THAT'S A LOT!

The first day of Business Statistic's class my sophomore year of college, the professor ask me a simple question. A question I answered incorrect, however a question I will never forget. He ask, "The Coca Cola Bottling Company runs a test on fifteen 20oz bottles of Coca Cola. They find that fourteen of the fifteen bottles contained 20.01 ounces of fluid. Is this a problem?" I quickly answered that Coca Cola would not view this as a problem due to the fact they must know that their machines would not be exact. He immediately began to laugh and ask me another question. He said, "Mr. Mac, if I told you that there is 1.6 billion servings of Coke per day?" I told him I would like to change my answer.
The truth in that statement is if the machines where only off by a little, in a very short time it would make a lot. The same holds true for our lives. Think about it:
A little practice each day at a new hobby makes you better every day.
A little time with family each day builds lasting relationships.
A little exercise each day can add years to your life.
A little saved each month can bring you years of financial stability.
We have always heard it's the little things in life. I am not sure there is a more valid statement.
When it comes to our finances, it is definitely the little things that count. Take an audit of your finances. See what little things we can do to stop having Too Much Month. Maybe we could turn the air off during the day, limit our shower times, turn the water off while brushing our teeth, car pool, turn a light off when we leave the room. If we can simply cut our budget by a few dollars each month, before long we will have money at the end of your month.

Thanks.

Starting Back...

After taking some time off to prepare for a speaking engagement and some time off for work, the TOO MUCH MONTH blog will return to full speed next week. I truly look forward to what we have to come. I wish everyone a happy Easter and may each of us realize we serve an amazing Savior. God Bless.

Thanks.
