Life circumstances can make frugality a necessity rather than an option.

From clothing to natural resources like water and electricity to home decor, making frugal choices gives us daily opportunities to protect our environment rather than endlessly asking it to provide for us.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2) Frugal Living Helps Us Set Priorities<\/strong><br \/>\nLiz \u201cFrugalwoods,\u201d whose blog chronicles <a href=\"http:\/\/www.frugalwoods.com\/2017\/05\/17\/19-reasons-why-frugality-is-the-best-thing-thats-ever-happened-to-me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">her family\u2019s frugal lifestyle<\/a>, says her frugality helps her discern what is most worthy of her time, attention and money. \u201cThere\u2019s a whole lot that I don\u2019t do and don\u2019t spend money on simply because it doesn\u2019t rise to the level of priority in my life,\u201d she writes. \u201cI know that my time and money are both limited so why fritter either away on stuff that doesn\u2019t bring me happiness?&#8221; Frugal living can be a process of elimination of meaningless spending, as well as an investment in a satisfying, meaningful life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3)  Frugality Is the Opposite of Perfectionism<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/health-and-wellness\/healing\/3-ways-to-let-go-of-perfectionism\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Letting go of perfectionism<\/a> is a challenge for many of us. If we\u2019re prioritizing frugal living, though, we simply can\u2019t expect perfection, because \u201cperfect\u201d so often means \u201cnew.\u201d As Liz quips about her funky turquoise end table, claimed from an online swap group, \u201cI love it! It doesn\u2019t exactly match anything else, it\u2019s kind of an odd shape, and I\u2019m not sure why it\u2019s on wheels, but none of this bothers me in the least\u2026. Stuff is not a stand-in for human emotions, and it doesn\u2019t exist to make you happy. It exists to serve a function. As a recovering perfectionist, I find it liberating to accept\u2014at the outset\u2014that things aren\u2019t always going to work out quite right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How does frugal living help you cultivate a positive attitude?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWithout frugality none can be rich,\u201d wrote the 18th century poet Samuel Johnson, \u201cand with it very few would be poor.\u201d Of course, despite this inspiring message, not everyone who chooses to live frugally does so intentionally.
