Your Future, Rewritten A Plan for a Dream-Driven Path
If you could change your life today , how would you do it? No matter how happy or successful we may be in life, we all have things we wish could be changed for the better. Maybe it’s losing a few pounds or getting out more, or maybe it’s being a more present spouse, parent, or friend. Perhaps a major career change is in order, or perhaps you want to finally write that great American novel you’ve been thinking about for years. No matter what your goals are, today is truly the only time you have to start making your dreams a reality. This idea has been on my mind a lot lately, especially since Aug. 28 marks the 63rd anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech and September is National Self-
Improvement Month. Dr. King’s words still ring true today as a reminder of humanity’s greatest potential, while Self-Improvement Month encourages us as individuals to discover and pursue possibilities within ourselves. Both involve turning our dreams into reality. As for my dreams, keeping Bott & Associates thriving for years to come is my biggest professional goal. As you’ll see in this month’s cover article, we have new, younger team members here who will grow with us for the long term. Our firm will be around for a long time, and it’s exciting for me to know the best is yet to come. Now, I turn it over to you . What are your dreams at this stage of life? What are your dreams for your children or grandchildren? Have you set a plan into
motion to improve yourself through better financial management or estate planning? Will your legacy include things that will help your loved ones reach their goals and fulfill their dreams? In honor of Dr. King and National Self- Improvement Month, I encourage you to seriously consider these questions and put whatever answer you find into motion now. If Bott & Associates can help you chart a clearer course for making any of your dreams (and those of the people dearest to you) easier to achieve, we’d be honored. We’re always just a call away.
