Create a Budget That Actually Sticks

I keep making budgets and abandoning them within 2 weeks.

Monthly take-home: [£AMOUNT]
Biggest spending problem: [e.g. eating out / subscriptions / impulse buys]
What I've tried before: [budgeting app / spreadsheet / nothing]
My financial goal: [save / pay debt / just stop overspending]

Create me a budget I'll actually stick to:
1. **Why my previous attempts failed** — the real reason, based on what I've shared
2. **My personalised budget** — exact category breakdowns for my income
3. **The psychological trick** that makes this one stick when others don't
4. **The 3 rules** I must follow in the first month
5. **What to do when I slip** — a recovery plan so one bad week doesn't end it
6. **Monthly review checklist** to keep on track
