Episode 3787:

Quotes to ponder:

"Buying more doesn’t usually solve the problem of being more satisfied, organized, or content, but instead leads to more overwhelm of your possessions, more ungratefulness of what you actually have, more debt, and less time to spend on the things that you value most."

"I need to live my own life, be content with what I have, and stop desiring what others have."

"Everyone lives their own lives, so wanting what others have in hopes that it’ll make my life easier and prettier will likely not satisfy a deeper desire once those items are bought."
