In my financial free formula, I pay a lot of attention on debt control. Debt is one of the important elements that we should pay attention on when going to financial freedom. So today, I’m going to share with you some debt fighting tips that I hope will inspire you how to start control over your debts.

Debt fighting tips number 1 : Stop Incurring new debt.

You will never get out of debt by borrowing more money. I saw a lot of people, most of the time; they always get a new debt to cover their old one. But this doesn’t help us to go anywhere.

The first step to control your debt is, you guessed it, to cut up your credit cards.

Credit cards, most of the time, are the easiest way we get money from and go into debts. This is why the first step is cut up the credit cards.

You don’t have to cancel you accounts. In fact, cancel your account doesn’t guaranteed you know how to control your debts. However if you hold your account, you probably be better for your credit rating in the long run. What you should do is just stop charging those accounts.

Ok, action time. Go ahead and do it. You won’t lose anything and you won’t feel any pain. The good news is you can always order a new card if you want to. It just a plastic card, after all.
