A big part of PF blogging is focusing on improvement and goal-setting: maxing out the Roth, building the E-fund, saving for/purchasing a home. I love goals, especially the part where you accomplish them. But when we become too focused on improving and reaching for something that’s in the future, it becomes very easy to lose sight of what we have accomplished so far and what we’re enjoying in the present. I was eating vanilla ice cream and pretzels (it’s a PA thing) on my couch a few minutes ago, and I looked around my apartment and realized that I’m really proud of myself for the things that I’ve accomplished so far, financial and otherwise. I’m going to take this moment to list the things I’m proud of, to remind myself of how far I’ve come and to encourage all my fellow PF bloggers to do the same.
