If you are speaking about your personal budget, then it's a finance plan which helps you in allocating funds towards your expenses, savings and debt repayment. While making a personal financial plan, you'll have to consider your past spending and personal debt.

budgeting in a personal financing sense, can mean estimating monthly living expenses based on previous bills and wages. Some bills can be estimated and subtracted from the original income figure. The remaining balance after fixed expenses now becomes your household budget.

we can say that it is a financial disipline.

Budgeting refers to a list of all planned expenses and revenues. It is a plan for saving and spending. A budget is an important concept for future plans.

its a money plan. With it, you can organize and control your financial resources and decide in advance how your money will work for you.
budgeting is a tool that shows you how your funds are allocated, how they are working for you.
