Be Content With Less

Living frugally is a mindset, although sometimes you have no choice. Money doesn't go as far as it use to a few years ago.  Think about past generations, how frugal did they have to be? Did our great-grandparents have all the fancy 'conveniences' we have? So, how frugal can you be? Do you really need all the latest electronic gadgets?

I say "NO!" It is time to start being content with less. I found an article at Frugally Sustainable that gives some ideas on how to change your mindset: 10 Ways to Live in Contentment and Have Enough .

I think an easy place to start is by being content with what you have. Then you can go from there, before the world economy forces us all to do so!

  1. Just found your blog - liking it so far, but just found it so need to keep nosing around here:) On living frugally: living simply is the same thing. Last year, I cleaned to the corners! My motto was If I have to dust it, I don't want it. It's amazing the 'stuff' we acquire - even in the pantry. Donate it before it goes bad. So much easier when you know just what you have and don't have all the clutter.
    Great Post,
