Consider using debt elimination tips to help improve your financial situation … after all, getting rid of your credit card debt works in your favor. These tips can help save you loads of time and guilt! When you are in over your head in debt, I think one of the hardest things to deal with is the guilt. You feel guilty when you …
- can’t maintain your minimum payments
- are constantly late on payments
- spend money
- can’t afford extras
Essentially, you feel guilty when you do, and you feel guilty when you don’t. So how do you react when you feel guilty? Do you …
- become defensive?
- hide from the mail or telephone?
- get aggressive?
- get angry?
- spend more?
- lie to your spouse or your creditors?
- make promises you know you can’t keep?
Did you know guilt stresses you? And excessive stress is not only hard on your mind and attitude, which can bring about depression, but it is also very hard on your body. Stress creates wear and tear on your organs, nerves and muscles … every part of your body. It prevents you from getting a good nights sleep, and can also accelerate aging and disease.
You have enough to handle just dealing with your debt, let the guilt go. Just put it aside and handle each day as it comes, each piece of mail, every telephone call. Resolve not to let them stress you, set up a plan to handle your debt with your spouse, and move on.
Once you acknowledge you have a debt problem, and get the help you need, believe me, you will see a huge difference in your attitude and how you deal with life, and debt.
This one debt elimination tip will help you more in dealing with creditors and debt collectors, and taking the strong approach needed to get out of debt, than any other tip that can be offered!
