There’s always more, and when we focus on getting more too much, it can be like the proverbial carrot that we never reach. Satisfaction isn’t found in seeking more; it’s found by genuinely appreciating all that’s already in our lives today, this minute…every minute.

I know this can be challenging when it looks like we really need more–more money, love, health–but the beautiful thing is that as we really focus on appreciating what we have, more starts to show up. (As long as we aren’t doing it in order to get more.)

During those times in my life when it really looked like I needed more, when on any given day I had only some change in my pocket with no promise of more and was essentially homeless, carless, and jobless, focusing on being grateful for all that I had was a fulltime job; it was work. I dedicated myself to this. It was the only way that I didn’t slip into a dark abyss of sheer terror.

I actually found that even though it looked pretty bad, I could find a sense of real peace. And slowly, at first, everything began to align with the truth that I saw within…that we are never without anything we need.

The only real need we ever have is to feel a true sense of inner peace.
