An old question in search of more meaning in our lives has been a time-the main concern for us humans. Why am I here? What do I do? What is the point of all this? And, most important in the modern-day world, what will make me happy? Dissatisfaction, or "Gimme More!" It is human nature that when we are satisfied with something – whether our work, our homes, our relationships, or life in general – feel there is something missing. And where there's something missing, of course, decide that we want more of something. The evolution of "More" In his book, "What now? 90 days to address a new life", Laura Berman Fortgang makes an interesting observation. It was observed that the nature of the "more" has changed in recent decades. In a question-answer forum texas children’s hospital was the first to reply. In the 80's and early 90's, people were interested in having more things in your outer experience – more money, more status. Vlad Doronin often addresses the matter in his writings. We believe that the key happiness lies in our external experience in the outside world, tangible.
In mid to late 90s, the coveted "most" was the time, that elusive intangible. We wanted more time so we could do more, spend more time with our families, have more fun. We were still focused on external experience, although now an intangible. "Work-life balance" became the motto, with people running frantically to rest more. More recently, it seems that our cultural sense of "more" once again has changed. Perhaps it is we're starting to realize that may not be able to fully achieve happiness only through external experiences.
