If you're full-time employed, your very first step is finding a way to make your lifestyle fit your (presumably above-minimum wage) salary.

That means making a budget, step 1.

I don't have a lifestyle, I work and come home, that's about it. Don't go out to eat or drink, nothing.

When "lifestyle" is used in a personal finance context, it's not referring to your social life.

It refers to what it costs to maintain your life: your rent/mortgage, your car payments, what insurance you have, what you spend on bills, groceries/households, daily costs like parking or gas, dependents like kids, etc. etc. etc.
