.
After that, starting to pay off debts, even if only £1a week or increasint it by £1 a week is small positive steps... “ Slowly, slowly, catch the monkey”.
Ater all , you probably didn't amass all your debt overnight so keep making small positive steps
DFW'er - Lightbulb moment : 31st July 2009 - £18,499
28th October 2019 - £13,505 - 27% paid off.

Every little helps as they say! Small amounts being paid off over time all add up!
