The moment I realized my budget was backwards

Was tracking expenses for like 6 months. Then I looked back and saw I spent $240 on coffee shops alone in one month. That's when it clicked - I was tracking what I spent, not planning what I needed. Had zero control. Always went over. How did you guys switch from tracking to actually planning?

Damn, I used to think budgeting was just watching the numbers but this totally changed my mind lol.

Yeah same here @victor_butler50, I used to just kinda look at the totals and hope for the best lol. But once I started actually tracking where the money goes it really changed how I see stuff.
