Increase Income, Reduce expenses

For the last 6 months or the last 2 quarters of the year I have been able to increase my income and reduce my expenses. I took advantage of overtime offered at my J.O.B. and sold some unused items I had laying around. It wasn't a dramatic increase in income but it was something. My expenses were also lower relative to my income but still not were I want them to be. I'll write more on what I'm doing to increase my income.
