The Freedom of Enough
When Less is More
Part 1
by Sharon L. Demarte

Page: 1 2

What is enough? When is less more? These are questions I ponder. I recommend a book, Your Money or Your Life, by Joe Dominguez and Vicki Robin. Dominguez and Robin purport that money = our life energy. They write, "Our life energy is our allotment of time here on earth, the hours of precious life available to us."

To put this in perspective, they write, "If you are 40 years old, you can expect to have approximately 329,601 hours (37 years) of life energy left before you die." I think there's a problem with their math. Thirty-Seven years equals 324,120 hours on my calculator.

I'm 56 years old, so I can expect about 183,960 hours (21 years) of life energy left. As fast as an hour goes for me, 183,960 hours doesn't seem like a lot. I want to make the most out of those precious hours.

We trade our life energy for money when we go to our jobs. And, then we spend the money that we have traded our life energy for on necessities, comfort items and then luxuries. A certain amount of spending is fulfilling, but that only goes to a point " it's called the 'peak of the Fulfillment Curve'.

That peak is called 'enough'. Once we have paid for our necessities, comfort items and a few luxuries, we reach the 'enough' point. Anything we buy beyond that ceases to be fulfilling and actually becomes an energy drain. This point of 'enough' is unique to and must be discovered by each person.

I have seen this fulfillment principle at work at children's birthday parties and Christmas celebrations. A child opens the first few presents with joy and excitement. Then there comes a point when the joy and excitement is replaced by frenzy.

They start unwrapping the gifts as fast as they can, barely looking at each one before they're on to the next one. Then, after unwrapping a multitude of gifts, they ask, "Is that all there is?"

As parents and grandparents, we are disappointed because they don't seem to appreciate what we've given them. We've given them too much! They've gone beyond the 'enough' point and the remainder is too much " it's no longer fulfilling. Would they enjoy these celebrations more if we gave them less? I think so.
