The Dynamic Debt Destroyer - 230 DSR

You can’t borrower your way out of debt. There’s only one way to get rid of it. Pay it off. 1) What where do I start? Stop borrowing money. Send your Visa & Master Card divorce papers. 2) Which debt should I pay off first? Smallest balance first, regardless of interest rate. Pre-paying neutralizes compounding interest on revolving debts.

The 2 Biggest Distractions - 229 DSR

What do you spend most of your time thinking about? In this discussion I’ll venture to say you spend most of your time thinking about Sex (early age) and then Money (as you mature) and then both. 1) What is sex? Six = Earthly matters. 666 The number of the beast. Animal, of the earth. Division. A seed fertilizes an egg. That one cell divides into two, etc. Two become one then one becomes two.

Tyranny Thru Complexity - 226 DSR

The more complicated you make your finances, the more the tyranny of their complexity can rule your life. 1) What you see vs what you think. If it’s a mess on the outside, it’s a mess on the inside. House, car, clothes, garage, body, finances. No different. 2) The un-manifest and the manifest. What hasn’t shown up vs what has shown up vs what you think and do they match? If not, this can cause anxiety. 3) Write down your income vs your expenses. POP your finances. Put it on paper. Take what you’...
