Choices

This is something that I have been thinking about for a little while. But it works out because even if not directly, eventually it will answer the question Alison asked in your Comment on my last blog.

On a daily basis we are presented with choices. Most of the time they are simple easy choice that won't really effect much around us not matter what we choose. Like what to have for breakfast, or which route to drive to work. But sometimes we are presented with choices that are life changing choices. Meaning the choice we make can greatly affect our lives and our futures. Sometimes these choices are presented to us whether we like it or now and we are forced to make the choice. Other times they come because of previous choices we have made. And sometimes we choose to make choices to try to improve or change something that we are not currently satisfied with.

It is one of the latter that I am faced with now. It is a choice I have brought upon myself to try to improve life for myself and my family, specifically in the job/financial area. But none the less it is a choice that could deffinatly change how are future looks, depending on the choice I make. Therefore I sitll have not come to a definate decision and I continue to stress about it trying to decide which is going to be better, both in the short and the long run.

As we all know I am one of those eternal students. As a result I have been working a series of dead end jobs and just living paycheck to paycheck. I want this to change. I don't want to worry about whether we are going to run out of money before my next pay day. I don't want to stress about everthing I buy. I want to have money to put in savings, and I want to get out of debt sooner that later. But right now it jsut seems like we can't get ahead. The end of school is near, but with little financial aid it makes it hard to fly, and pushes that graduation date continually further out. So I have decided if I want a change I need to make a change. I can't continue to do the same things and expect different results.

So I have thought about it. Trying to come up with a change I can make that will disrupt our normal life as little as possible but give us a better result financially speeking. I have come up with three main things. But rather than have this a huge long blog, I will write a little more about what those are in my next blog.
