Self-Improvement Steps and Your Finances 3

research can go a long way in the end.


59. Ditch the impulsive (and compulsive) buying- buy only what you need, not what you want. Impulse and compulsive buying can lead to buyer's remorse (especially when the credit card bill arrives) which can negatively impact your self-esteem and self worth. We all love a good shopping trip; but during these tough economical times, it's important to rise above the urge to shop and prove that you can do it.


60. Do the research- better deals on insurance, electricity rates and phone plans do exist! You just need to do the research and see if you can bag a better bargain. Because of the intense competition in our economy, many companies are constantly lowering the prices on their services that you need.

We can't eat perfect balanced and healthy all the time, which is why vitamins were created. 6. Hide (or throw away) the scale- a scale is the only ingredient you need for a recipe for disaster when it comes to self-improvement. Hide it. Throw it away and don't think about it. You have more important things to worry about than your weight. If you feel great on the inside, then it will show on the outside, regardless of what that darned scale says. 7.

Look for adult activities such as soccer teams, book clubs, rowing clubs or bird watching groups. Keep your passions alive by re-connecting with the hobbies and activities that you once loved. - Look down- take a hike to the top of a cliff that overlooks the city, or jump on an elevator and ride the lift to the top floor and look down.
