You want to spend every single dollar of the money that you're bringing in on purpose.
Now, when I say spend the money, I mean that's everything from rent, groceries, if you have car payments, if you have debt.
And then if there's margin, you also need to assign that money a task, whether it's paying off the smallest debt or maybe you're behind on something.

Oh, I've definitely heard of it.
