Imagine that you have decided to save money for something you have been dreaming about for the past few years.

But you just can't seem to save up.

What should you do then? Forget about the dream? Or save up for it using the right approach?

There are actually several ways to help you get closer to your dream. But it is important that you make saving money a habit.

After all, it is habits that become part of our lives. But habits must be good to achieve what we want.

Below we will describe a plan that will help you make the ability to procrastinate a habit in just two months.

State your goal clearly.

Find a positive helper for yourself. This helper can be some kind of gift that you need to give yourself at least a couple of times a month.

A trigger is needed. For example, your dream is a luxury SUV. Then watch its test drive on the Internet more often. The trigger will help you start acting.

Start putting aside even small amounts. Of course, it is very difficult to tighten your belts right away, so you should start with small amounts. At the first stage, even 5% of your monthly income will be enough. The amount should gradually increase.

The whole process needs to be controlled. Therefore, mark the completed actions in the diary. For example, write down each month how much is left to save for your dream.

Don't get off track, even if you feel like it. There will probably be difficulties that will make you give up on your dream.

But you can't give up, because you'll never achieve anything that way. Only persistent people achieve all their goals.
