    Consistency is the key, you're dead right - not just in the O/P, but in the recording method :)

    When I've finally got the admin of the blogs straight, I'm going to go on to financial admin, which in my case is moving money around to take care of the rates. It's better than not having it, of course, but its **so** fiddly.

    Very fiddly :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I need to get into a routine because life is sooooo busy unless it is routine it goes out the window.

    Plus the guys on here that are successful are not the ones who make lavish occasional payments, it's the little bods who dig their heals in and just plug away that get there..........so every friday is OP day even if it's £1 :D:D:D:D

    They will have just send my statement by UPS :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

  • Just catching up with the discussion. I fully agree that multiple targets are essential. short and medium (2 yrs max for me) are ideal, whilst having half an eye on a few long (5yrs) and dream goals (8-10yrs).

    I like the idea of a weekly update as sometimes that monthly update takes an age to arrive. I suppose I've tried to have a weekly update by OPing the TT pot every Sunday to ensure I have an OP every week, so now I will add to it with a 'weekly activity post'. So consider your idea well and truly piggy-backed!

    As for routines, I've now developed a cracking habit of TTing my account every morning in my 15mins window whilst having my morning cup of tea! I also try to post a very quick update to my diary to simply report that fact!
