If you’re the type of person who always starts something new on a Monday, we bet you love it when a new financial year rolls around.It’s one of our favourite times of the year too. But tax time can be stressful. That’s why here at RJ Sanderson, we’re big believers in planning ahead to ensure you reach your financial goals throughout the year and do what you need to stress less in June. The best thing about these resolutions is that they are easy and actionable steps that will set you up for the year.
The start of a new financial year is a great time to review what’s important to you and how you’re tracking in those areas. We’ve helped hundreds of clients review their current situation and the overwhelming response is that they’ve gained incredible clarity – personally and financially. The importance of this process enable us to identify your individual priorities and together we formulate a plan to help you achieve more, empowering you to experience your lifestyle potential.
Improve your chance of financial success by setting goals using the SMART method (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Timely). These may be goals related to saving, debt reduction, lifestyle or a new investment. Divide them into short, medium, and long term goals and start taking steps to get them done! Share your goals with your accountant so any taxation benefits or implications can be considered in advance.
It’s well known that we don’t always make the best decisions when we’re hurried or under pressure. Being organised gives you time to consider all your options and make decisions that are suitable for you. Speaking with a financial planner can assist with this process. They consider your current circumstances as well as your future possibilities to provide you with a practical and tangible plan to get ahead. This prior planning means that when a difficult situation arises, your earlier decisions will help to navigate the situation and get you through with minimal stress. Make 2022 the year to make what’s possible, a reality.
