just like dieting — unless you’re working towards an extreme goal, you don’t need to be obsessively tracking your income and expenses. if you’ve never budgeted before, i still recommend tracking everything for a month to get a better understanding of where your money is going and what improvements you can make. but for most people, you shouldn’t feel pressured to track everything, every day to be “financially responsible” — that’s busy work that we don’t have time for. for the most part, all my investments and savings are automated & i pay myself last — meaning, they’re automatically deducted from my paycheck so i know what’s left over is truly for me to play with. #intuitivespending #intuitivebudgeting #budgeting
