“I'm overwhelmed by debt and I don't see a way out.”

The way out is not visible all at once — and it doesn't need to be. Living within your financial bounds right now is the only place to start. The debt got built over time; it gets addressed the same way.

Your Practice

Write down every debt you have on one sheet of paper — nothing hidden. Then circle the one smallest item. Focus only on that one first. The goal today is not to solve all of it — it's to stop making it worse and take one concrete step forward.

The Architects

“Rather go to bed supperless than rise in debt.”

Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard's Almanack
