If you make $20/hour, you take home about $15 after taxes.
So that night out isn't $300, it's 20 hours of your time, or 3 days of work.
That new car isn't $60,000, it's 4,000 hours of your time, or 570 days of work.
Stop thinking in dollar terms. Think in time.
Time is your most valuable asset, use it wisely.
