"Don\u2019t set your mind on things you don\u2019t possess as if they were yours, but count the blessings you actually possess and think how much you would desire them if they weren\u2019t already yours."\n\n\u2014 Marcus Aurelius\n\nWhen we think about things that we want in our lives, we also need to think about the thing that we already have, and appreciate those things. It\u2019s easy for us to get stuck in the mindset of only focusing on the things that we don\u2019t have in our lives. We focus on what we are lacking as a person and where we consider ourselves as failures. We can get too focused on all the material things that we don\u2019t have and want.
