2014 taught me...

• TAKE CARE OF MY MONEY: Never be on E when it comes to your money.
• TAKE CARE OF ALL MY POSSESSIONS: from cleaning my sneakers to cleaning my car. God will not gift you better until you take care of your current BEST.
• KEEP MY HOME CLEAN AND COZY: It should never take you longer than 15 minutes to clean up your whole home at once. Keep laundry down, sweep and vacuum floors daily, do dishes as they need to be done and have a wipe down day. (Mines is usually Sunday or Saturday morning)
• SAVE MONEY: Don't just keep ten dollars in your account, time to start a big girl savings. Start small save 10-20% of your check or allowance.
• MAKE DECISIONS THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY EVEN WHEN IT DISHEARTENS YOU A BIT: Choosing one opportunity over a different will have to happen a lot with a busy schedule.
• EVERY TIME YOU MISS A WORKOUT, YOU GAIN A POUND: It's easier to stay in shape the YOUNGER you are, and you are NOT getting younger.
• BE GRATEFUL: My biggest lesson this year, be grateful for the little things, for the big things, for your characteristics, for your family and friends, for your position in life and for your past decisions.
• READ: Read, read, read. Invest in a library card. It's a free investment. No matter what you're reading, your mind is being stimulated.
• THE OLDER YOU GET, THE MORE CONVENIENT A BIG PURSE IS.
• START PHOTO ALBUMS: For holidays and trips and some just for the entire year. 
• COUPONS: Don't be afraid to use coupons or "get one free" with this purchase tickets. 
• ALWAYS WRITE: With a pencil (pen) and paper. Make your to do list, let out your anger or joy. Take notes in church... writing is the best way to install memory.
• KEEP IN CONTACT WITH FAMILY: I have grown from my family the older I have gotten so I feel the importance of them now more than ever, especially since I am in love with the idea of having a huge family and huge family get togethers. Cherish yours.
