Here's this week's SMDP Mentor Moment
Nothing wrong with wanting more

There is usually some guilt attached to wanting more out of life especially if you are doing relatively well. We are constantly telling ourselves or being told that we should be satisfied, that we already have enough and that asking for more is greedy or ungrateful. The thing is, wanting more is not always necessarily due to lack. Sometimes people just want something.
