Summary

In this episode, I shared why chasing “more” often leaves us feeling empty, no matter how much we achieve. The finish line keeps moving when we base our happiness on the next goal. Real fulfillment doesn’t come from accumulation—it comes from clarity, gratitude, and alignment with our values. By redefining what “enough” means and shifting from scarcity to abundance, we begin to experience peace in the present, not just hope for it in the future. You already have everything you need—the key is removing what’s getting in the way. To join my next free Friday Training sessions, email me at [email protected]

thinking about, then I'd finally be blank and start thinking about for the sake of what.

1:12.2

And when you find yourself thinking that if I just could have more of this, more of that,

universe.

1:35.1

You see, when we can replace the finally I'll be blank into for the sake of, we will always be content, joyful, fulfilled, and at ease.
