Listen "Will it ever be enough?"
Episode Synopsis
No matter what we achieve, earn, or buy, it never seems to be enough. Why do we always want more?
In this episode of Thinking Differently, I explore how society conditions us to keep striving for upgrades—bigger houses, better jobs, and endless self-improvement. But does this actually lead to happiness? Or are we stuck on a never-ending treadmill of wanting?
I break down how capitalism fuels this mindset, why minimalism offers an alternative perspective, and practical ways to redefine success.
I also talk about gratitude, the power of now, and how to focus on what truly matters. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion on escaping the ‘More’ Mindset.
Share your thoughts: Are you stuck in the cycle of wanting more? Let’s discuss!

All ideas discussed in this episode are subjective and subject to change over time. I am never saying my ideas are the only truth. Everyone has to make their own decisions on what they think and what they believe.
Any generalisations or nuance missed is never meant as a deliberate act of ill will towards any specific persons or groups.
It is my hope that my ideas will be just the catalyst for your own questions and journey around this subject.
