That's great, but I'd still like to be able to afford a big vacation, please.
This is basically stoicism. Appreciate what you have. Try imagining you’ve lost it, it’s called negative visualization.
I get the sentiment of this post and just being satisfied and content with that you have, but I also feel like this is just “ money can’t buy happiness” wrapped in a new Wrapper. I know the OP post of it most likely did not mean it as that, but itt to feels like the bourgeois would this to keep us “poors” for wanting a small percentage of what they have. I like the idea for sure just see how it could weaponized against the 99%.
Which brings us to the second hot tip of the day: When you stop treating everything as 'us vs them', you also gain some happiness.
If more people thought like that instead of not being satisfied unless they get two offshore vacations a year things would be much better for everyone
I mean yeah, that's what I do. I cherish my little joys and super cherish the big bonus ones. Still miserable, but I cherish them lol.
I just reached down to pet my kitty and he groomed my glasses so I’m on board with this.
My old cat would groom my eyebrows, I feel it. My current cat tries to groom my hair, then bites my head when it won't cooperate.
