As you said...

It’s not just space that becomes an uncomfortable vacuum. You mentioned time itself - I would like to add money to the applications.

More often than not, when I worked as a financial adviser - the people with a budget were more in control of their money, and the people without a budget were wildly out of control.

However, it’s very interesting to note even those who had a budget didn’t adhere to it with any amount of orthodoxy. You could say the budget failed - in fact, this is why most people don’t make a budget beyond their first. It made them feel like an undisciplined failure.

In truth, it’s not the budget that is key, but the simple act of applying meaning to your money - “this belongs to rent,” “this belongs to electric,” etc. - prior to spending one thin dime which makes all the difference.

Very enlightening post ^.^ I’m committing your URL to memory and prepping myself to return soon (bookmarks and RSS and newsletters just don’t work for me these days…)
