I read once “if you don’t love what you have… you’ll never love what you have”
Meaning no matter what you get it will never be enough
Have you ever felt like no matter how much you do or have… you still want MORE
Like chasing the wind. The more you get the more you want.
WHAT IF
What if everything you have is already “enough” EVEN IF you still have more to accomplish.
For me… I see this as a mindset shift.
I call it being Ambitiously-content.
Ambition: a strong desire to do or to achieve something, typically requiring determination and hard work.
Content: in a state of peaceful happiness
The 2 can co-exist. In fact, they should.
There is nothing wrong with being ambitious. Everyone should go after the things they want. But now, what if while in process what you decide to be in a state of peace and happiness? Rather than dissatisfied and frustrated with your current situation?
Imagine the way you would go about day to day life… Feeling content (peaceful… and happy) while you still go after goals and ambitions. How would this change the way you go about your work, goals and relationships?
The “ugly” Way
Often people chase goals out of frustration of what they do not have or to prove others wrong. I call this “sourcing from the negative” the energy is negative… can you feel it?
The Challenge
Source from the positive. To become ambitiously-content
What if being CONTENT was the source of all positive growth in our life?
You’ll never know… till you try
With Love
