Hint: Since I didn't have the discipline to do this on my own, I finally set up an automatic withdrawal of a small amount from one account to another that can be accessed at any time and even earns a small amount of interest. It was free to do and so much easier than I even imagined (it took me less than 10 minutes). Ask your bank for details.
