More is a strange word. No matter how much you have, it always asks for something else.More money. More success. More followers. A bigger house. A better car. The next promotion.But when is more finally enough?In Tanzania, I saw families living in homes made from straw, mud and dung. Then one day, I saw a young Maasai boy running alongside us with a staff in his hand.He was smiling and waving.He wasn't trying to sell us anything. He wasn't asking us for anything.He just wanted us to wave back.Here was a child with dramatically less materially than my children had back home, yet he seemed completely full of joy.That moment challenged something I'd spent much of my life believing: that happiness was waiting somewhere on the other side of more.In Episode 179, we talk about ambition, success, contentment, the constantly moving finish line and Paul's words in Philippians 4:11:“I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.”You don't have to stop climbing to appreciate where you are.Maybe sometimes wealth is measured by how little you need in order to smile.📖 My book, Summit After the Storm, releases in less than two months.
