Know Yourself, Know Your Money

This approach feels different from typical finance books that just give tips. I'm curious what motivated this emphasis on understanding oneself first.

The prompts made me confront some uncomfortable truths about my spending habits. Did others experience the same breakthrough or struggle with honesty in these exercises?

The book suggests that understanding your deeper motivations can change how you handle money. I'm wondering if anyone has seen this in their own lives or with others.
