Impulse Shopping will equal Buyer's Regret (for me)

 Shop your house!  I'm sure you have what you need if you can change your perspective.

 If you really can't find what you want for whatever space you are looking to change, think of this:

  • Look at your checking account and your bills
  • Look at your credit card statements


 Do you want another bill for that item you are looking for?    Is it really a need or simply a want?

 Please remember:  Things don't make you happy.  Family, Friends, Experiences

 Your showing self-control will help you feel proud of yourself.  If you still feel like you really need that thing/product.  Put money aside for next month and pay cash.

 Look around at what is working for that room or that outfit and what isn't.

 Maybe you simply need to purge what isn't working.  Think about it before you purchase it. Don't regret the purchase when the bill comes in.
Gratitude

I then proceeded to call my mom and give her a good laugh at what I did.  Part 1: P rep work is key As you can see in the picture, it has some slight issues, water stains, and peeling poly. My grandfather reminded me that  prep work is key.  Make sure you do a good work in the beginning and the rest will work out better. I first started out with trying to str...
