Step 3 Tips for Success
- Adjust your tracking and tabulation systems as needed to fit your personality and habits, but do keep tracking and summarizing each month. It might take a while to find a system that feels comfortable for you.
- Be flexible when working with household members – it can take time for others to understand the benefits of tracking and tabulation and to find a system that takes everyone’s personalities and habits into account.
- Create categories that are meaningful to you and your life. Change them when appropriate for your goals.
- Make notes in your journal about your insights, feelings and observations as you track your life energy.
- Learn about the variety of methods people use for their tracking and monthly tabulations. See the Financial Integrity website for more ideas.
