#Contentment

The shortest path from a frustrated life to a full one is not getting more. It is noticing what is already there.

The rich man's anxiety is the same as the poor man's. Both forget the wealth already in their hands.

On the people who own little and lack nothing.

The fastest way to make a good life feel small is to measure it against someone else's.

The unexpected weight that comes with having a lot to protect.

A simple test separates what your life actually requires from what your mind has merely been trained to crave.

Most of what you chase will not matter in a week. Learning to tell a passing craving from a lasting value saves a life from being spent on the wrong things.

The fastest way to feel rich is not to acquire more, but to want less. Reducing desire is the shortcut to having enough.

The ancient diagnosis the modern world keeps trying to forget: unchecked wanting is the root of most of our pain.
