To be happy

[Irina Wolf]

To be honest, I've only ever purchased the LPC to become happy. Now I pursue my dreams, I'm being creative, conquering fears, busting limiting beliefs, growing etc etc...

 

But in the back of my head that desire for more keeps scratching. That feeling of not having enough. What if I decided to be content with what I do have and be happy now? Would that be okay?

Would that be enough?

Would I be wasting my potential as a creative artist? 

Is this the rat race?

That would be the best decision you ever make, why would it not be okay?..

Being content doesn't necessarily mean that you'll stop working, unless the only reason you've been working was to 'be content'.

you want to have both sides and you can, to be fulfilled with what you have now and also working for something better, not because you NEED something better but because why not enjoyingly play 'the game'.

Your ego mind won't believe this, it always wants more and more, and it is always afraid that death is around the corner. But realize that these anxious thoughts are not really You, let them go. Being in the moment and just observing your thoughts with no judgment will get you there  its way easier said than done, but yah. A great book that talks about this is The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle.

Indeed thanks very much for your comment and recommendation. I've know Eckhart Tolle and his works for a few years now. I now realize I often ask questions on this forum because I'm in a state of fear and think I need help or confirmation.

Your words are a much appreciated point of view ??
