Discounting Your Services
Never underestimate yourself and think that you can be taken for granted and not paid for what you actually deserve. Learn to take a stand and say no when you get peanuts in your appraisal. There are ways to actually put forward your effort and hard work. Do not let anybody else walk over your hard work. Remember that you are worth full price.

Sales Gimmicks
Do not get fooled by these sales, as you are not at any loss if you do not buy the things that are in sale. Studies have revealed that people often end up buying things that they think might be important for later time and never use it. Eye-catching discount offers often block our mind. Remember, "No man will go under loss to sell their stuff to a great extent". There is always a hidden profit behind everything that is sold in the name of a sale.

Hanging On To Clothes You Do Not Love
We all have those set of clothes that we never use or ever feel like discarding. This is because we think that we will use it at some point. But, it never happens and we end up adding more and more unwanted junk into our cupboards. Instead, give them away to any orphanage or an old-age home where it can be at least used.

Do Not Clutter Your Environment
Having clutter around you does affect your productivity, thereby leading to a lot of mood swings. So, clear away the clutter and mess around you from the places that you spend your maximum time like your bedroom or your work station.

Notifications On Your Phone

Avoid these unwanted game requests or getting notifications for likes that can highly disturb your productivity. This way you spend more quality time in your work as well as with your family members.
