This is the third key of seven in the Debt Warriors Special Series, “7 Keys To Successful Debt Management and Settlement.”
Today we’ll share the importance of taking action as a Consumer.
Credit and Debt Management are like dieting in a number of ways.
- Just as you have to watch what you eat, you also have to monitor your accounts.
- With dieting, if you don’t exercise regularly you will not only gain weight, but you will loose muscle and strength. With Credit and Debt Management, if you don’t take action and exercise your Rights, you will gain Debt.
- Gaining weight and increasing debt are easy. Losing weight and eliminating debt takes much more effort.
- Sometimes the weight you loose can be regained and then some. Sometimes with Credit Management, a removed false negative account can reappear on your Credit Report.
Action is the Key
With Credit Management and weight loss, one of the Key’s to meeting your goals (“winning”) is action. Just as you have to engage in the Battle over your bulge, you’ll have to initiate a Battle for control over your budget. For years, I was inactive. I tipped the scales at over 330 pounds.
It wasn’t until I learned how to enjoy meeting the challenges of loosing weight that I lost 50 pounds. I learned to look forward to the opportunity to exercise more often. Whereas, before I used to find any old reason not to exercise. Now I get up, with excitement at the chance to win my battle over my bulge.
When I worked at the Bankruptcy Prevention Law Firm, at first I didn’t know anything about my Rights as a Consumer. Before then, my Credit wasn’t in a crisis, but it was in pretty bad shape. That’s because I knew nothing about budgeting, debt analysis, negotiation and settlement. But over time and with action, I’ve become an expert on all of the above.
