The definition of Insanity is to do the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result.
How many times have you sat down at your kitchen table with a yellow legal pad of paper and swore to yourself that THIS TIME, you were going to set up a budget and handle your money differently?? Come on...be honest with yourself! I would imagine that it happened near the time when you got your income tax refund or when you received a nice bonus from work. You got all of your bills "caught up", felt some relief and promised to do it differently this time - remember??
Your new budget worked great for about 3 days. You watched every single penny and then "life happened" and something happened that you did not account for within the perfectly measured columns of your budget. AND, you gave up! You tore the yellow page out of the pad and threw it in the trash because "budgets never work"! Remember?
The process of creating and living with a "plan" usually takes 90 days to work through all of the kinks. It NEVER works right the first time but in order to "win" with money, you have got to put a plan together AND stick with it! Plan for adjustments and KNOW that it won't be perfect the first time through.
