commitment

I have (shockingly) decided to start my own business - selling Mary Kay. The what, why, who, how, and when of that story will come another day. For now, this is my commitment to myself and to my family:

- The first $50 I make will go back into the checking account to cover the cost of starting up.
- Of every check I receive after that first $50, 10% will go directly to God.
- Until our savings account reaches our family goal, the remaining 90% will go back into savings.
- Once our savings account has been restored, the additional 90% will go toward our debt (our truck note and personal loan).
- Unless there are dire circumstances, no further debt will be incurred until said debts are paid off.

This is my commitment. If I break my word to myself, that's pretty pitiful indeed.

Here goes nothin'.
