Tip #1: Happiness Is Not Bought — It’s Created

Why Buying More Doesn’t Create Fulfillment

The Illusion of Retail Therapy

Creating Instead of Consuming

Gratitude Over Instant Gratification

Happiness isn’t bought. It’s created.

Without realizing this, absolutely nothing changes.

Simply put; possessions mean nothing.

Yeah, we need “things” for day-to-day life. Products to cook, clean, take care of ourselves, do projects, entertain.

But, these “things” do not bring us joy.

Absolutely nothing from a store will bring you life-lasting joy.

Joy isn’t bought; it’s experienced.

Happiness is created.

Get out there, make wonderful memories!

By “get out there” I mean fun activities besides shopping. I used to shop for fun on the weekend. Often spending $20 to $100 per store.

Buying and acquiring. It’s “fun”. But it’s never enough. The next thing comes along, and the next. It’s a hole that can never be filled.

It’s time to rhyme! “Man-made, from the store; leaves you wanting for more”.

Fulfill life with all living things;
Nature
People
Animals

God created us to be stewards of the Earth. Loving, caring, and nurturing to all those who breathe.

Create a lasting joy; be fulfilled. Fill up your time with living things. These experiences will breathe life right into you!

Experience the joy!
