I have also know many individuals who engage in business who fail or neglect their own relaxation and leisure because they're busy increasing their wealth or net worth. They surprise later in life that they forget to enjoy the sunrise, singing of birds, the dew in the morning and other free provisions in nature which they can enjoy if they want. But because of the pursuit of money, these businessmen forget all these until they find they're not happy after all. Worst, they're now sick and can no longer enjoy their wealth because they're in and our in the hospital.
If we can have the necessities in living--nutritious foods, shelter, clothing, education of children, money for emergency--put a rest. Be reflective. Enjoy life. Listen to soothing music. That's life.
Too much work for money is like binding the wind which you can't. Our desire is insatiable. The more money we earn the more thirsty we are for more. Some are tempted to put a shortcut to wealth. They do everything either good or bad just to acquire more money. Some are stealing. Some use their astuteness to fool their fellow men. When they have now a six-figure income, are they happy? Or they become more miserable deep inside because they're still sad.
I read a warning that "Don't trasport gold in your graveyard". You can't really bring your wealth when you die. Some of us are putting a requsite to our happiness when we say, " If I have this amount then I'd be happy. This is wrong because even if you're in your simplest existence because you have no penny to spend you can still be happy.
So, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Enjoy life and don't make money as your requisite for happiness.
