  1. Travel by public transport. Cabs may be comfortable but buses give you an idea about the bustle of daily life.\u00a0<\/li>
  2. If you need a vehicle, Get yourself a bicycle rather than a bike.<\/li>
  3. Quit drinking.<\/a><\/li>
  4. Quit smoking.<\/li>
  5. Quit drugs.<\/li>
  6. Cook your own meals or book a meal service rather than eating at restaurants or ordering food.<\/li>
  7. If you feel like treating yourself to a proper dinner, share the meal with friends. Eating alone generally is costlier than eating with a group of people.\u00a0<\/li>
  8. Hang out with like-minded people: someone who is on as tight a budget as you are.<\/li>
  9. Hire an accountability coach<\/a> who will keep track of your spending habits and help you stay on track.<\/li>
  10. Don\u2019t spend too much time window shopping lest you be tempted to actually purchase something.<\/li>
  11. Avoid buying expensive branded clothes. Rather, look for markets that let you buy something that is equally fashionable, only cheaper and more comfortable.<\/li>
  12. Keep only as much cash with you as you\u2019d be needing for your daily expenses\u200a\u2014\u200athat way you\u2019ll have no option even if you get a sudden urge to splurge. Not all shops have the option of online or card payment after all.<\/li>
  13. If you need to buy a newer version of something you already own (say, furniture), make arrangements to sell the older one to make up for at least a part of your budget.<\/li>
  14. Buying used stuff is a lot easier on the wallet.<\/li>
  15. Turn off all electronic gadgets when not in use to save on the electricity bill.<\/li>
  16. Instead of the mall, do your grocery shopping from a local market. Not only do you get all you need for less than half the price, but you also stock up on comparatively fresher and healthier stuff.<\/li>
  17. Most importantly, learn to distinguish between \u201cneed\u201d and \u201cwant\u201d. Basic amenities can\u2019t be lived without, luxuries sure can.<\/li>
  18. To get an even better idea, you can learn from the experts at Better Humans<\/a>. They write the most detailed tutorials on self improvement.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
