In order to get somewhere from where you are you must first know where you stand.

I find that most people have no clue where they are going or where they stand.

You must know both if you want to get somewhere on purpose.

You will end up somewhere either way, but not usually where you want to be without knowing end caps.

A few things to take stock in include:

– Net Worth
– Blood Markers
– Body Composition
– Monthly Expenses
– Monthly Income
– Savings Account Balances
– Investment Account Balances
– Where your time is spent

These are just a handful of the many things you can measure.

Once you know where you are it is far easier to put together a plan on how to get where you want to go.

Taking stock quarterly is a good habit to get into.
