Get Support & Change Habits

So besides being on the same page with your wife and doing budget meetings weekly, what can help you feel supported?
Money isn't anything different than other habits that you need to develop.
Until I read 2 books I didn't know how to change a habit and have the courage to do it.
Atomic Habits
Extreme Ownership

Several of the tools you will likely need on your money journey are:
Prioritize and execute 1 thing at a time
Accountability partners
Habit tracking
Environmental design
Schedule what is important
Make it easy
Join a community of support
Education
I like how James Clear really made it seem to me that if you aren't winning essentially acerate up the tool list until you can change your identity and habits.
What are you you going to try to get more support so you can take ownership of your your money / finances and your life?
And if you haven't yet, time to and get on the same team and same page.
