125 - The Beauty of the Clean Slate

Jun 9

There are many obvious benefits to budgeting, but today we're going to talk about a not-so-obvious benefit. Sometimes we fail. Sometimes we make mistakes. Sometimes we do something we wish we could undo. One benefit of budgeting monthly is that somewhere between 1 and 30 days from now we'll get a clean slate. It's a beautiful part of this whole budgeting stuff, and one that can save us a lot of stress and heartbreak. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton shares some real-life examples of how this plays out in his family's life, as well as many of his clients'. If you've been on the fence about this whole budgeting business and think it will probably suck, maybe this is the episode that will push you to the other side. When we budget well, it makes our life better, it frees us of negative emotions such as guilt and regret, and it provides us the ability to quickly change as life changes around us.
