can be applied to making money and growing it. So, being a mother of three with an in- dependent minded attitude I have had to change my mantra to fit my vision of a successful retirement. It sounds a little like Nasa Mission


Control’s famous line mixed with Helen Keller’s insight and Eleanor Roosevelt’s amazing logic. It goes like this: “Failure is not an option, I continue to


build character through trial and suffering (error) and will not let fear prevent me from doing something because it will only result in unattained achievement and wealth. I will continue to search for knowledge and put my emotions on the back burner when it comes to money...so that my children can reap the benefits of what is left when I die and recall my per- severance when in need of their own.”


Much of why I live by this mantra is


because I believe that how you think de- termines how you act. Our actions stem from our belief system. Our belief sys- tems were most likely formed at a very young age. We have to understand that we can change our belief systems by attaining correct knowledge and watching our ac- tions.


Some of the actions we can take as women are:


1. Keep track of how you are using and losing your money, not just your check book but your investments too.


2. Budget! Do your bill paying using a system like Microsoft Money or Quicken.


3. Always put 10% away in an investment or savings...even if you have debt!
