  • Organize digital and paper financial documents

  • Shred outdated statements (Next Jolt Member Shred)

Refresh Your Budget

  • Review the last 60–90 days of spending 

  • Set one realistic spending goal for next month

  • Use this free budget worksheet from GreenPath

Create a Clear Debt Strategy

  • List all balances, interest rates, and minimum payments 
  • Choose a payoff strategy (highest interest first or smallest balance first)
  • Set up automatic minimum payments to avoid late fees 
  • Explore options such as a Debt Management Program

Review Your Credit Reports

Strengthen Your Emergency Fund

  • Confirm how much you currently have saved 
  • Set a short-term target ($500–$1,000) 
  • Set a long-term target (3–6 months of essentials) 
  • Automate a small recurring transfer - even $25 helps

Align Money With What Matters

  • Write down one financial priority for the next 6–12 months
