Treat Your Life Like a Business
Every business has a budget that shows the total monthly income and expenses. Just like a business, your budget should have your monthly income and the total you spent in that month. If you have more expenses than your income, then you need to review your spending and assign levels of necessity and importance to your expenses.
In order for a business to keep growing and expanding, it should make a profit, and that is why the finance people will try to minimize expenditure and boost income. If the income is greater than the expenses, then you have a surplus. This surplus can be allocated to other activities which could bring in even more money.
