A few years ago, my wife and I decided to remodel our home. From this experience we learned two important lessons that also pertain to financial planning: the first is that you have to start. No matter how daunting a project may seem, you eventually have to pick a point to dive in. After a long staring match with the old kitchen it finally hit me that the reason I was so intimidated by the project was that I was looking at it as one giant project that seemed unmanageable. I actually had a series of several smaller projects that were well within my abilities. All we had to do was pick a small project and dive in.
The second lesson we learned was that sometimes you simply have to consult a professional. We doubt an electrician would have cost ½ as much as we ended up spending on a new television and VCR (among other things) that we destroyed by incorrectly wiring a portion of the house. A specialist in a field has in-depth knowledge, tools, and experience that cannot be duplicated or overcome by dabbling. He or she also knows about precautionary measures such as unplugging appliances before starting an electrical project. Consulting a professional is a lot less expensive than the price of humility!
