Formula for Contentment

I’ve learned

by now

to be quite content.

— Philippians 4:12

I love this —

Rachel Cruze‘s formula for contentment is based on gratitude, humility, and contentment. She suggests that being grateful for what you have can help you feel content and avoid comparing yourself to others. 

Gratitude 

• Recognize the blessings in your life
• Write down two things you’re grateful for
• Be thankful for what you have

Humility 

• Think of others more and yourself a little less
• Be humble and not compare your life to others

Contentment 

• Be happy for others and not want what they have
• Be at peace with where you are
• Slow down and enjoy what you have

Bet we come back to this.
