Instead of planning for the future we want, we end up firefighting in a reality we don’t! Too many times, we neglect our health and out longer-term plans simply because it’s inconvenient. We’re all guilty to some extent or another.

Whether we’re looking to remortgage our homes, re-structure personal debt, write a will, or move home, the important things upon which all else depends has a habit of being delayed and postponed, simply because we can’t find time in our busy lives to start the ball rolling.
