Use What You Have (You're Richer Than You Think)!

I actually have to remind myself to do this , because we're not really encouraged to do what it is I'm about to tell you to do . Okay , we definitely

, for sure . I think I can't imagine anyone would refute this . We live in an age of consumption . It's buying more , having more , more . More more is better . Everything bigger , everything newer , everything flashier . But what if , even though we're bombarded with advertising , we're bombarded with what everybody else is doing ?

We're constantly seeing our need for upgrades in every area of our lives ? What if we decided , at least for today , at least for this week , maybe even at least for this month , we don't need more , nothing , we don't need more .

And one way that you can implement this to start to feel better now and even to have fun right now , exactly where you are with what you have is to use what you

have .

I can't tell you how many times I've had to actually physically move , move locations , move apartments , move cities , move countries to remember how much I have , the accessories that are tucked away , the stuff that I don't see , the stuff at the back of the kitchen cupboards like , oh I forgot I had this nice little crystal that was a gift , doesn't this ?

I mean , when you think about it , what you've already accumulated and acquired in your life , even if it doesn't feel like a lot compared to other people . I would say , from my own experience , most of us have more than we think .

So , instead of jumping to purchase something which I know is an easy way to get a quick dopamine hit , an easy way to feel a bit better , what if you use what you have ? Here are some examples Books you already have on your shelf . Read them , reread them .

I can't tell you how many memes I see about people who buy books and they're like they're piling up and I'll get to them one day . And then we keep purchasing more and more . Read what you have , read what's on the shelf . I bet you're a book lover if you like this podcast , and there are some books on your shelf on your Kindle , on your iPad .

However , you consume in your audio book library that you haven't consumed yet . You simply haven't . But of course , that ego , that part of us that wants more , more , more , is like oh , I need a new book . Oh , I need to go check out Amazon . I need , I need what ?

If you have your next perfect read already , you just need to remind yourself that it's there . It's the same thing when it goes to , when it comes to clothes wearing what you already have .

Look , I know this one's tricky , because it's very exciting to get a new outfit , but really imagine someone brand new comes to your home and is going through your rack , is going through your sweaters , is going through your shorts , your summer dresses .

I'm sure you've got some cool items that if you saw them in a store right now , you'd go oh , I need that , I want that . That's cute . But it's so easy for us to forget what it is we already possess . What if you just went through your closet and you found a few things that you could wear in completely fresh ways ? It feels almost new .

People might even comment on it . You're like oh , I forgot I had this green top . Oh , I forgot I had this pair of shoes . Oh , I forgot about this belt , I forgot about this bag . I forgot about jewelry too . Wear what you have read what you have , wear what you have .

And when it comes to even something like wanting to sharpen your skills in a certain area , I am so thrilled and grateful . We live in this age of online education , where so much is available to us and we get to really have a university in our living room . We have access to so much , so many incredible teachers and courses and programs and memberships .

But before you even dive into another one , is there one that you've not logged into yet ? Do you have a course , maybe some form of membership , access to something that you've purchased that you've never logged into ? Or maybe you haven't logged into in a year or more ? And , ooh , that information's pretty great .

It is just waiting for you , begging you , saying come this way , look this way , don't look over there , don't look over there , come on home . You've got me , let's begin . I've done this . I did this recently with a , with a YouTube program that I joined . It was a group coaching program and I forgot I've got access to so much incredible content .

Yes , I can continue to learn and I always want new and fresh material , but I already have some of the best teaching out there that I've already paid for . What about you ? This is how you can feel good now without spending a dollar .

This is how you can feel good now by using what you have , and if we possess things and we don't use them , it violates the law of use . Nothing is created to just sit there and gather dust . Nothing exists just for a temporary moment of pleasure at the point of purchase , only just to be tossed to the back of your closet .

Where can you use what you have ? Also , go through your pantry . I was given some really fancy olive oil a flavored olive oil at an event once and I was looking for something else and I was like oh , why have I never used this ? This could inspire a whole new , simple dinner that I could cook .
