4. Write Down Your Priorities
You can also write it down and store it in a document online. This can seem like a waste of time (you know what you want), but in the thick of getting your project done, there are many shiny objects that can stand between you and a successful remodel. Having your priorities written down will allow you to stand back in the heat of the moment and evaluate if a new option will get you closer to your goals or farther away.
In my experience about 60% to 70% of the choices that get made on the spur of the moment cost more than sticking to the original choice. Sometimes it’s because something needs to be redone or upgraded (like reinforcing a tile floor) that wasn’t taken into account during the design phase. And sometimes it’s just because a friend suggests that something seen on TV would look so good in your remodel. Whatever the case, if you have a list to refer to, it’s easier to evaluate if those changes will get you closer to your goals.
