CONTENTMENT

Contentment is relative to some people. There are certain needs or desires that i have achieved  that i can be contented. Some one else may require lots of achievents to be satisfied. contentment doesnt necessarily means fulfillment, but to a great extent you can be contented and still feel fulfilled. Contentment means satisfaction with what you have at any given time. It can still mean, living within your means.

Contentment doesnt mean mediocrity as some people may think. You can be contented with what you have, where you work and what you have achieved thus far and still strive to achieve more, but not with desperation. In our societies today, alot of people are not satisfied with the little they have, hence the resort to crime, engage in activities that may endanger their health.

Pros of contentment
1. You are at peace with yourself and everyone around you. You're not under any form of pressure to impress anybody.
2. You believe you can achieve more as long as you work intelligently and a little harder.

Cons of discontentment
1. You find it difficult to live within your means. Your finances begin to suffer and it can resort to depression if care is not taken.
2. You become too desperate to achieve and get anything, which may become unhealthy and may expose you to alot of harm.
3. You constantly lack peace within.

For you to be truly contented, you need to be grateful for all that you have now and work intelligently so that you can achieve more without desperation. Our mental health is as inportant as our physical well being, lets be mindful of peer pressure and avoid trying to impress people. Live within your means, be happy, be grateful and be contented.
