Getting excess of anything can move you out of your goodwill track. Beware of it as it would increase the lust for more and more

Being contented can achieve and have only if you stop desiring more things you don't have.

Because contented means being happy enough for what you have right now.  So, in other words,  we just need to be happy and choose to be happy so we may find the contentment for what we have.  Wink

Imagine yourself in a harder situation: not being able to afford anything and barely eating three times a day. Try comparing your state with those poorer.
Imagining what could be is okay but get a hold, bro.

man is never satisfied. man is created with lust, human desires want everything, satisfaction, wealth, treasure, throne and woman.
if we can control our lusts, we will not be greedy for all.

example

I do not have sandals and I work to get sandals, I see other people on motorcycles, so I work harder to get a motor, after I get the motor I want a car, and so on

in essence we will never be satisfied with the Throne and riches

just think about them who are craving to get what you have and that you are not caring that you have.

I think we cannot be content with what we have but what we can do is not to be jealous of others for what they have because we dont have them. To do that, one has to train him or herself well and consientize the brain on what you want and not crave for what others have. It also entails working hard to get all that you want.

As I observed myself it looks like I never stop on planning to buy new things that I dont have yet.



Being simply contented for what we have is actually quite hard for humans like us because it is our nature to always aim for more. I think the better thing that we can do for us to be contented is just to appreciate and be thankful for what we have. Avoid being jealous or envy in the achievements of others.

I don't think that there's contentment in this world because whenever you get something you want there's always a thing that you wanted more. So maybe you can lessen that by appreciating on what you have

Take a moment to be grateful for something, find the little things that can give you simple joys, find the things about yourself that you're happy with,do the same with others in your life, assume that you, others, and life are perfect. Be grateful for what you have always

Contentment is the state or degree of being contented or satisfied.   
It is also
happiness in one's situation; satisfaction
the neurophysiological experience of satisfaction and being at ease in one's situation, body, and/or mind.
So to be contented, you will have what u all nerd this will make u satisfied and feel relieved of any burden to satisfy at the moment. But in this world today, if u are contented you won't move forward because lack of contention do leads to hard work and trying more. But with anything you have, just be grateful unto ó God and always praise his name because there are some that are strong enough Ving to have what you have gotten.

I was watching a video last night where a guy was asked about his dreams, something to that effect, and I just found them so simple. They didn't involved anything like being a sport star,  having lots of money. Just having a comfortable place to live. And the reason why I think that's the case is because he's over 60 years old or so.

It's impossible to make it real, because you are a human and it's our nature to want more all the time. We are an animals in general.

It's important we write down the things really needs than just want to buy only for showing other people that you also can buy same too.As a human being we are never satisfied even we are already have something we have.

your attitude is a natural thing because most people definitely do not stop having desires, there is always a desire more let alone that have not in possession.

Find the root cause and go deep within. What feeling does buying new things give you? why do you seek that feeling?

I don't think that it's possible to do because the human's nature is to desire for something more

Be happy on what you have. Avoid comparing yourself to other people who are capable of acquiring things that they do not need. Always think that you are blessed more than anybody because you still have those things. There are lot of people who cannot even afford to buy food and has no place to live in.
