“To be upset over what you don’t have is to waste what you do have.”  -Ken S. Keyes, Jr.

If you focus on what’s lacking in life, you’ll find you never have enough.

There is always more to obtain: more knowledge, more experience, more money, more power, more responsibility, more friends, more connections, more adventures…the list goes on and on.

On the other side of that coin is the simple abundance you have with you always. The way you affect people when you smile. The way you inspire people when you share your passions. How alive and purposeful you feel when you indulge them without worrying about what you’re producing.

There’s nothing wrong with striving to improve and expand your world. Just remember to find a sense of balance and peace by keeping your eye on what you already have. It endures and strengthens while “more” comes and goes.
