17515 - Your needs swell to meet your income

17515 - Your needs swell to meet your income

Days left on earth: 17516

Earning £38 per week as a football apprentice was the wealthiest I ever felt.


Living at home with no bills, with everything taken care of by my lovely mum and dad, all I had to do was play football and afford the odd night out.


Driving a beat-up Ford Fiesta that you could start with a house key, with no heating, so I had to wear ski gloves in winter - I felt like a million dollars.


Then a few years later, I earned a million dollars and felt trapped and overwhelmed by living expenses.


I know this is ridiculous. But it's so many people's stories. The numbers will differ, but the sensation of feeling trapped by a desire for more is universal.


But there is a skilful way out that takes a ton of courage.


You stop to “actually” smell the roses.


This does not mean you stop trying to be successful or earn money. I enjoy both.


But you stop trying to find happiness in what you don’t have.


And start feeling grateful for what you do have right now.


A hug with a loved one

The cup of tea made with love.

Cuddles with a pet.

Laughs with friends.


These moments create happiness but are too often missed trying to earn more money to be happy!


So today, focus on one thing that brings you joy in your life.


Here’s mine - A cup of coffee while I write these words.
