Here 3 tips you can do.
1. Differ necessary needs and passion needs
When we were a student at junior high school, we already learn some basics economy about need basic, they are primary need, secondary need, and tertiary need. Primary need is everything you need at present, for example food, cloth, and house. However, there is also stuff to classify as primary need, for example you have to buy tie to work at office, etc. Secondary need is completing need, for example motor cycle, computer, etc. It's lower level of primary need. Tertiary need is luxury need. Usually tertiary need is attached to rich people as prestigious status.
Well, let's back to our topic. You should differ which one your necessary need and which one your passion need. For example, you already have shoe, you have been wearing it for years. It looks old but still can be wore as well. In one day, you passed by a shoe store and you saw a cool shoe. You want to buy it, and that's what I called passion need. Would you but it? I suggest no! Why because you already have shoe and still wearable.
