ITL140: How to be Content and Ambitious at the Same Time




In the Loop with Andy Andrews show

Summary: On this week’s episode, I address the question of how to balance contentment and the things you want in life. There are several things I want to do and want to have. Before anything “goes up on our refrigerator,” so to speak, I see if it fits my criteria… Does this line up with my mission in life? Would it make my mission more vibrant and successful? Can this thing be a tool to help people? We are very joyful whether we get to do something or not. There is an understanding that we don’t need certain things to feel fulfilled. I am very aware of blessings beyond need. We have a house, but I have proven in my life that I only need a pier to sleep under. We have blessings beyond what we need cultivate a grateful spirit. Gratefulness will make you into a content person. In my quiet time, I will examine the things beyond what I need and determine if I should pursue them. Gratefulness is right in the middle of this question. You’ve got to have a grateful spirit and understand that if your needs are met, everything else is gravy.
