Back then in secondary school we were taught in economics that humans want is unlimited. This means that humans are never really satisfied with what they have, they always crave to have more.
NOTE: To be contented and satisfied are two different words.
Do not get me wrong. Humans will always want to be more better than what they are and have both physically, financially, educationally and spiritually. For the fact that you are able to eat three times a day, have a roof over your head, a paying job among other things does not mean you do not have to aim higher than what you have already have or dream big. It's often said there is no limit to what we can do... So think beyond the box.
A friend of mine once told me that you have to move from nothing to good, from good to better, from better to best. All these are stages of life. In order for one to move from one stage to another, you have to be willing and ready to face the challenges and risk so as to move from one level to another.
Being comfortable with where you are for the moment is not a crime but becomes a set back if you remain there for a very long time. Most people prefer to stay where they are today because they are afraid that if they try to take a risk that might elevate them to the next level that they will fail thus they resolve to remain where they are not knowing that even where they are now is not guaranteed and is also a risk on it own, they might lose it anyday and fall one or two steps down.
Imagine great men like DonaldTrump, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Aliko Dangote and others, everyday they think on how to improve upon what they have and acquired, they aim to go higher than where they are, irrespective of the fact that they already have it all.
If these men that have made wealth, name and fame and have tested the good things of life and afford them still fight to do more, then what about you that is yet to experience the things of life.
Another case is that of Davido, a popular Nigerian Musician, despite the fact that he was born with a silver spoon still fought to make it bigger and today he is making waves in his career. Many will argue that he had support from his people but if you will argue that then what will you say of many other persons that were born with silver spoon and they did nothing to add to it rather they were comfortable with what they had, when what they had failed them there was nothing left for them.
Christiano Ronaldo, in his response in the just concluded award as world best player said
"never seen anyone better than himself" meaning he is the best and will always strive to remain the best this is fighting for more even when he has gotten it all.
The point here is, if these people that are already wealthy still plan to make more wealth then what are you waiting for?
