Necessary requirement for life

If you carefully consider the things you really need to live, they are
quite limited. You can survive without air for five minutes or so,
without water for five days or so, and without food for five weeks or
so. Not that you would intentionally create any of these situations.
In terms of money, none of these needs is very expensive to meet.
Regarding money, if you give yourself only what you need, then
you won’t have very much. People who think that money is primarily for survival are already as rich as that sort of thinking will ever
get them.
For most people, need has already created a “must” motivation.
To render more effective the internal motivation you already have
about need, increase the scope of the items you must have and the
things you must do. Hitherto unnoticed resources come to awareness when you think or say “I must do this” or “I must have that.”
