Concrete Tips on Frugal Living [Hidden Dragon BizBlog 1.2]

I am becoming much more budet conscious these days, and looking for ways to simplify and streamline my life in order to achieve the goals I have set for myself. To that end,  I look for good advice on how to save money, time, and effort. I found some, and want to share it with you.

Leo from Zen Habits wrote a guest post at Consumerism Commentary that I missed somehow. He ranked it as one of his best posts for the month of April (Leo churned out some writing last month!), and I can see why. Check out Gradual Frugality:

I didn’t cut out all the things on my list all at once. That would have been quite a drastic change, and I’m not a fan of drastic changes. My philosophy is that changes should be made gradually, with baby steps, over a long period of time, otherwise they won’t be sustainable. Want to lose weight? Don’t try to drop 30 pounds in a month—lose a pound or two each week, and over the course of a year you’ll lose 50-100 pounds!

Check it out, there are some really good tips! (thanks, Leo!)
