You see it doesn’t matter how long it takes to pay off your debt or save for retirement

the important thing is that you make the effort because if you never start you’ll never finish

Goals provide you direction to help steer your life towards the things that matter to you most

Create smart financial goals that you can use right now as the foundation for your financial success.

SMART stands for specific, measurable, achievable, relevant or realistic and timed goals.

Think about which one sounds better to you?

Goal number one  -

save money for retirement

or...

I will put away $416 and 67 cents per month into my Kiwisaver

so that I will have $5,000 by the end of this year.

You see the more specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and timed your goal is,

the more likely you will be able to achieve it.

For example, I will reduce my monthly expenses by $100 a month by cancelling my gym membership and SKY TV.

Goal Number 2 – I will save $100 a month in my savings account so that I have $1200 by the end of this year.

Goal Number 3

into my Kiwisaver

I will put away $208.33 per month

so that by the end of this year

I will have 
$2,500

Remember to review your goals every 30 days

and make any updates

this will get you one step closer

to achieving your goals, no matter how big.
