Formula for Success... and then some. The top people do what's expected of them, and then some. They are thoughtful and considerate of others, and then some.

And so it is when we do what is assigned to us in our lives and in the church, and then some; then the Lord pays in full, and then some.

Success with money, family, relationships, health, and careers is the ability to reach your personal objectives in the shortest time, with the least effort and with the fewest mistakes. The goals you set for yourself and the strategies you choose become your blueprint or plan. Strategies are like recipes: choose the right ingredients, mix them in the correct proportions, and you will always produce the same predictable results: in this case financial success. The success strategies for managing money and building wealth are called Money Strategies. By learning to use money strategies as a part of your day-to-day life, financial frustration and failure will become a thing of the past.
