Some people live in captivity to various material goods, things and money. But over time, they understand that it is worth more to value human relationships and the simple joys of life, rather than finances. You can rebuild, reconsider your worldview and become a more selfless person with the help of some work on yourself.
Instructions
Step 1
Take a look around and count how many extra things you have. Maybe at first glance it will seem to you that everything that belongs to you is simply necessary for you. But if you think about it and analyze the objects that you possess, more critically, then you will understand that this is not so. This simple exercise will convince you of your tendency to overestimate the importance of wealth. And this understanding is the first step towards becoming a more spiritual person.
Step 2
If you realize that you no longer need some clothes, shoes or other items, give them to poor families or to an orphanage. Understand that people need to share with those less fortunate in life. While you are mindlessly storing unnecessary items, someone may really need them.
Step 3
Learn to perceive people without assessing their financial situation. If you have stereotypes that the richer a person is, the more successful, better and more worthy of respect and imitation, get rid of them. You should only build relationships with others based on their character, behavior, and how they treat you. Those who choose friends based on social status are often left alone. Look for personal merit in people and try to find your soul mate.
Step 4
Understand that happiness doesn't depend on how much money you have. There is no direct relationship between the feeling of joy, fullness of life and the size of your bank account. If you do not see other human values, think about loved ones, health, pleasure from some kind of activity, love. Your attitude towards life, yourself and others is what is important for happiness.
Step 5
Stop looking for material gain in everything. There are more important things than her. For example, when agreeing to a project, think about what kind of professional growth it will provide you, and not about what kind of bonus you will be given for it. Concentration only on money gets in the way of getting real pleasure from life. Relax and enjoy yourself.
Step 6
Don't be afraid to spend money on yourself. Some people are greedy for more than just others. Even when it comes to themselves, satisfying their own needs or getting some kind of joy, they begin to show tight-fistedness. Avoid unnecessary savings. Finances should help you live, not become a raison d'être.
Step 7
Give gifts to friends, colleagues and loved ones. Feel the joy of giving not a symbolic and cheap trifle, but something that a person really dreamed of. Just start showing generosity towards others and you will see that over time you will become a more selfless person. Give joy and positive emotions, feel the drive from this.
