Lately, I've started a list
of material things I want. This usually happens every couple of years. In
between, I may want something here and there, but for the most part, I don't
keep a list. Right now I have a pretty substantial list and it includes: a fitness
ball, a new laptop, voice recognition software, a Wii with Wii Fitness, a few
skirts, a digital camera, and some jewelry from an artist I met at the Kirkland farmer's market.
Do I need these things to be happy? No. Would having these things bring
pleasure and more ease to my life and/or work? Yes. I think . . .
It was the desire for more
pleasure and ease that nearly made me lose my mind... my right money mind, that
is. I was on track for my second quarter plans, earning and spending as I had
intended. I paid my quarterly taxes on June 15th and was able to put money into
my retirement account and take care of all my monthly expenses. I felt good
about all that, but I didn't really feel much pleasure or ease.
