Congratulations! You made it through your spending freeze challenge. Of course, I am patting you on the back early as two weeks have not passed yet.
Here are a few points that you may have realized after the freeze:
You have jump-started your savings. Did you realize how much money you spent on unnecessary stuff? Now it is in your bank account, shoring up your emergency fund.
You have built up your “anti impulse spending” muscles. Now you can really look at an item and decide if it is a need or a want. Once that money is spent, there is no getting it back. Keep these new muscles in good shape.
Hopefully, you have gotten your budget back on track. You have been able to live without a daily premium coffee or that extra lunch out. When you are not spending money on “stuff”, you tend to focus more on what is truly important.

Take this new knowledge of how and why you spend forward to a successful life of saving.
