It can be very difficult to avoid buying things when we live in a society packed with all sorts of businesses trying to draw in customers. The average person comes across hundreds of advertisements every day, and online shopping has made it easier than ever to spend large amounts of money without awareness. To change our shopping habits, we have to use a lot of willpower. The first big step in breaking any addiction is to understand that we have lost control of our own behavior.

当我们生活在一个充满著各种试图吸引顾客的商家的社会中,很难避免购买东西。一般人每天都会偶然看到数百则广告,而线上购物使人们比以往更容易在不知不觉中花掉大量的金钱。要改变我们的购物习惯,我们必须使用很大的意志力。戒掉任何成瘾的第一步就是要明白我们已经控制不住自己的行为。
