The List Of Wants
The list of wants for the average person can extend to infinity if left unchecked. It is impossible to satisfy people completely. Look in the mirror doesn’t a little of this exist in you? I know it does in me. Once you acquire something you have pursued, you immediately start the process of conquest all over again.
It is important to have goals with forward momentum, and that is what makes you provide value to the world around you. Finding the appropriate things to desire and achieve are the key to whether you will be happy or not. Anyone who exploits the weaknesses of others is going to pay a price for their greed.
How then do you achieve your castle and your fortune? You start inside yourself with the basics, which are written inside of every one of us. You must learn to listen to your instincts, they will always lead you the right direction if you examine your motives. The key is to always have the right motives.
Like it or not helping others is the easiest and best way to help your self. By exploring what you can do to make life better for someone else, your own answers will become very apparent. It is one basic law of the universe, and is a fundamental in the whole karma thing. No matter your beliefs what goes around comes around.
Personally I find great reward in doing something for the benefit of others, and the returns are substantial. Dig in today, look outside your world, and be the change that you would like to see in others.
