So yesterday I asked about the one place where you won't cut back. Today I'm wondering what is *one thing* you can do today that will help you stay on track to reduce your debt.

Sometimes that one thing is an action: call a creditor, pay a bill, etc. Sometimes that one thing is an inaction: don't debt, don't shop, etc.

While our situations can sometimes seem overwhelming, there is always *one thing* we can do to make the situation a teeny tiny bit better one day at a time. It won't necessarily solve all our problems, but it's a small step in the right direction.

What is your one thing today? Did you or will you do it?

All my best,

I did laundry. I know - you're thinking, "Huh?"

Sometimes getting my physical environment organized helps me keep my financial mind organized. And since I wanted to be here to get the clothes out of the dryer when they were done, I didn't go out to eat, so I guess that action led to a desired inaction!

I think the one thing I should do is update my Quicken.

I actually did my stock up on Dh's and Ds's vitamins today.
