8 Rules of a Simple Life: Don't Consume But Produce!

[Anonymous]

1. Clothes

I used to spend money on clothes the most. I was like "Winter is coming and I have nothing to wear. I need a coat, jeans, and boots!". But what happened to my old ones? Nothing. They are just there, but I used to feel like I need to buy something from new fashion.

Then I realized that buying new clothes is waste of money. I don't buy if I don't need aymore.

If you are always shopping, it must be hard for you to leave that habit. Just start your work by not going to shopping centers anymore.

2. Shoes

I just buy what I need again. A pair of boots for winter, slippers and sneakers for summer and other seasons. I buy a new pair of sneakers almost every year but I use my boots for years.

3. Make up

I don't like seeing my face different than its real look. So, I don't do make up.

4. Hair dresser

I always watched hair dressers when I go there. I tried to learn how they cut or dye hair. And after watching for long enough, I started to apply it on my own hair. I cut my own hair at home. And it looks so professional.

By the way, I don't dye my hair. It is all natural.

5. Eating out

When I meet with my friends at a coffee shop, I don't order anything. Because I don't like coffee. I think, I don't have to drink something just because everybody does.

When it comes to eating, I eat at home most of the time.

6. Public transportations

If I have my own car, I will have to spend money for gas, taxes and lots of other things. That's why I prefer public transportations.

7. Credit cards

When I buy things with a credit card, I don't feel like spending money. It feels like I buy it for free. So It makes me buy things without thinking. That's why I prefer paying with cash anymore.

I buy only If I have money!

8. Solitaire ring

Paying that much money for just that little thing which is not even useful... I don't really need it! And I don't understand why people think like it is a have to to buy it if you want to propose.
