The small debt habit that changed my rainy evening with an useful constraint
I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.
I started this because my commute felt a little stuck, and budgeting seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
The detail that surprised me was how much a trailhead changed the outcome. Same plan, diffrent setting, completely different energy
