Charting Your Course: Goal Setting as Your Compass to Financial Readiness
By Dr. Erin Towner, Lead Master Resilience Trainer – Performance Expert
Soldiers and their Family members know how important planning and preparation are. From mission
readiness to running a household, if you want to be successful, you need to set goals and make a plan to
achieve them. Just as you wouldn’t embark on a mission without a clear destination and a detailed plan,
you shouldn’t navigate your financial future without defined goals and a road map to get there. Goal
setting acts as the compass that guides your financial journey, providing direction, motivation and a
framework for making smart choices.
