Getting Started with Organizing Your Time and Tasks
As many of you know, I’m a pretty avid tracker of my tasks and the things I need to do. I do it mostly because I need to get those things out of my head — where they distract me and keep me from focusing and sometimes are forgotten — and into some kind of trusted system, where I know they’ll be there for me later.
Over and over again in my life, I’ve found that being distracted by things I need to remember, forgetting things I need to do and missing appointments has cost me time, money, relationships and opportunities, and as my life has become more and more full over the years, I’ve had to gradually evolve my systems and practices for doing these things.
How to Control Your Impulse Buys
One of the biggest challenges I had to overcome during my own financial turnaround was the instinct I used when deciding whether to buy something. That instinct provided pretty good guidance during an earlier phase in my life when I had very little money to spend, but once I moved to a better paying job after graduating from college, that instinct that I had come to trust proved disastrous.
Basically, my old instinct operated like this: if I felt like I wanted something, and I felt like I had enough money to buy it, I bought it.

The Simple Garden: How to Start Your Own Garden
Recently, I’ve written a few articles on gardening and the frugal value it provides, particularly this one on how how to start a garden without a backyard. While this advice works well for many situations, it doesn’t address small living quarters. What do you do if you don’t have any balcony space, or you live in a very tiny apartment and don’t have room for much?
I hunted through some of my gardening books and my own many years of gardening experience (starting with helping my father grow seedlings and raise vegetables as a very young boy) and tried to come up with the simplest garden I could think of, and I think this is about as simple as I can get.

Delivery Driver Auto Insurance: What You Need to Know
The COVID-19 pandemic has created a growing demand for drivers to deliver groceries, medications and restaurant meals. Making deliveries means spending more time on the road, which increases your risk of an accident and your insurer’s risk of paying a claim.
Insurance for a personal automobile used for deliveries differs from covering a car for personal use. You must meet state and employer requirements while navigating through policy exclusions that could nullify your coverage when you need to file a claim.
Do delivery drivers need commercial car insurance or does a personal auto policy provide adequate coverage? Find out below.
