I started with the $5 a day challenge and that bred the need to save more. Whenever I get a win, like skipping the coffee shop halfway into the workday etc, the 5 or 10 goes into a savings category. And I make peanuts, working for Home Depot.
This definitely changed my perspective of my mornings the second part you put “Move Money Before You Move Set up a tiny automatic transfer. Before coffee, before emails, before anything.”
Now that is powerful! I move before moving my money and I’m definitely going to start the habit of $5 each day before I buy a coffee I know I’ll see a difference. Great post thank you
Here’s the truth: $5 doesn’t change your life in a day. But it does change your identity. Each time you save, you’re proving to yourself: I keep promises to me.
And that identity shift is what unlocks bigger wins. Because once you trust yourself with $5, you start trusting yourself with $50, $500, $5,000.
The math is simple: $5 a day = $150 a month = $1,800 a year. But the real power isn’t the number — it’s the habit that compounds into confidence, control, and freedom.
So the answer is: small savings don’t just add up in dollars. They add up in who you become.
