You're winning when you're happy for no reason. When you don't attach your happiness to anything or anyone, you become free.

you need to understand that it might not be, but always strive for more...life is the development, and stopping on the spot is degradation, even if it's a stop at a high level

Demand less and buy less. Use what resources you have and control your spendings. Do not buy anything that you may not need. Be wise about money. Think about each expenses before you buy something.

Man will never be satisfied with what he has. This is human nature, and it helps to develop humanity as a whole. Discontent with his position moves the person forward.

It could be one of those things where you buy so much useless crap that eventually you see how easily you get bored of it and see how useless they are in the grand scheme of things.

On this age, people especially teeenages always want to have what the world offers. New bags, they want it. New phones, they want it. New clothes, they want it. If they know what is really important then they'll learn how to be contented.

Being contented on what you have is also being happy in what you have. Sometimes, people wanted to buy things they wanted to have. In life, there are people who buy unnecessary things which only serves as treat to theirselves. They are doing it occassionally and treating yourself occasionally is acceptable but when people do not have control, they buy all things they feel they want but the truth is those things are really not necessary.

So the best strategy on being contented on what you have is you should be a wise-thinker. Yes, having a thought of not buying what you want although you really want to have it is helpful. Think of the reasons why you cannot buy things now. For example, you are saving your money because you wanted to open a business. When you know you already have enough savings, treat yourself once every 2 months or a month but make sure that there will be a remaining savings so that you will not get zero balance.

Depending on the money that we own  to buy new stuffs that we want. Without money our plans will be useless. For that reason we should measure the money we have with the needs of the stuffs we want. And always grateful for what we have, would make the desire for new stuffs is decreases.

As I observed myself it looks like I never stop on planning to buy new things that I dont have yet.
Being contented on what you have is being happy on what you receive in life, not expecting more than what you have.

Gratitude greatly affects you. That you did not have now - whether it be health, a loved one or a career, a hobby, hobbies or a car, clothes and a house, beautiful beliefs or talents, make the most of it and be grateful. We take it all for granted, and many people would be killed for what we have

focus on what you have. Love and learn those small things and you will appreciate the importance of those things and avoid comparing to others.

If you can look the "glass" half empty and you think positive ,you can be contended of small things that you have. The happiness is in the little things,as a blue sky and walk in a green park in peace with yourself.
You can have a lot of money and success and are not contended on what you have.

Satisfaction with life does not depend on how many things you can afford to buy. Look at the millionaires who have everything. They do not feel satisfaction and therefore go into politics or are engaged in extreme sports.


In my experience, contentment is only temporary. Humans are known for always wanting more. A perfect example of this is our never ending to-do-lists in life. After completing each task in the list, we then create another one to accomplish another thing that that we want. This cycle is usually called 'living' and it's basically the essence of human beings because we can never be contented. Although, some say contentment is a choice, albeit temporary. This can be usually achieved with the usual luxuries from the well-off part of society. It also depends on the person's outlook and state in life. If you live in an impoverished state, having a good-paying job and a sturdy home can temporarily make you satisfied with your life until you get used to it and begin to want more. Goodluck on looking for pure contentment! Hope this helped.



Couldn't agree more on this. You can force yourself to be content with what you have. If you accomplished something, you will want more and more of it after some time. And that goes on forever.

Thats the problem, you keep in planning to buy new things that does not important (it is not what you need). Buying new things that you dont have and after a months theres new model again but its like what you bought before.just be contented on what youve been bought before. Dont expect more on what you have thats make you happy.

ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL.

If you know how to thank God and everyone else for the blessings that are coming to you, you can be contented.
That's enough, so that you will not be looking for more, specially on the things that you don't have.

Also, appreciate things that you already have, work hard on things that you need, not only wants.
Because the more you want to acquire things or something else, you can't be contented on yourself.

Sometimes being not contented is a good thing. Me wanting more money or wanting new clothes, gadgets etc would give me that extra push to exert more effort to achieve these wants.

In order to be content with what you already have, you need to become aware of what you already have. Most of us are so focused on the future that we rarely stop to appreciate what’s right in front of our eyes. Instead, be willing to open your mind to the good things that are already happening in your life.

It is normal for a person not to be contented on what they have. It means you have a big dreams and that motivates you to work really hard just to get what u want. But it should be according to the law of God and law of people, as long as you don't bothered many people.
