Excellent post! I would recommend along with living some every day and being grateful for what we have, we can all follow the below Charlie Munger’s advice:
“Spend each day trying to be a little wiser than you were when you woke up. Discharge your duties faithfully and well. Systematically you get ahead, but not necessarily in fast spurts. Nevertheless, you build discipline by preparing for fast spurts. Slug it out one inch at a time, day by day. At the end of the day – if you live long enough – most people get what they deserve.”
My goodness, does this get at my human-ness of wanting what’s next.
I didn’t think about it, but when I am wanting what’s next, I am actually wishing for less time…and time is the only resource we have that we cannot get back.
I went from college basketball coach, to k-12 teacher, to window washer (in every stage of my career, I was waiting for what was next…how much did I miss out on in the moment)?
I completely agree. But I prefer to believe that just as stocks have intrinsic value, human beings also have intrinsic value besides external market factors. Unless ofcourse we go along with the evolutionists and play survival of the fittest which is a whole other ball game.
