It seems that people who do write about it are intentionally complex some days :( I'm trying to learn that as well for when I get to that baby step, and it still seems pretty complex and confusing.

Just as a background, we're on Step 2 of Dave Ramsey's plan with about 2 years to go before we're on Step 3, so we are focused exclusively on dumping debt. Now, my weaknesses: 1) "vision casting" - it's hard sometimes to keep my wife onboard and keep us focused on the longterm; listening to Dave Ramsey's radio program and following your blog helps a lot 2) sometimes I'm too tight - I've been called the "budget nazi" more than once 3) we eat out too much 4) we don't do a meal plan so we buy "whatever" when we go grocery shopping; our freezer is full of old stuff we need to eat but never do 5) sometimes I get frustrated (internally) - our debt snowball is starting to pick up a little steam, but I want it to go faster; the beginning of the month is always exciting because we get to pay bills (I'm a nerd!), but the rest of the month is "slow" while we wait for our next paychecks. 6) I live in the Disneyland of America - as Dave Ramsey says, sometimes it's hard to "Live like no one else so someday we can live like no one else." My strengths are boring, let’s talk about what I’m weak at. Just as a background, we’re on Step 2 of Dave Ramsey’s plan with about 2 years to go before we’re on Step 3, so we are focused exclusively on dumping debt. Now, my weaknesses:

1) “vision casting” - it’s hard sometimes to keep my wife onboard and keep us focused on the longterm; listening to Dave Ramsey’s radio program and following your blog helps a lot
2) sometimes I’m too tight - I’ve been called the “budget nazi” more than once
3) we eat out too much
4) we don’t do a meal plan so we buy “whatever” when we go grocery shopping; our freezer is full of old stuff we need to eat but never do
5) sometimes I get frustrated (internally) - our debt snowball is starting to pick up a little steam, but I want it to go faster; the beginning of the month is always exciting because we get to pay bills (I’m a nerd!), but the rest of the month is “slow” while we wait for our next paychecks.
6) I live in the Disneyland of America - as Dave Ramsey says, sometimes it’s hard to “Live like no one else so someday we can live like no one else.”
