SECRETS TO BECOMING CONTENTED 1

Hello beautiful people. Life is a progressive project. In this life, there are two foundational, fundamental human desires that everyone wishes to posses. They want the key to happiness covers all of life's sweetness and a perfect overall life experience.

The bulk of our discussion will be focused on how or the means through which we want to achieve these fundamental desires. It will cover what we want to do and what we want to exercise as priority and something that will lead to a long lasting happiness and perfection. If we look at it differently, what do we think can bring us this happiness: is it food, cars, houses, marriage, wealth, fame, power, family, certificates, multiple relationships, or pleasures of all kinds that we need.

True happiness cannot come from physical things, no matter the amount of earthy possessions we aquire, the truth is while our needs can be satisfied, we are never contented with our desires, as we grow, our desires increases. The more we get, the more we desire to get.

This is where we need to understand the secrets of contentment.

Since we have understood that our desires cannot be fulfilled even if we have all the money in the world, and there is no amount of physical things that we acquire, our desires will continue to have a hunger do more. We will wish to pursue more, and as we get it, we desire for more and as we achieve it, we desire more.

Should we continue this way? No.

There is a need for contentment.

Without contentment, we will be restless in life, we will live in continuous worry, depression, anger, pain and chaos.

We must learn to be satisfied with what we are a D what we have while we hope for the best and that will give us peace because we will be contented with all that God has given us and all that we have gotten so far in life. The irony of life is no matter how long you like and what you have, you will leave it all one day. Have this mindset and when

I will tell you a short story to help illuminate the concept of contentment.

There was a businessman who was wealthy, he was in a boat enjoying himself. He saw another fisherman playing with his child beside a boat.

"Why aren't you fishing?" The wealthy man asked.

"Because I caught enough fish for today." The other fisher man replied.

"Why don't you catch more?"

"What will I do with more?"

"You will earn more more,buy a bigger boat and catch more fish and then you could do more, get more nets, more boats and expand your business. Eventually you will have a fleet of boats and ships and your business will make a lot of money, you will be very rich and your life will be very easy." Said the businessman.

"Then what will I do after that?"

The wealthy business was puzzled and he wondered what else to say.

"Well, you will then enjoy your life with your family and have time to rest and travel the world."

"What do you think I am doing now?" The fisherman asked the wealthy man.

This story shows two different kinds of people, the rich man who thinks that all of life is in making more money and working very hard that no one can become happy and enjoy life until they have achieved more in life.

The second man who is a fisherman thinks that enjoyment of life and joy doesn't depend on the money or material things you have acquired, but it depends on the ability to see value and appreciate the little you have.

Everything you have is now should make you happy, you will get more but for now be contented.
