Normally I spend a lot of time emphasizing the importance of cultivating habits that reduce your desire to spend.<\/p>\n<p>But I have one habit that makes me want to spend more money. It&#8217;s a practice &#8212; something I do almost daily &#8212; that convinces me that my current lifestyle isn&#8217;t good enough. Its reading.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, reading makes me want to spend more.<\/p>\n<p>I avoid watching TV not only to steer clear of commercials but also to keep away from images and expectations &#8212; of the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Real_Housewives\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Real Housewives<\/em><\/a>, of the <em>Kardashians<\/em>, of the <em>Bachelorette<\/em> &#8212; that make me think that those luxurious digs are normal, baseline standards.<\/p>\n<p>But I&#8217;m a sucker for reading magazines. I read everything I can get my hands on. I love em.<\/p>\n<p>The more magazines I read, the more dissatisfied I am with my life.<\/p>\n<p>Decorating magazines make me realize my life is devoid of granite countertops. Fashion magazines make me reflect on my sub-par wardrobe. Travel magazines make me want to buy an airline ticket immediately. Even practical magazines for working moms (I told you I read everything!) make me realize I&#8217;m not hosting good enough dinner parties.<\/p>\n<p>Whats strange is that <a href=\"https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/id12985-i-just-made-the-biggest-impulse-purchase-of-my-life-but-its-ok.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my buying impulses<\/a> change based on what magazine is in my hands at that precise second. If Im lounging around on a Saturday reading a huge stack of magazines, I can feel my wants shift as I switch from title to title.<\/p>\n<p>One second I&#8217;m thinking about how my wineglasses aren&#8217;t very elegant. The next second I&#8217;m wondering if we can build an arbor in the backyard.<\/p>\n<p>The solution? Either give up magazines entirely (haha! not likely!) or focus on titles that reinforce what I want to want. Thats awkward phrasing &#8212; what I want to want &#8212; but I&#8217;m not editing it out because it succinctly states my point. Our reading material creates a self-fulfilling prophecy. Read more about the type of life you hope to build, and soon you&#8217;ll build it.<\/p>\n<p>So I read magazines about money, entrepreneurship and motivation &#8212; not because those are the first titles to grab my attention (my attention goes straight to celebrity gossip), but because it illustrates the types of titles which I <em>hope<\/em> will grab my attention down the road.<\/p>\n<p>What if I cant resist a great fashion or <a href=\"https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/id26348-pictures-of-our-23922-bathroom-remodel-and-some-lessons-learned.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">home remodeling<\/a> magazine? I pick the one thats aimed at a budget-savvy readership, not the one that caters to luxury brand advertisers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><span style=\"font-size: smaller;\">Photo Credit: Karen Horton<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a confession.
