I agree 100%. In fact, our goal is for everyone to achieve financial freedom. Also, great quote by Tony Robbins. He has done a lot to help many people achieve financial freedom. I think it's all about deciding what we are committed to. Most people are committed to going to work each day and paying the rent. If we are going to be financially free in the future, we have to commit to making it happen now. Great post! I agree 100%. In fact, our goal is for everyone to achieve financial freedom.

There are so many different angles you take with this. Being satisfied, not having to deal with more stuff (or getting rid of your old stuff!), and wanting your money to do greater good elsewhere. Thanks for stopping by! Being satisfied if a big part of not wanting to run out and grab everything off the shelves.

I think it's a worthy goal and a much-better use of everyone's money. As to the topic at hand, I think you've presented a very interesting point. I think financial freedom has a lot to do with gratitude as well, and the idea of being happy with what we currently have (while finding the right balance of drive and motivation to excel and get ahead). Something @garyvee said in a recent keynote struck me--we've all gotten kind of soft--instead of being happy with a 27" TV, we think a 52" is a necessity. I think this perceived "lowering of standards," which in reality is just a return to sanity, is an important first step in the road to financial freedom. As you rightfully point out, it has enormous long-term benefits.
