So true

I received this in my email:

PEACE OF MIND
If you were to ask your neighbor, 'What would give you peace of mind?' he might tell you, 'A vacation in Bermuda!' or 'An extra hundred grand would give me peace!', or 'A new Ferrari would make me content!'

But going places – and getting stuff – is usually a temporary solution ... Peace of mind rarely comes from getting more stuff. Getting more stuff usually leads to wanting even more stuff! Peace of mind starts with being grateful for what we have right now.

GRATITUDE is POWER
When we are thankful for what we have - for the friends we have, and for the things we've got, we attract more good people and good things! People who always complain about what they DON'T HAVE, stay stuck. Complainers attract more things to complain about!

It is a law of life. It's hard to explain, but you can observe it around you. We get more of what we dwell upon. That's why all the spiritual masters have taught the same lesson ..

'Start by being thankful. Be happy with what you have now, and more will come your way.'

It's practical advice. Every time you say a silent 'thank you' you become more peaceful – and more power.

For me, this is so true. Human can never be satisfied. If you now earn RM5k a month, you want to earn RM10k a month. But when u do earn RM10k a month, u want to have RM20k a month! And on and on.

It happened to me as well. When I started work, I thought a salary of 50% more would make me very happy and easy. But now, I earn like 300% more, still it's not exactly as what I thought last time. So learn to be content.

But unfortunately, the trend nowadays is complain-complain-complain and complain summore. Sometimes, up to the point of whining. It's almost like the 'IN' thing to do nowadays. Malaysian now complain about almost anything.

So please, let's try to be content with what we have and you'll discover life is much more wonderful then.

Money will never be enough!
