@Brad It’s amazing how much personal finance is more about the ‘personal’ than the finance. Often attitude and action changes make the biggest difference. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Great post and summary! This could possibly fit into another category listed, but perhaps one other one Christians often fall prey to is the lack of realizing we are stewards of what God has given us.

When we realize that this money isn’t ours anyways and that we will be held accountable for the way we used it that helps get our “minds right” in terms of setting up and sticking to a budget.

Man this is a great summary of budget failure. I can honestly say that until my mindset changed I suffered from all of the above. That is pretty bad but that was why we found ourselves in the mess we were in. It's easier to be stubborn than it is to teach yourself new things. I will tweet this one for sure, thanks for sharing and I will definitely add this book to my must read list! .-= Brad @ EOD´s last blog ..Meal Planning Saves Time And Money =-.
