Here's a few ideas to help get you started. First you should order a free credit report. Your credit report will give you a list of everyone you've borrowed from and how much you currently owe them. With this info you can start to create a plan of action that will eventually lead to you having a good credit report. Ok now that you know exactly who you owe and how much you owe them. You can contact them to set up a monthly payment plan. Or you can ask if they'll be willing to accept a one time settlement payment, which is normally a lot less then the balance that's being reported. If neither of these seem like they'll work for you, you could start saving a percentage of your income every month. Then at the end of every year take that savings and go pay something off. Until every delinquent account on your report is paid off.
Of course the choice is yours. You are the only one that truly knows which plan will work best for you. Just don't allow bad credit to linger in your life any longer without at least trying to repair it.
