Iťs Simple: Buy Now, Pay Less
Wheíher yoiťre doing the laundry or
shopping for life insurance, the ability
to “focus” at critical points is vital. In
doing the wash, for instance, there are
definite steps to corapleting the process:
Sorting the clothes, washing, drying
and then puttíng them away. Each step
takés just a little bit
of concentration
and in a matter of
hours, iťs doně.
And, what a differ-
ence it makes!
Of course, one
could easily find
lots of ways to drag
out the process:
Letting the pil es of
dirty clothes just sit
and grow for sever-
al days befor-e- toss-
ing them into the
washer; and then,
waiting another
day or two — or
maybe three — before hanging them
on the line or putting them in the dryer.
But why? Why would anyone také a
task as simple as doing the wash and
turn it into a long and uncomfortable
process?
Thaťs simple. We wouldnT.
Common sense would telí us to get
moving and get the job doně.
Iťs easy to apply this “do it now”
philosophy to buying life insurance
coverage from SPJST. Obviously, the
best time to get additional coverage is
when you are in good health — and
before your next birthday. Like the old
saying goes, “There’s no time like the
present.”

Focus on the Future...
The most important aspect of how to
begin deals with whereyou expect to end.
So point yourself toward a dramatic des-
tination. Wrap your efforts around a fine

ment when you cross the finish line.
