Begin to notice your thought process and attitudes as you shop. What are you thinking? Why are you buying the things you’re buying?" ---This was well put. I couldn't agree less. I believe that if you know the reasons as to why you're really making a purchase for something, you will really be more careful about spending. I also thing that your financial situation is quite a clear reflection of how you know and deal with yourself.
