Being content with your life and what you have

Being content has brought me alot of peace. I don't look to buy more things to decorate the bedroom or house. All the shopping catalogs go straight in the trash. I know the minute I open them they create a desire or want. Maybe that is how life is. We look around and we see other people having more stuff and believe it creates happiness. But I know in my heart, it does not by what I have already. I question myself that from now on my heart is now focused on family and my business. All the money I make is going into my business.

This is not just a temporary situation but a lifestyle choice in making better decisions for my money and making the dollar stretch around the block. I am going through my closet and trying to reinvent items for a different purpose. I wanted a rolling bookcase to house all my business books and resource materials so I used my shoe rack for that.

My armoire which was not being properly used is now my new bookcase for all my reading materials. I took the doors off to remind me to go back to my research materials for writing materials.

I put a notebook next my bed to capture ideas when I am reading Inc. magazine or other magazines.

I read somewhere to "organize the small to prepare to the big". I am welcoming good energy and things into my life.
