This morning I was reading through my emails and the following thought occurred to me to write about: Have you done / got enough?
I write about growth a lot. What I mean by that is personal growth.
The advancement of your knowledge, tolerance (got some great feedback from that, thank you), health, business acumen, and relationships to name several areas.
Note I did not include money in that list. That is because whilst I could always do with more money I am very grateful for what I have and work to maximise it.
For example. I could theoretically go and buy almost any car I want. However the finance would be simple, the payments a worry.
So I drive an Echo. Although I feel like the delivery boy sometimes the car is just cool enough and very useful for the City. Park it anywhere, turn on a dime.
But here’s my point. Driving this car means I get to go racing. The Echo might not be as “cool” or “flash” as a newer car but the related costs means that money can be used elsewhere. The Echo is enough.
And seriously I thought people cared about that kind of thing (I still do sometimes), what I drive, they don’t. They’ve got way more on their minds about the service we offer than what I park in the carpark. Although, there is an opposing viewpoint on this I don’t have the space to cover today. You can guess I’m sure.
This week check out minimalism. This site is a good start. I believe you need to check in with yourself from time to time and see if you’ve got / done enough. In most cases you will have and you need to focus on what you have to get the most out of it.
Have a great week.
