You have to pay yourself first or you will fail. If you don't hold out money for the things you need you will not be able to save. 2. In order to mind #1 you need an accurate budget of your expense. After you figure out what you need to spend, you should then evaluate it harshly to see where you can cut back. 3. Out of sight, out of mind is great. As you all know I hope, money in your savings account accrues interest so even if you can only save sometimes, you'll continue to make money on your savings every month! Great blog.
