Sense of satisfaction...

Our ultimate aim in seeking more wealth is a sense of satisfaction, of happiness. But the very basis of seeking more is a feeling of not having enough, a feeling of discontentment. That feeling of discontentment, of wanting more and more and more, doesn’t arise from the inherent desirability of the objects we are seeking but rather from our own mental state.

— Dalia Lama 

Okay, got it. So we’re supposed to focus on gratitude for what we already have first and foremost. The other sage advice from experts is to be of service to others (volunteer work, donations etc.), which helps create a sense of purpose and fulfilment. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
