Starting a project.

Starting a project.

Does one start with the big picture or with the minutia? What I mean by this is does one start with the vision of the preferred future or do you start with an action that will make you better off immediately. This really depends on your personal style – some people are activity oriented and some are more of a dreaming type. I guess the answer lies somewhere in between. One does not know what “better off really means if you do not define it some way, so some “bigger picture” thinking must be done early on in the improvement process, otherwise you may be expending energy in going the wrong way; likewise spending too much time on thinking which way to go without commensurate action may also be counter productive.

At this point you must have taken the decision to improve your financial situation – or to put it bluntly – to become wealthy. (personally I do not like the term “rich”, but lets be honest – you are reading this because you want to have a lot of money).
Another aspect of creating a good foundation when starting a project is to document (write down) all the resources that you have available to commit to the project.
