How to Start Your Own “Lock-In”
Ready to try it for yourself? Here’s a simple 3-step version you can start this week:
1. Set your time frame.
Choose a realistic period — 10, 30, or even 60 days. Write it down and announce it (to friends or online) to keep yourself accountable.
2. Lock your spending categories.
Pick what you’ll cut — dining out, clothes, random Amazon buys, subscriptions. Keep essentials like rent, groceries, and bills untouched.
3. Track and celebrate progress.
Use a notebook, spreadsheet, or app. Each week, note what you saved. Post about it if you want — your journey might inspire someone else to start.
By the end, you’ll have more than savings — you’ll have self-awareness. And that’s the real win.
