What's up everybody I hope you are all having a great week! In this week's episode I will be talking about why "keeping up with the joneses" is destroying peoples' lives and self worth. We have to be sure not to link our value in the material possessions that we own or want to own. This is especially a problem now with the rampant consumption of social media. Every single day we are blasted with info with how this person got a new car or how another person paid off their house. While these are things we should be proud of other people for it can be easy to become super cynical and want to compete with these people. Keeping up with the Joneses will never satisfy. As a whole we all need to learn to be more grateful for what we have instead of chasing the "new" thing every day.
