I agree with that automating your savings will help you save more. There are banks who offers auto debit arrangement on a weekly or monthly basis or whichever is comfortable to you, they will automate and put your funds in a certain services they offer like mutual funds, investment funds even in stock market. But sometimes it is hard to save specially when your budget is just enough to cover up your daily needs, and if that is the case you need to find other source of income to be able to save money for the future.
