Part 4/10:
Rule 5: The Spontaneous Combust Rule
Imagine if all your belongings could spontaneously combust. What would you truly miss? If your instinct is relief rather than heartbreak, it’s time to reassess that item’s place in your life.
Rule 6: The 30-Day Rule
To combat impulse buying, implement a 30-day waiting period before purchasing anything non-essential. This helps curb immediate desires and encourages more thoughtful spending.
Rule 7: Wish List and Wait
Instead of buying an item right away, create a wish list. Return to it after a month to see what you genuinely still want. Often, you’ll find that much of what was on your list doesn’t hold the same appeal.
