Final Thoughts

January 2, 2025

I’m focusing on financial clarity and intentionality as the week kicks off. Setting financial goals has been a grounding practice for me.

This week, I’m focusing on two key areas: limiting impulse purchases (those random Amazon clicks!) and allocating more funds toward long-term savings. I will be paid by the year's end another portion of funds for work completed, and I recently signed a new contract with a school.

I am excited to continue my work with Marco with hopes of completing my goal of having zero debt beyond my student loans and mortgage upon graduation. Debt is a reality for many of us, and I’m no exception. This week, I’m doubling down on staying consistent with my repayment plan. I’m reminding myself that every dollar counts toward financial freedom. This will make my life so much easier, but I am unsure how much of a reality this would have been without my participation in Project Money.

By the end of the week, I’ll review how well I stuck to my goals and what adjustments I need moving forward. It’s all about progress, not perfection. I know that being intentional with my money helps me not just financially but mentally—it’s one less thing to stress about.
