  But
• 2:05
  we're
• 2:05
  going
• 2:05
  to
• 2:05
  do
• 2:05
  it

  stress.
• 2:09
  Don't
• 2:09
  down
• 2:09
  the
• 2:10
  road.
• 2:10
  So
• 2:11
  today's
• 2:11
  big
• 2:11
  question
• 2:11
  is
• 2:12
  how
• 2:12
  can

  getting
• 2:12

• 2:13

  you're

  me
• 2:18
  a
• 2:18
  lot
• 2:18
  of
• 2:18
  stress
• 2:19
  too.
• 2:19
  Well,
• 2:20
  maybe
• 2:20
  you
• 2:20
  have
• 2:20
  this
• 2:20
  feeling.
• 2:21
  It's
• 2:21
  April
• 2:22
  and
• 2:22
  tax
• 2:23
  season
• 2:23
  is
• 2:23
  in
• 2:23
  full
• 2:24
  swing.
• 2:25
  You're
• 2:25
  sitting
• 2:25
  there,
• 2:25
  you're
• 2:26
  scrambling
• 2:26
  through
• 2:26
  piles
• 2:27
  of
• 2:27
  papers.
• 2:27
  You're
• 2:28
  searching
• 2:28
  for
• 2:28
  those
• 2:28
  lost
• 2:29
  statements.
• 2:30
  You've
• 2:30
  got
• 2:30
  that
• 2:30
  meeting
• 2:31
  with
• 2:31
  somebody
• 2:31
  like
• 2:31
  me.
• 2:31
  Or
• 2:32
  maybe
• 2:32
  you're
• 2:32
  where
• 2:32
  you're
• 2:33
  working
• 2:33
  on
• 2:33
  the
• 2:33
  weekends
• 2:33
  to
• 2:33
  get
• 2:34
  your
• 2:34
  taxes
• 2:34
  done.
• 2:34
  You're
• 2:35
  trying
• 2:35
  to
• 2:35
  remember
• 2:35
  those
• 2:36
  donations
• 2:36
  and
• 2:37
  trying
• 2:37
  to
• 2:37
  find
• 2:37
  all
• 2:38
  of
• 2:38
  those
• 2:38
  expense
• 2:39
  receipts.
• 2:40
  And
• 2:40
  that
• 2:41
  tax
• 2:41
  season
• 2:41
  struggle,
• 2:42
  it
• 2:42
  feels
• 2:42
  chaotic,
• 2:43
  it
• 2:43
  feels
• 2:43
  stressful.
• 2:44
  You
• 2:44
  feel
• 2:44
  like
• 2:44
  you're
• 2:44
  rushed
• 2:45
  due
• 2:45
  to
• 2:45
  scattered
• 2:46
  documents
• 2:46
  and
• 2:47
  really
• 2:47
  truthfully
• 2:48
  incomplete
• 2:48
  records.
• 2:50
  And
• 2:50
  if
• 2:50
  you're
• 2:50
  not
• 2:50
  careful,
• 2:51
  that
• 2:51
  can
• 2:51
  lead
• 2:51
  to
• 2:51
  misdeductions.
• 2:52
  It
• 2:52
  can
• 2:53
  lead
• 2:53
  to
• 2:53
  frantic
• 2:54
  scrambling
• 2:54
  and
• 2:55
  fear
• 2:55
  of
• 2:55
  errors
• 2:56
  or
• 2:56
  audits
• 2:56
  and
• 2:57
  Listen,
• 2:57
  I
• 2:57
  do
• 2:58
  this
• 2:58
  for
• 2:58
  a
• 2:58
  living.
• 2:58
  Nobody
• 2:59
  wants
• 2:59
  an
• 2:59
  audit.
• 3:00
  And
• 3:01
  it
• 3:01
  puts
• 3:01
  this
• 3:01
  heavy
• 3:02
  burden
• 3:02
  of
• 3:02
  anxiety
• 3:03
  on
• 3:03
  you
• 3:03
  and
• 3:03
  this
• 3:04
  disorganization
• 3:05
  surrounding
• 3:05
  your
• 3:06
  taxes.
• 3:07
  And
• 3:07
  if
• 3:07
  you're
• 3:07
  not
• 3:08
  careful,
• 3:08
  that
• 3:08
  will
• 3:09
  hinder
• 3:09
  peace
• 3:10
  and
• 3:10
  it
• 3:10
  truly
• 3:11
  gets
• 3:11
  in
• 3:11
  the
• 3:11
  way
• 3:11
  of
• 3:12
  efficient
• 3:12
  management.
• 3:13
  But
• 3:13
  here's
• 3:14
  the
• 3:14
  thing.
• 3:15
  Tax
• 3:15
  preparation
• 3:16
  shouldn't
• 3:16
  be
• 3:16
  this
• 3:17
  one
• 3:17
  time
• 3:17
  scramble.
• 3:18
  If
• 3:19
  you
• 3:19
  want
• 3:19
  to
• 3:19
  do
• 3:19
  it
• 3:19
  right.
• 3:20
  It's
• 3:20
  really
• 3:20
  a
• 3:20
  year
• 3:21
  round
• 3:21
  process
• 3:21
  of
• 3:22
  diligent
• 3:22
  record
• 3:23
  keeping
• 3:23
  on
• 3:23
  a
• 3:24
  week
• 3:24
  by
• 3:24
  week
• 3:24
  or
• 3:24
  at
• 3:24
  least
• 3:25
  month
• 3:25
  to
• 3:25
  month
• 3:25
  basis.
• 3:27
  Because
• 3:27
  organization
• 3:28
  brings
• 3:28
  clarity,
• 3:29
  organization
• 3:30
  reduces
• 3:31
  stress.
• 3:31
  And
• 3:31
  hey,
• 3:31
  let
• 3:31
  me
• 3:31
  just
• 3:32
  tell
• 3:32
  you
• 3:32
  something
• 3:32
  right
• 3:32
  now.
• 3:33
  Organization
• 3:34
  ensures
• 3:35
  what
• 3:35
  the
• 3:35
  main
• 3:36
  principle
• 3:36
  of
• 3:36
  the
• 3:36
  show
• 3:37
  is.
• 3:37
  And
• 3:37
  that's
• 3:38
  why
• 3:38
  stewardship.
• 3:39
  Well,
• 3:39
  let's
• 3:40
  look
• 3:40
  at
• 3:40
  a
• 3:40
  few
• 3:40
  biblical
• 3:41
  examples
• 3:41
  right
• 3:41
  from
• 3:42
  the
• 3:42
  Bible.
• 3:42
  The
• 3:43
  first
• 3:43
  one,
• 3:43
  the
• 3:43
  first
• 3:43
  principle,
• 3:44
  let's
• 3:44
  talk
• 3:44
  about
• 3:44
  orderliness,
• 3:46
  that's
• 3:46
  a
• 3:46
  big
• 3:46
  word.
• 3:46
  But
• 3:47
  thought
• 3:47
  that
• 3:47
  was
• 3:47
  so
• 3:48
  important
• 3:48
  for
• 3:48
  what
• 3:48
  we're
• 3:48
  talking
• 3:49
  about
• 3:49
  today.
• 3:49
  So
• 3:50
  look
• 3:50
  at
• 3:50
  the
• 3:50
  book
• 3:50
  of
• 3:51
  First
• 3:51
  Corinthians,
• 3:52
  chapter
• 3:52
  14,
• 3:53
  verse
• 3:54
  40.
• 3:54
  And
• 3:54
  it
• 3:54
  says
• 3:55
  this.
• 3:55
  But
• 3:56
  everything
• 3:56
  should
• 3:56
  be
• 3:57
  done
• 3:57
  in
• 3:57
  a
• 3:57
  fitting
• 3:58
  and
• 3:58
  orderly
• 3:58
  way.
• 3:59
  Hey,
• 3:59
  as
• 4:00
  a
• 4:00
  type
• 4:00
  A
• 4:00
  personality,
• 4:01
  I
• 4:01
  love
• 4:01
  the
• 4:01
  idea
• 4:02
  of
• 4:02
  fitting
• 4:02
  and
• 4:03
  orderly.
• 4:04
  And
• 4:04
  the
• 4:04
  application
• 4:05
  of
• 4:05
  this
• 4:05
  is
• 4:06
  pretty
• 4:06
  strong
• 4:06
  as
• 4:06
  it
• 4:06
  relates
• 4:07
  to
• 4:07
  taxes.
• 4:08
  And
• 4:08
  honestly,
• 4:09
  for
• 4:09
  your
• 4:09
  whole
• 4:10
  financial
• 4:10
  life,
• 4:11
  an

  orderly
• 4:12
  financial
• 4:12
  record

  system
• 4:14
  is
• 4:14
  a
• 4:14
  wise
• 4:15
  application.
• 4:16
  It
• 4:16
  just
• 4:17
  is.
• 4:17
  So
• 4:17
  if
• 4:17
  you
• 4:17
  want
• 4:18
  to,
• 4:18
  you
• 4:18
  want
• 4:18
  to
• 4:18
  follow
• 4:19
  the
• 4:19
  biblical
• 4:19
  principle
• 4:20
  here,
• 4:20
  everything
• 4:21
  should
• 4:21
  be
• 4:21
  done
• 4:21
  in
• 4:21
  a
• 4:22
  fitting
• 4:22
  and
• 4:22
  orderly
• 4:23
  way.
• 4:23
  Let's
• 4:23
  look
• 4:23
  at
• 4:23
  another
• 4:24
  biblical
• 4:24
  principle,
• 4:25
  and
• 4:25
  that's
• 4:25
  diligence.
• 4:26
  And
• 4:26
  I
• 4:26
  use
• 4:26
  this
• 4:27
  particular
• 4:27
  Bible
• 4:28
  verse
• 4:28
  from
• 4:28
  the
• 4:28
  book
• 4:29
  of
• 4:29
  Proverbs,
• 4:29
  chapter
• 4:30
  21:5
• 4:31
  on
• 4:31
  the
• 4:31
  show
• 4:31
  all
• 4:32
  the
• 4:32
  time
• 4:32
  says
• 4:33
  this.
• 4:33
  The
• 4:34
  plans
• 4:34
  of
• 4:34
  the
• 4:34
  diligent
• 4:35
  lead
• 4:35
  to
• 4:35
  profit
• 4:36
  as
• 4:37
  surely
• 4:37
  as
• 4:37
  haste
• 4:38
  leads
• 4:38
  to
• 4:39
  poverty.
• 4:40
  And
• 4:41
  how
• 4:41
  does
• 4:41
  that
• 4:41
  fit
• 4:41
  today?
• 4:42
  Well,
• 4:42
  it
• 4:42
  fits
• 4:42
  like
• 4:42
  this.
• 4:43
  Diligent
• 4:44
  tax
• 4:44
  recordkeeping
• 4:45
  is
• 4:45
  a
• 4:45
  plan.
• 4:45
  See,
• 4:46
  it's
• 4:46
  all
• 4:46
  about
• 4:46
  planning.
• 4:47
  It's
• 4:48
  all
• 4:48
  about
• 4:48
  not
• 4:48
  waiting
• 4:49
  to
• 4:49
  the
• 4:49
  last
• 4:49
  minute,
• 4:50
  you
• 4:50
  know,
• 4:50
  and
• 4:50
  having
• 4:50
  that,
• 4:50
  that
• 4:51
  shoebox,
• 4:51
  if
• 4:52
  you
• 4:52
  will,
• 4:52
  that's
• 4:52
  kind
• 4:53
  of
• 4:53
  a
• 4:53
  funny
• 4:53
  thing
• 4:54
  in
• 4:54
  our
• 4:54
  trade
• 4:54
  is
• 4:54
  a
• 4:55
  shoebox
• 4:55
  that
• 4:55
  people
• 4:55
  bring
• 4:56
  in
• 4:56
  with
• 4:56
  all
• 4:56
  their
• 4:56
  receipts.
• 4:58
  But
• 4:58
  diligent
• 4:59
  tax
• 4:59
  record
• 4:59
  keeping,
• 5:00
  that
• 5:01
  plan
• 5:01
  can
• 5:02
  lead
• 5:02
  to
• 5:02
  financial
• 5:02
  profit.
• 5:03
  See,
• 5:03
  it
• 5:03
  pays
• 5:04
  itself
• 5:04
  in
• 5:04
  dividends.
• 5:05
  Well,
• 5:06
  let's
• 5:06
  look
• 5:06
  at
• 5:06
  the
• 5:06
  third
• 5:06
  biblical
• 5:07
  principle,
• 5:07
  and
• 5:07
  that's
• 5:07
  accountability.
• 5:08
  Hey,
• 5:08
  we
• 5:09
  all
• 5:09
  need
• 5:09
  to
• 5:09
  be
• 5:09
  accountable.
• 5:10
  Let's
• 5:10
  look
• 5:10
  at
• 5:11
  the
• 5:11
  book
• 5:11
  of
• 5:11
  Romans,
• 5:12
  chapter
• 5:12
  13,
• 5:13
  verse
• 5:13
  7,
• 5:13
  because
• 5:14
  it
• 5:14
  instructs
• 5:14
  us
• 5:15
  this,
• 5:16
  give
• 5:16
  to
• 5:16
  everyone
• 5:17
  what
• 5:17
  you
• 5:17
  owe
• 5:18
  them.
• 5:18
  If
• 5:18
  revenue,
• 5:19
  then
• 5:19
  revenue,
• 5:20
  if
• 5:20
  respect,
• 5:21
  then
• 5:21
  respect.
• 5:22
  And
• 5:22
  this
• 5:22
  is
• 5:23
  often
• 5:23
  talked
• 5:23
  about,
• 5:24
  give
• 5:24
  unto
• 5:24
  Caesar
• 5:25
  what
• 5:25
  is
• 5:25
  due
• 5:25
  to
• 5:25
  Caesar
• 5:26
  as
• 5:26
  it
• 5:26
  talks
• 5:26
  to
• 5:26
  taxes.
• 5:28
  But
• 5:28
  it
• 5:28
  also
• 5:28
  directly
• 5:29
  gets
• 5:30
  into
• 5:30
  that
• 5:31
  faithfully
• 5:32
  managing
• 5:32
  your
• 5:32
  tax
• 5:33
  obligations.
• 5:34
  Because
• 5:35
  all
• 5:35
  of
• 5:35
  these
• 5:35
  things
• 5:36
  lead
• 5:36
  us
• 5:36
  to
• 5:36
  this
• 5:37
  big
• 5:37
  thing
• 5:37
  and
• 5:37
  that's
• 5:38
  getting
• 5:38
  organized
• 5:39
  for
• 5:39
  taxes
• 5:39
  now.
• 5:40
  Not
• 5:41
  waiting
• 5:41
  till
• 5:41
  the
• 5:41
  last
• 5:41
  minute,
• 5:42
  not
• 5:42
  waiting
• 5:42
  to,
• 5:43
  you
• 5:43
  know,
• 5:43
  it's
• 5:43
  tax
• 5:43
  season,
• 5:44
  I
• 5:44
  gotta
• 5:44
  go
• 5:44
  scramble
• 5:45
  and
• 5:45
  find
• 5:45
  that
• 5:45
  stuff.
• 5:46
  But
• 5:46
  getting
• 5:47
  organized
• 5:47
  for
• 5:48
  taxes
• 5:48
  now
• 5:48
  is
• 5:48
  an
• 5:49
  act
• 5:49
  of
• 5:49
  responsible
• 5:50
  stewardship.
• 5:51
  And
• 5:52
  in
• 5:52
  the
• 5:52
  end
• 5:52
  the
• 5:52
  benefit
• 5:53
  is
• 5:53
  this.
• 5:54
  It's
• 5:54
  going
• 5:54
  to
• 5:54
  ensure
• 5:54
  that
• 5:54
  you
• 5:55
  have
• 5:55
  accurate
• 5:55
  obligations,
• 5:56
  it's
• 5:57
  going
• 5:57
  to
• 5:57
  optimize
• 5:57
  your
• 5:58
  financial
• 5:58
  position
• 5:58
  and
• 5:59
  hey,
• 5:59
  if
• 5:59
  you
• 5:59
  do
• 6:00
  it
• 6:00
  right,
• 6:00
  it's
• 6:01
  going
• 6:01
  to
• 6:01
  bring
• 6:01
  peace
• 6:02
  from
• 6:02
  being
• 6:03
  prepared.
• 6:04
  So
• 6:04
  now
• 6:04
  you
• 6:04
  might
• 6:04
  be
• 6:05
  saying,
• 6:05
  Ralph,
• 6:05
  I
• 6:05
  love
• 6:06
  the
• 6:06
  idea,
• 6:06
  that
• 6:07
  sounds
• 6:07
  like
• 6:07
  a
• 6:07
  fantastic
• 6:08
  issue.
• 6:08
  But,
• 6:09
  but
• 6:09
  how
• 6:09
  can
• 6:09
  we
• 6:09
  do
• 6:10
  it?
• 6:11
  You
• 6:11
  might
• 6:11
  be
• 6:11
  asking
• 6:11
  this
• 6:12
  question,
• 6:12
  how
• 6:12
  do,
• 6:12
  how
• 6:12
  do
• 6:13
  I
• 6:13
  transform
• 6:13
  this
• 6:14
  dread
• 6:14
  of
• 6:14
  tax
• 6:14
  season?
• 6:15
  And
• 6:15
  trust
• 6:15
  me,
• 6:16
  listen,
• 6:16
  haven't
• 6:16
  done
• 6:17
  taxes
• 6:17
  for
• 6:17
  30
• 6:18
  years
• 6:18
  now.
• 6:18
  People
• 6:18
  dread
• 6:19
  tax
• 6:19
  season.
• 6:20
  But
• 6:20
  you're
• 6:21
  asking
• 6:21
  this
• 6:21
  very
• 6:22
  important
• 6:22
  question,
• 6:23
  how
• 6:23
  to
• 6:23
  transform
• 6:24
  the
• 6:24
  dread
• 6:24
  of
• 6:24
  tax
• 6:25
  season
• 6:25
  into
• 6:25
  calm,
• 6:26
  organized
• 6:27
  process.
• 6:27
  Well,
• 6:28
  I've
• 6:28
  got
• 6:28
  a
• 6:28
  single
• 6:29
  solution
• 6:29
  for
• 6:29
  you
• 6:30
  today
• 6:30
  and
• 6:30
  it's
• 6:31
  really
• 6:31
  pretty
• 6:31
  simple.
• 6:32
  It's
• 6:32
  just
• 6:33
  consistently
• 6:33
  set
• 6:34
  up
• 6:34
  a
• 6:34
  system
• 6:34
  now
• 6:35
  to
• 6:35
  organize
• 6:35
  all
• 6:36
  your
• 6:36
  financial
• 6:36
  documents
• 6:37
  and
• 6:37
  those
• 6:38
  receipts
• 6:38
  throughout
• 6:38
  the
• 6:39
  year.
• 6:39
  It's
• 6:40
  all
• 6:40
  about
• 6:40
  being
• 6:40
  proactive
• 6:41
  to
• 6:41
  prepare
• 6:41
  for
• 6:42
  a
• 6:42
  stress
• 6:42
  free
• 6:42
  tax
• 6:43
  season
• 6:43
  next
• 6:43
  year.
• 6:45
  And
• 6:45
  here's
• 6:45
  the
• 6:45
  benefit
• 6:46
  from
• 6:46
  it.
• 6:47
  You're
• 6:47
  going
• 6:47
  to
• 6:47
  be
• 6:47
  building
• 6:48
  a
• 6:48
  year
• 6:48
  round
• 6:48
  financial
• 6:49
  organization.
• 6:50
  So
• 6:50
  here's
• 6:50
  your
• 6:51
  one
• 6:51
  action
• 6:51
  step
• 6:51
  for
• 6:52
  today
• 6:52
  with
• 6:52
  the
• 6:52
  goal
• 6:52
  of
• 6:53
  getting
• 6:53
  organized
• 6:54
  for
• 6:54
  year
• 6:54
  end
• 6:54
  tax
• 6:55
  planning.
• 6:56
  This
• 6:56
  is
• 6:56
  what
• 6:56
  I
• 6:56
  tell
• 6:57
  all
• 6:57
  of
• 6:57
  my
• 6:57
  clients.
• 6:58
  First
• 6:58
  thing
• 6:58
  I
• 6:58
  want
• 6:58
  you
• 6:59
  to
• 6:59
  do
• 6:59
  is
• 6:59
  create
• 6:59
  a
• 6:59
  dedicated
• 7:00
  tax
• 7:00
  and
• 7:01
  financial
• 7:01
  documents
• 7:02
  spot.
• 7:03
  Now
• 7:03
  you
• 7:03
  notice
• 7:03
  I
• 7:04
  said
• 7:04
  spot
• 7:04
  because
• 7:04
  everybody's
• 7:05
  situation
• 7:05
  is
• 7:05
  different.
• 7:06
  But
• 7:06
  I
• 7:07
  really
• 7:07
  encourage
• 7:07
  you
• 7:08
  set
• 7:08
  up
• 7:08
  one
• 7:08
  central
• 7:09
  easily
• 7:09
  accessible
• 7:10
  place.
• 7:10
  Maybe
• 7:11
  that's
• 7:11
  a
• 7:11
  physical
• 7:12
  box
• 7:12
  or
• 7:12
  maybe
• 7:12
  it's
• 7:13
  a
• 7:13
  folder,
• 7:14
  maybe
• 7:14
  hey,
• 7:14
  you're
• 7:15
  a
• 7:15
  more
• 7:15

  You

  have
• 7:16
  a
• 7:16
  dedicated
• 7:17
  digital
• 7:17
  folder,
• 7:18
  maybe
• 7:18
  says
• 7:18
  something
• 7:19
  like
• 7:19
  taxes
• 7:19
  20,
• 7:20
  25
• 7:20
  on
• 7:21
  that.
• 7:21
  We
• 7:21
  actually
• 7:22
  encourage
• 7:22
  our
• 7:22
  clients
• 7:22
  to
• 7:23
  use
• 7:23
  either
• 7:23
  an
• 7:23
  envelope
• 7:24
  system.
• 7:24
  You
• 7:24
  know,
• 7:24
  I'll
• 7:24
  say
• 7:24
  to
• 7:24
  my
• 7:25
  clients,
• 7:25
  listen,
• 7:25
  just
• 7:26
  get
• 7:26

• 7:26
  of
• 7:26

  manila
• 7:27
  envelopes
• 7:28
  right
• 7:28
  on
• 7:28

  documents
• 7:31
  throughout
• 7:31
  the
• 7:31
  year
• 7:32
  into
• 7:32
  it.
• 7:32
  Now
• 7:32
  you
• 7:33
  also
• 7:33
  can
• 7:33
  use
• 7:33
  digital
• 7:33
  storage.
• 7:34
  I'm
• 7:34
  one
• 7:34
  that
• 7:35
  believes
• 7:35
  in
• 7:35
  it.

  in
• 7:37

• 7:38
  But
• 7:38
  I
• 7:38
  just
• 7:39
  want
• 7:39
  you
• 7:39
  to
• 7:39
  start
• 7:39
  by
• 7:40
  choosing
• 7:40
  one
• 7:41
  system
• 7:41
  that
• 7:41
  works
• 7:41
  for
• 7:42
  you
• 7:42
  and

  that
• 7:43
  your
• 7:43
  commitment
• 7:44
  for
• 7:44
  the

  year.
• 7:44
  So

  I'm
• 7:45
  going

  let's
• 7:46
  get
• 7:46
  this,
• 7:47
  let's
• 7:47
  get
• 7:48
  this
• 7:48
  party
• 7:48
  started.
• 7:49
  As
• 7:49
  they
• 7:49
  say,
• 7:49
  start
• 7:49
  the
• 7:50
  process.
• 7:51
  File
• 7:51
  one
• 7:51
  recent
• 7:52
  document.
• 7:52
  So
• 7:53
  immediately
• 7:53
  go
• 7:53
  look
• 7:54
  for
• 7:54
  one
• 7:54
  financial
• 7:55
  document.
• 7:55
  Maybe
• 7:55
  that's
• 7:56
  your
• 7:56
  bank
• 7:56
  statement,
• 7:57
  maybe
• 7:57
  that's
• 7:57
  a
• 7:57
  utility
• 7:58
  bill
• 7:58
  because
• 7:58
  you're
• 7:59
  writing
• 7:59
  off
• 7:59
  an
• 7:59
  office
• 8:00
  in
• 8:00
  home.
• 8:00
  Or
• 8:00
  maybe
• 8:01
  you
• 8:01
  had
• 8:01
  a
• 8:01
  major
• 8:02
  purchase
• 8:02
  and
• 8:02
  you
• 8:03
  want
• 8:03
  to
• 8:03
  see
• 8:03
  if
• 8:03
  that's
• 8:03
  deductible
• 8:04
  at
• 8:04
  tax
• 8:04
  time.
• 8:05
  But
• 8:05
  start
• 8:05
  to
• 8:06
  build
• 8:06
  momentum
• 8:07
  in
• 8:07
  that
• 8:07
  new
• 8:07
  system
• 8:08
  because
• 8:08
  that's
• 8:08
  going
• 8:09
  to
• 8:09
  start
• 8:09
  to
• 8:09
  build
• 8:09
  a
• 8:09
  habit.
• 8:10
  And,
• 8:10
  and
• 8:10
  it's
• 8:10
  going
• 8:11
  to
• 8:11
  make
• 8:11
  the
• 8:11
  system
• 8:11
  feel
• 8:12
  real
• 8:12
  because
• 8:12
  you're
• 8:12
  going
• 8:13
  to
• 8:13
  actually
• 8:13
  be
• 8:13
  doing
• 8:13
  it.
• 8:14
  So
• 8:14
  that's
• 8:14
  the
• 8:14
  second
• 8:15
  step.
• 8:15
  And
• 8:16
  then
• 8:16
  I
• 8:16
  just
• 8:16
  want
• 8:16
  you
• 8:16
  to
• 8:16
  identify
• 8:17
  one
• 8:17
  or
• 8:18
  two
• 8:18
  key
• 8:18
  categories
• 8:19
  to
• 8:19
  continue
• 8:20
  that
• 8:20
  momentum,
• 8:21
  to
• 8:21
  continue
• 8:21
  that
• 8:22
  process.
• 8:22
  You
• 8:22
  know,
• 8:22
  really
• 8:23
  think
• 8:23
  about
• 8:23
  the
• 8:23
  potential
• 8:24
  deductions
• 8:24
  that
• 8:25
  are
• 8:25
  relevant
• 8:25
  to
• 8:25
  you.
• 8:26
  Maybe
• 8:26
  you're
• 8:26
  somebody
• 8:27
  that
• 8:27
  does
• 8:27
  a
• 8:27
  lot
• 8:27
  of
• 8:27
  charitable
• 8:28
  giving
• 8:28
  throughout
• 8:28
  the
• 8:29
  year,
• 8:29
  so
• 8:29
  you
• 8:29
  want
• 8:29
  to
• 8:29
  make
• 8:30
  sure
• 8:30
  you're
• 8:30
  keeping
• 8:30
  those
• 8:31
  receipts.
• 8:32
  Maybe
• 8:32
  you're
• 8:32
  a
• 8:32
  small
• 8:33
  business
• 8:33
  person,
• 8:33
  you
• 8:33
  have
• 8:34
  this
• 8:34
  side
• 8:34
  hustle
• 8:35
  that
• 8:35
  we
• 8:35
  talk.
• 8:35
  We'll
• 8:35
  be
• 8:35
  talking
• 8:35
  about
• 8:35
  that
• 8:36
  in
• 8:36
  the
• 8:36
  next
• 8:36
  few
• 8:36
  days
• 8:36
  about
• 8:37
  how
• 8:37
  to
• 8:37
  make
• 8:37
  extra
• 8:38
  money
• 8:38
  with
• 8:38
  a
• 8:38
  side
• 8:38
  hustle.
• 8:39
  But
• 8:39
  this
• 8:39
  is
• 8:39
  a
• 8:40
  very
• 8:40
  important
• 8:40
  time
• 8:41
  to
• 8:41
  start
• 8:41
  setting
• 8:42
  aside
• 8:42
  those
• 8:42
  receipts
• 8:43
  so
• 8:43
  you're.
• 8:43
  You're
• 8:44
  not
• 8:44
  scrambling
• 8:44
  when
• 8:44
  it
• 8:45
  comes
• 8:45
  to
• 8:45
  time
• 8:45
  to
• 8:45
  figure
• 8:45
  out
• 8:46
  your
• 8:46
  taxes.
• 8:46
  Hey,
• 8:47
  maybe
• 8:47
  you're
• 8:47
  unfortunately
• 8:48
  in
• 8:48
  a
• 8:48
  position
• 8:49
  where
• 8:49
  you've
• 8:49
  got
• 8:49
  a
• 8:49
  lot
• 8:49
  of
• 8:50
  medical
• 8:50
  expenses.
• 8:51
  And
• 8:51
  these
• 8:51
  medical
• 8:51
  expenses
• 8:52
  seem
• 8:52
  to
• 8:52
  be
• 8:52
  going
• 8:53
  up
• 8:53
  and
• 8:53
  up
• 8:53
  and
• 8:53
  up.
• 8:54
  Well,
• 8:54
  this
• 8:54
  is
• 8:54
  a
• 8:54
  great
• 8:55
  time
• 8:55
  as
• 8:55
  you're
• 8:56
  going
• 8:56
  through
• 8:56
  those
• 8:56
  treatments
• 8:57
  or
• 8:57
  as
• 8:57
  you're
• 8:58
  spending
• 8:58
  that
• 8:58
  money
• 8:58
  on
• 8:59
  those
• 8:59
  medical
• 8:59
  expenses
• 9:00
  to
• 9:00
  start
• 9:00
  keeping
• 9:01
  track
• 9:01
  of
• 9:01
  those
• 9:02
  things
• 9:02
  instead
• 9:02
  of
• 9:03
  waiting
• 9:03
  till
• 9:03
  year
• 9:03
  end
• 9:03
  and
• 9:04
  trying
• 9:04
  to
• 9:04
  figure
• 9:04
  out,
• 9:04
  hey,
• 9:05
  what
• 9:05
  happened
• 9:05
  last
• 9:06
  March.
• 9:07
  And
• 9:07
  this
• 9:07
  is
• 9:07
  a
• 9:07
  commitment.
• 9:08
  It's
• 9:08
  a
• 9:08
  commitment
• 9:08
  to
• 9:09
  consistently
• 9:09
  collect
• 9:10
  receipts
• 9:10
  and
• 9:10

• 9:11
  for
• 9:11
  one
• 9:11
  of
• 9:12
  these
• 9:12
  categories
• 9:12
  moving
• 9:13
  forward.
• 9:13
  Just
• 9:13
  pick
• 9:13
  the
• 9:14
  one
• 9:14
  that's
• 9:14
  most
• 9:14
  impactful
• 9:15
  to
• 9:15
  you.
• 9:16
  And

• 9:30
  minutes,
• 9:31
  just

  once
• 9:31
  a

  month.
• 9:32
  Once
• 9:32
  a
• 9:32
  month

  And

  during

  time,

  make

  quickly

  file

  Think

  the

  things
• 9:42
  that

  the

  things
• 9:43
  that
• 9:43
  you're

  to
• 9:44
  need.
• 9:44
  Review
• 9:45
  your
• 9:45
  spending.
• 9:45
  Maybe
• 9:45
  you
• 9:46
  can
• 9:46
  think
• 9:46
  about
• 9:46
  some
• 9:47
  new
• 9:47
  tax
• 9:47
  deductible
• 9:48
  items
• 9:48
  that
• 9:48
  you
• 9:48
  hadn't
• 9:48
  thought
• 9:48
  about,
• 9:49
  hey,
• 9:49
  I
• 9:49
  just
• 9:49
  recorded
• 9:50
  a
• 9:50
  show
• 9:50
  about
• 9:51
  the
• 9:51
  big
• 9:51
  tax
• 9:51
  change
• 9:52
  from
• 9:52
  this
• 9:52
  big
• 9:53
  beautiful
• 9:53
  bill.
• 9:53
  And
• 9:53
  I'll
• 9:54
  put
• 9:54
  a
• 9:54
  link
• 9:54
  to
• 9:54
  that
• 9:54
  in
• 9:54
  the
• 9:54
  show
• 9:55
  notes.
• 9:55
  But
• 9:55
  I
• 9:55
  would
• 9:55
  encourage
• 9:55
  you
• 9:56
  to
• 9:56
  go
• 9:56
  listen
• 9:56
  to
• 9:57
  that
• 9:57
  because
• 9:57
  there
• 9:57
  are
• 9:58
  some
• 9:58
  tax
• 9:58
  planning
• 9:59
  opportunities
• 10:00
  based
• 10:00
  on
• 10:00
  that
• 10:01
  that
• 10:01
  you
• 10:01
  should
• 10:01
  start
• 10:02
  planning
• 10:02
  for
• 10:02
  now.
• 10:03
  So,
• 10:03
  so
• 10:03
  you're
• 10:03
  not
• 10:03
  scrambling
• 10:04
  a
• 10:04
  tax
• 10:04
  season.
• 10:05
  And
• 10:05
  trust
• 10:06
  me,
• 10:06
  this
• 10:06
  is
• 10:06
  really
• 10:06
  going
• 10:06
  to
• 10:07
  help
• 10:07
  you
• 10:07
  because
• 10:07
  it's
• 10:07
  going
• 10:07
  to
• 10:08
  fight
• 10:08
  that
• 10:08
  struggle,
• 10:09
  it's
• 10:09
  going
• 10:09
  to
• 10:09
  fight
• 10:09
  that
• 10:09
  stress
• 10:10
  of
• 10:10
  those
• 10:10
  chaotic
• 10:11
  tax
• 10:11
  season
• 10:12
  preparation
• 10:12
  times.
• 10:13
  And
• 10:13
  listen,
• 10:13
  people
• 10:14
  tell
• 10:14
  me
• 10:14
  coming
• 10:14
  to
• 10:14
  see
• 10:15
  me
• 10:15
  is
• 10:15
  like
• 10:15
  going
• 10:15
  to
• 10:15
  the
• 10:16
  dentist.
• 10:16
  They
• 10:16
  just
• 10:16
  dread
• 10:17
  it
• 10:17
  sometimes.
• 10:18
  I
• 10:18
  don't
• 10:18
  know
• 10:18
  how
• 10:18
  to
• 10:18
  take
• 10:18
  that.
• 10:19
  But
• 10:19
  hey,
• 10:19
  maybe
• 10:19
  if
• 10:20
  you're
• 10:20
  more
• 10:20
  organized,
• 10:21
  it
• 10:21
  doesn't
• 10:21
  feel
• 10:21
  that
• 10:22
  way.
• 10:22
  So
• 10:22
  it's
• 10:22
  going
• 10:22
  to
• 10:23
  help
• 10:23
  you
• 10:23
  create
• 10:23
  order.
• 10:24
  It's
• 10:24
  going
• 10:24
  to
• 10:24
  help
• 10:24
  bring
• 10:24
  clarity
• 10:25
  for
• 10:25
  your
• 10:25
  financial
• 10:26
  records.
• 10:27
  And
• 10:27
  more
• 10:28
  importantly
• 10:28
  than
• 10:28
  most
• 10:29
  things,
• 10:29
  I
• 10:29
  think
• 10:29
  it's
• 10:29
  really
• 10:29
  going
• 10:30
  to
• 10:30
  help
• 10:30
  you
• 10:30
  avoid
• 10:31
  missing
• 10:31
  some
• 10:31
  valuable
• 10:32
  deductions
• 10:32
  or
• 10:32
  opportunities.
• 10:33
  I
• 10:33
  don't
• 10:33
  know
• 10:33
  how
• 10:34
  many
• 10:34
  times
• 10:34
  clients
• 10:34
  have
• 10:34
  said
• 10:34
  to
• 10:35
  me,
• 10:35
  you
• 10:35
  know,
• 10:35
  Ralph,
• 10:35
  I
• 10:35
  wish
• 10:36
  I
• 10:36
  had
• 10:36
  really
• 10:36
  kept
• 10:36
  track
• 10:37
  of
• 10:37
  that.
• 10:37
  And
• 10:37
  I'll
• 10:38

  But

  peace,
• 10:43
  it's
• 10:44
  going

  to
• 10:44
  empower
• 10:44
  confidence,
• 10:45
  and
• 10:45
  hey,

  it's

  How

  about

  today?
• 10:50
  Father
• 10:50
  God,
• 10:50
  we
• 10:51
  just
• 10:51
  thank
• 10:51
  you
• 10:51
  for
• 10:51
  the
• 10:51
  resources
• 10:52
  that
• 10:52
  you
• 10:52
  provide
• 10:53
  for
• 10:53
  us
• 10:53
  and
• 10:54
  our
• 10:54
  calling
• 10:54
  to
• 10:55
  be
• 10:55
  accountable.
• 10:56
  And
• 10:56
  Lord,
• 10:56
  we
• 10:56
  have
• 10:57
  to
• 10:57
  confess
• 10:57
  that
• 10:57
  tax
• 10:58
  season
• 10:58
  often
• 10:58
  brings
• 10:59
  stress.
• 10:59
  And
• 11:00
  most
• 11:00
  of
• 11:00
  the
• 11:00
  time,
• 11:00
  Lord,
• 11:00
  it's
• 11:01
  stress
• 11:01
  due
• 11:01
  to
• 11:01
  our
• 11:02
  own
• 11:02
  disorganization
• 11:03
  and
• 11:03
  many
• 11:03
  times
• 11:04
  it's
• 11:04
  due
• 11:04
  to
• 11:04
  our
• 11:05
  fear.
• 11:06
  So
• 11:06
  we
• 11:06
  ask
• 11:06
  that
• 11:06
  you
• 11:06
  would

  in

  order.
