This past weekend I participated in a CSAUP with a group called F3 that I am a part of, which stands for Completely Stupid and Utterly Pointless.😂

The challenge was simple: run 1 mile every hour on the hour for 24 hours.

With a little extra here and there, I ended up running 31 miles in 24 hours. 🏃‍♀️‍➡️🏃‍♀️‍➡️🏃‍♀️‍➡️

If you had asked me ahead of time to run 31 miles in a single day, I would have said it was impossible. But when it was broken into manageable steps, one mile at a time: surrounded by accountability, fun, and fellowship, it suddenly became achievable.

It made me think about financial goals.

Many people look at goals like retirement and college savings and feel overwhelmed by the distance between where they are and where they want to be.

But just like that 31-mile run, big goals rarely happen all at once.

They happen when you:
• Break the goal into manageable steps
• Stay consistent over time
• Surround yourself with accountability
• And make the journey enjoyable along the way

At Michigan Financial Planning, we try to do the same thing with finances, and we try to make it a little fun along the way too.

If you’re looking for some accountability with your financial goals, we’d love to help.
