Have a successful NO BUY Year with these tips

all right so it's February I know the energy of the new year new me new goals new vision whatever it is it started to dwindle down a little bit but let's stay up let's let's come on stay with me stay with me hey everybody welcome back to my channel it's Wanda these are my five tips that I have used in order for me to have a successful no by year if you are still on the Noby train because I know a lot of yall were watching Noby videos at the end of December early January if y still on that train let's keep it going and let's find ways in order for us to have a successful year and for us not to die down throughout the year cuz we have a goal and the goal is to save money the goal is to generate income the goal is to make sure we're able to live our best life and stop overspending on things we don't need all right so my first tip is to tell no one now this is already a theme of mine y' already know I don't like telling people what I'm going to do I just do it and then come back to y'all and let y'all know what I did and that's the same thing when it comes for my no bye in 2024 I told absolutely no one I was going to do a no by year and honestly I didn't even start in January I think I started probably in February to be honest so I told nobody and I just went ahead and picked my top picks my top topics and just went about about doing it and just make sure I calculate what I wanted to buy and what I didn't wanted to buy what I envisioned my 20124 was going to look like I know there are some tips where some people tell you to tell you know everybody or tell let the people around you know so they could keep you accountable or maybe do a video so you can be accountable for it if that's you and that works please do that but here's another alternative to where don't tell any body you know why because a lot of people don't like that pressure on them when it comes to being accountable for certain things and I feel like if you don't tell anyone you could slowly go into it and if you mess up it's not a big of a deal to where if you mess up you have so many people watching you you don't have to do that so just don't tell anyone and just slowly gradually go into it I see Life as that you gradually get into habits you gradually get into whatever you want to get into and you don't really have to plunge in deep right away not everybody likes to plunge in deep you do not have to go full on Hardcore right away because a lot of people they lose Steam and you know we're humans we do lose steam so if you gradually go into it then you could get comfortable and then you realize you don't really need certain things and then you might even add things on your list so yeah don't tell anyone keep it a secret take inventory of what you have it's very important we do have the tendency as people to forget what we have this is why a lot of the things that I have they're on display even though they're behind like a cupboard or um drawers whatever they're still on display to where there's they're not stacked up against each other or up under each other the way I take inventory is not as though I have pen and paper and I write exactly how many of each item that I have you can do that if you want to because some people are very visual so they need to see that for me being that I do not accumulate a lot of stuff I don't like clutter I know exactly where each category of things are for example I know where all my makeup are I know where all my bags are I know where all my shoes are so it I don't really need to have inventory because I could go to that direct designated spot open the cup up and see everything right on display which really really helps me a lot some people they do rather have okay I have three foundations I have this and this and this written out on paper if you want to do that like I said make an Excel sheet and do that no bigging in these next coming days or weeks take the time to go ahead and go through every section of your home to make sure you have enough or a certain amount in your possession and just to let you know how many you have because you if you have 10 white shirts you do not need to go buy another shirt to make it 11 just wear those until one of them breaks rips can't be worn whatever the case is then you go ahead and buy another one but if you're in the store and you already know you have 10 shirts that will make you less likely to buy that 11 shirt instead of not knowing exactly how many shirts you have at the house but you're thinking oh yeah it wouldn't hurt for me to add another one no it will hurt because you do not need that 11th shirt you have 10 already so if mentally you already know you have 10 or maybe you write this out on a word dog somewhere where you can always have it at hand then it's going to help you when you go shopping you already know not to get another one of whatever it is because you already have so many at the house next tip is to make a list of wants versus needs this is going to be very hard for a lot of people because a lot of times our wants always seem to intertwine with our needs but it's clearly a difference a need is something that you completely ran out of you don't have that is a need something that is broken and you only had one of that is a need a one would most likely be anything you already have multiples of and you just want to add another one for example I have enough foundations I do not need to buy another one but guess what if I see a foundation a New Foundation come out or not even new if it's a foundation that I've always wanted to try and I've never picked it up but yet I'm in a store way they have it there in my Shade that's going to be a want that's not going to be a need because I already have five six foundations that I have not opened yet at the house so differentiate differentiate oh I feel like I'm saying that wrong differentiate which item is a want versus a need only replace it finished or broken and I've kind of already said this before for but girl you do not need another lip gloss if that lip gloss is not finished guess what like I said in another video if it's a popular you know hype product it's not going to go away it's still going to be there because it's their cash C they're not going to get discontinue an item that they are going to make money off of years after year so you can wait just wait until that lip gloss in your purse or those 10 lip glosses that that you have in your purse just make sure those are completely done first before you go buy another one and I chose lip gloss as the example because that's exactly what I do I honestly only have one lip gloss and I have it right here to be honest just in case I need your reply uh reply it reapply it girl only have one and I and I got this in PR to be honest and I'm not going to buy another lip gloss until this one is done now I do have lip balm which if I'm not in a mood to put lip gloss on then and I just need to condition my lips then yes I will use a lip balm but I only have one open at a time of each category I need to go through them entirely before I go and purchase another one because one thing I don't want is to have multiple lip products that are the same thing open at the same time it just doesn't make any sense to me so I realized when I keep it to a small collection to where I have one open then I'm more likely to finish through that one than to go buy another one for me to replace the empty one so if it's broken then yes you replace it if it's finished yes you replace it and my last tip is to shop only for that specific occasion when it comes up not if when it comes up and I feel like we do this a lot where we are shopping for our fany self fany fantasy self a lot and we just go buy a dress or a shirt or whatever it is for if when I have an occasion this will be perfect for it that is not what we're going to do in 2025 we are going to only purchase the item when that occasion occurs because a lot of the time that item that we purchase for that special occasion the occasion never actually comes up and even if that occasion comes up guess what we actually go out and shop for another item we do not go back in our closet to pull out the item we once held for reserve for that occasion we just go buy a new one because our tastes change every every single time seasonally okaya like our taste Chang and because we have so many different options now when it comes to items we're not going to go and get our old items so what I do now is I just purchased for that occasion if I'm going to go to a beach club or if I'm going on vacation and I need a new swimsuit I'm going wait until those occasion come up for me to go purchase that swimsuit I'm not going to hoard a whole swimsuits and just have them in my drawer and then just wait until that occasion come up cuz maybe I'm not even going to like those swimsuits anymore by the time that I need to wear them you understand so it's best to just shop for that occasion when it comes up instead of if when you dig all right guys so those were the top tips that I use in order for me to have a successful no bu Year let me know which tips you are going to incorporate in your year
