in Debt free diaries
I'm back and I've got a plan of action to get my s**t together for once and for all. 

I'm totally sick of always chasing my tail and struggling with money due to making stupid decisions and focusing on other peoples needs and wants. 

It's time to put myself and my plans for myself into action. 

I'm going to be in this for the long haul and I've learned that becoming debt free is only one part of the journey and the hardest part is actually staying that way!

This will be the last time though for me and I'm putting plans in place to get myself mortgage free too.

I'm going to get some plans written down and start working my way towards achieving them from today!
