Tomorrow is the deadline to enter the FNBO Pay Yourself First Challenge. There’s a bit of money on the line. In fact, the grand prize winner will bring in $13,000 when it’s all said and done.
*sigh*
I’ve been trying to make a video using iMovie, but I am not very creative in the movie-making department. I can make a mean cherry picker and I was able to combine green and purple for the colors for this blog, but that’s about it for creative ideas from me.
We’re also pretty boring when it comes to what we want to save for. There’s no real goal except to have a lovely cushion of cash so we can sleep better at night knowing it is there. Let’s see…if we won the $13K we’d pay off the rest of our debt (about $8K) and that would leave $5K for savings. Add that to the almost $4K in there and we’d have $9K.
I still am not used to the fact we have over $3K in a savings account. I can’t even imagine having close to $10K!
I’m hoping a creative idea will come to me tonight. If not, I guess I will not be entering the contest. There are already some really creative videos there. By the way – have any of you entered the contest? If so, please leave a link to your video in the comments. I’d love to see them!
I hope you’re able to land on an idea and enter. Compared to many contests, odds are pretty good of winning something. You can check out my video and vote 🙂 at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zuKN4Glz2s
I think your blog is brilliant. I hope you can pay your debt off soon. God bless.
Let it sit in the back of your mind… an idea might pop out when you least expect it. I try that whenever I need to come up with something creative.
Good Luck
Hi Tricia,
“The reason more people don’t get ahead is because when opportunity comes knocking, they’re in the back yard looking for four leaf clovers.”
In other words, why were you spending time and energy stressing about a video contest when you say you’re not creative about making videos?
cheers,
Ken
