How do you balance striving for more and contentment?

I used to say/think “All I need is 1 property and I will be set.”

Once I reached that goal, the drive for the next one felt just as strong.

Reminder to enjoy the journey and that it’s not about the destination.

Every goal you reach, you will enjoy it for a short time, then be on to the next one.

How do you balance striving to do better and for more while understanding that it will never be enough?

    Good thoughts as we embark on this New Year.....our time is precious and should be valued way more than most people do.

    One of my favorite sayings - "Money is a replacable commodity, time is not"
