“Freedom isn’t found by chasing everything you want but by letting go of the need to want.” - Epictetus

Our brains are wired to always strive for more, and while this drive has fueled human progress, more doesn’t always equal happiness.

True contentment comes from appreciating what you have and taking pride in your efforts.

Epictetus teaches us that real freedom isn’t about fulfilling every desire, but learning to let go of the endless chase for more.

Focus on doing the work well. Fulfilment comes from the effort, not the outcome.

Push forward, but stay grounded.

Recognize when enough is enough and celebrate the progress you've made.

Actionable tips:

  • Focus on the quality of your work and client relationships instead of obsessing over closing every deal.
  • Ask yourself if you're making decisions based on need or greed. Shift your mindset to long-term value rather than short-term wins.

Remember you will die.
