<human>:  I want help creating a budget plan. What steps should I take?
<bot>: 
1. Identify your income sources and set a realistic budget based on your earnings.
2. Calculate your current expenses and determine areas you can reduce your spending.
3. Track your spending over the course of a month or two to gain an understanding of how much money you are spending in each area.
4. Set financial goals and develop a plan to prioritize your goals.
5. Create a budget that lists income and expenses and stay within the budget.
6. Reevaluate your budget periodically. Make sure your financial goals are still being met, and tweak the budget as necessary.
