I never thought it would happen, but I am adopting new Mustachian habits.
I thought I would just read other people's posts endlessly, while leaving my procrastination habit in the driver's seat and drifting along, half thrifty half spendy. Imagine my surprise when I found myself writing a new Note on my phone, listing all the stops I would go to the next time I deign to drive my car. Trip planning to reduce driving had become a habit and I hadn't even noticed it!
Other accomplishments:
CAR - Paid off now. Last car payment ever, DONE! Also, bought reflectors to reduce the heat of the sun and protect the interior since it's just sitting in the driveway most of the time now.
MEALS - At grocery store, shopping for price (I used to buy anything I wanted, especially organic); buying non-organic if it's fruit/vegie with thick non-edible skin; eating more oats; looking for grocery sale items; started eating beans and rice sometimes. Also, much more careful now to only buy the amount I will eat, and not let half-eaten portions rot.
MISC - Looking more carefully for free options for entertainment; returning library books on time; even got a couple of home repairs done without calling a pro.
There are more improvements needed, but the bristles of the 'stache have begun. Thanks to everyone for posting all of their inspiring examples. Dap and applause accepted - I can use all the momentum I can get!
