1. Don’t try to change him. As frustrating as it sometimes can be, you and I both know we can’t really change a man. We can demand changes, but they will only really change if they want to make a change. A man truly accepts a woman when he feels that she genuinely accepts him for who he is.

1. Your Money or Your Life by Vicky Robin and Joe Dominguez “If you live for having it all, what you have is never enough.” Many people do not set priorities on how they run their expenses.

Take a chance on making a difference. “I’m just one person! What could I possibly do to make a difference?” This defeatist question will halt your progress in its tracks. Yes, you are just one person, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t capable of leaving a mark.
