Like there is something wrong in the universe because I haven't done something that I'm used to doing. So that is what I want you to start to implement and put into practice is a routine of when you can do certain things. Now, the other part of that is creating new habits. Okay? So it takes time to change your behavior and that is what is going to change your finances for the long term, okay?
