I was in a state of frustration, about not being able to buy the things we wanted and not having enough.<\/p>\n<p>Yet everyday, we have three square meals. We have a warm home with hot running water. We have beds and furniture. We have good sanitation.<\/p>\n<p>I have a car that has given me no trouble since I bought it two years ago. I have enough clothes to wear a different set everyday of the week.<\/p>\n<p>I have a wife who loves me and three healthy children.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, I complain about not having enough!<\/p>\n<p>I believe that is good to never get into a state of being comfortable because discomfort helps you to grow. It also gives you the fuel for moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, being content is very important.<\/p>\n<p>Money and material possessions should never be the solution to your personal contentment. In fact if they are, you will never be content! You will always be seeking more.<\/p>\n<p>But when you are content, no matter what situation you are in, you are in a better place to be <em>creating wealth<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>I would even venture to say that without contentment, you are not creating the right environment for <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">creating wealth<\/span>!<\/p>\n<p>So in conclusion, by all means remain uncomfortable in your situation, so you can grow and pursue change but seek to be content whatever situation you are in.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/simple2advertise.com\/c\/?u=paymorson&amp;c=secondchance&amp;ad=\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: 0px\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn1.simple2advertise.com\/banners\/secondchance\/Second-Chance-728-X-90.jpg\" width=\"100%\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Creating Wealth: Part 3: Content But Not Comfortable<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my journey to creating wealth, I am discovering some powerful principles that I believe anybody on this journey needs to grasp in order to make money and change their situation.
