As we begin a new year, many going through divorce are facing a changed life in 2014. As you think about your life post-divorce, it’s important to consider both your short-term and long-term needs.

There is no better time than the New Year to put together your goals for this year and your new life. It is important, when going through a divorce, that you have a clear vision of what you want both out of the divorce and for yourself going forward.

• Think about where you want to be in 5 years. What do you need to do to get there?
• Consider seeking counseling for divorce recovery.
• Consider life coaching.
• Join a church or support group for divorced individuals.
• Prepare a detailed budget.
• Meet with a financial planner.
• Start a savings account for your children’s college expenses.
• Pay off debt.
• Attend Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University.
• Put each of your goals in writing.

Change is difficult, but it can also be a positive. Take this opportunity to get your life on the right track and set yourself up for future success.
