Overflow & Abundance part 2

Here are a few more of my insights about overflow and abundance. .

The position we want to be in is where our income is above our closed circle. This puts us in an overflow position, where we are not living “Paycheque to Paycheque”. The overflow can be used for paying down bad debt, investing, planned giving, or in other areas that will help you achieve your goals. Do not spend your overflow foolishly, otherwise it is the same as living in an open circle. It is best to agree before hand on where the overflow will go. Establish a firm closed circle and use your overflow to live in abundance!

I hope I have given you a clear picture on this topic. If you have comments or questions, please just let me know and I will be glad to help you out. I hope to hear from you soon!

Best regards,

Overflow & Abundance part 1

Over the next few days, I’ll be talking a little bit about Overflow & Abundance that comes from a Closed Circle Budget. Please read on . . .

Our Closed Circle answers the very important question “How much is enough?” The closed circle is broken down into 3 categories; obligations, necessities and wants. Once we have determined our closed circle, we now compare it to our income. If our income is less than our closed circle than adjustments need to be made. We either need more inflow of income or we need to decrease items in our closed circle.
