When is enough “enough”? In general, people have different understandings of what is “enough”. The format goes as “I want to do X to do Y”. “I want to have enough savings to acquire a home.” “I want to be in a relationship to not feel lonely.” “I want to get promoted so that I can create a bigger impact at work.”
It all comes down to knowing thyself: your goals, priorities, wants, needs, in the present and in the future. What you may find enough now might change. And that’s the difficult part. On one end of the spectrum, you might feel lacking, and on the other, ecstasy. People then get lost on the benchmark. Without a ceiling to reach and stop at, you’ll never feel satisfied.
Hence, it’s important to evaluate yourself consistently. Do I need more of X to do Y, or can I live with it for now and be happy and content? Sometimes, you don’t need more of X. What if what you need is change?
