As the weekend approaches, here is a quote that will keep you focus.
“The gentleman makes things his servants. The petty man is servant to things.” – Xunzi
Since the beginning of humankind we’ve been controlled by the things we own.
From the clothes we somehow need to have, the jewelry covering our bodies to the car we spent so much for.
We mistakenly call these are prized possessions, disregarding our health, both mentally and physically, in the process.
This does not lead to happiness.
It only leads to the comparison trap that sucks the joy out of living.
The trick is to buy things because you want them, not that you need them. Don’t become a prisoner of material things, have a freedom mindset.
Life is good to have things, but it’s also good to just have life.
Have a great and blessed weekend and I’ll see you back here on Monday.
