If you have read my previous article entitled, “Why It’s So Difficult to Find Honest Credit Help“, then perhaps you have a better understanding as to why it’s so common (and easy) to make mistakes when one embarks upon the credit repair journey.

One of the main principles I established when creating this blog was that I wanted to expose my mistakes in the sincere hope that others will avoid making the same mistakes.

Use the following links to read about my mistakes and how you can avoid them. Although I have decided to create a separate section for “My Mistakes”, I also consider the following to be “Basics” as well. As such, and in addition to, thoroughly reading about my mistakes before you begin your credit repair journey will save you a lot of frustration, time, and money in the future.
