I just opened Facebook and read a short, but meaningful post. in the post it says

Quote
A mountain of gold would not be enough for a greedy person.
But, a plate of food is enough for a grateful person


I ponder when I do daily trading in the crypto market, I often get profit even though it is not too much, But I am always annoyed and irritated if the profit I get is not on target. I forgot to be grateful and hopefully, I can be a grateful person even though I get a little profit from crypto trading.
Thank you for the reminder, but I'm the type of person that is always grateful for what I receive every day, even if it's not much.

I genuinely value it and consider it a big blessing because some people can't even reach what I'm achieving today, so it's enough for me to be pleased. Even a modest percentage gain results in a profit, and I'm relieved that no red text appears.

Gratitude is the obligation of all humans, today I am grateful because I am still given a straight faith, and a lot of fortune, given health and much more even though I am at home because I can't work in the office. I am always optimistic in life that what we do is follow the destiny line of the creator of the world.

Since our faith is in his hands, I agree. This is for religious folks, thus I believe we should respect it and find no problem with it. When I lost my work earlier this year, I put my faith in God and began applying for jobs and hoping to be accepted, which is exactly what I did. What I've learned over time is that if I ever lose a job, there will be a better one waiting for me, which is why I have complete faith in him. Also, if your life right now is really bad, don't worry, you'll get back on track since life is like a Ferris wheel; sometimes you're down, and sometimes you're up.

Greediness controls everything especiially if there was a great opportunity. It can't be help since it's human nature but if we let the greediness in us takes control, that's when we lost. People who are blinded by greed fails.

Greedy people cannot be satisfied for the things that they have. They would only realize its importance if everything they have is gone.

That is why i am thankful and satisfied that i have a great piece of mind. Which let's me control my emotions, act, and body. It led me to have a peaceful life and a happy life.

A small profit does not mean a bad thing, of course it will be a very valuable process to lead us to a better step, and it is possible that in the next step we will reap higher profits. While it is important to be based on gratitude, with gratitude... whatever we get will be more meaningful, so we really enjoy the process step by step, until the time comes for us to touch high profits.

Let's see Bitcoin is still on ATH nowadays, and the role of Bitcoin is increasingly being recognized in its popularity, especially in economic life, it has helped many people, many people are grateful of course, including me and it must be, we are helped by something new that has proven to have a good important role.

I believe we've all been grateful as we are still alive despite the crisis we face today.
A lot of people become hopeless as they don't find a job to work and earn money but you OP have found trading is a good source of money. And gladly you are contented enough with a few dollars in returns, just keep doing that way, never becoming greedy as this might cost you into losing.

It is quite difficult to be grateful every day if your family has nothing to eat and you have to survive every day and encounter difficulties from which you depends you to live in poverty and hunger, or not.
Of course, the most important thing is health and life, and to such philosophy you can come only through losses and agrees.

You are very right and I think we all need to give thanks to God. Sometimes we have the possibility if doing something and not knowing what to do or how we can appreciate nature for such thing. I was once making consistent money trading but greed could not allow me to know what I was enjoying until I saw similar persons complaining to me of losing in same trades I usually make profits but not still appreciate or value what I was enjoying.
We all have to understand that this life is not balance. The level one is complaining of is the level another person is praying to reach. We just have to thank for everything.

Someone is happy living on roadside without any luxury facilities but others are eating medicines in villas and apartments and their needs are never ending and want to gain more wealth.Some persons one get on rich list then they want to create their names on above top rich list and add more to their networth as greed increases with this.Needs are increasing due to our expenses and we can survive happily even with less but as usual the world is running in the same rat race to be ahead of others.
As much I hate this race, I feel that it's the fuel to a better tomorrow. Imagine if everyone was satisfied with what we had in ancient times, we would have never advanced as much as we have today.

It's just important to remain satisfied with what we have while still try and improve towards the next level. Thriving to do better has no problem but only as long as the competition is healthy and not toxic.

As our community is quite young, we can understand from a gamer's point of view. There is no harm in trying to improve regularly but the improvement must not come at the cost of someone else's loss.

however, in terms of economics, I am still very grateful to this day. I still have some income that can propel my life day by day, and I'm grateful for that. besides that I can still earn some crypto coins, although sometimes I'm disappointed with the results, but I'm still very grateful for it. At this time I am also still trying to achieve my dream, and I am also grateful for that.

thank you for the quote that makes me feel better than before.  Cry

I thank you for sharing this quote, being greedy makes me fell useless when everything is gone. It is true that a plate is enough for a grateful person because too much isn't good. The quote is like giving a person a food or teaching a person to get a food.
Indeed a very honest quote. There is simply no end to greed. The more you get, the more you want basically.

It all depends on what perspective you have. There are two types of people:-

1- The ones who compare themselves to the rich and get frustrated while still achieving more than the average person.

2- The ones who look down upon the poor and feel blessed to live the life they are living and be very satisfied with what they have and don't mind losing a bit from it.

everyone has their own path of choice, it could be the last choice they have because it is very difficult to find a job, especially now. and indeed to live now must be brave to survive so as not to be oppressed by others.
but don't sacrifice everything to make an uncertain wish. quite sure of yourself is a positive thing that can be used as an expression of gratitude to yourself and not looking down on others and what they do can also be a form of gratitude because mutual respect is important.
Nothing wrong with a simple wish, it's not like it's going to be true, think of it as a daydream. Only time that a wish can come true is if we were to do the work and make it come true. I am sure there's no such thing as uncertain wish, just uncertain people.

Almost everyone has a desire to get high profits in cryptocurrency investments, therefore not a few traders who experience huge losses due to endless greed, I myself am also sometimes dissatisfied with the results I get in investing but remembering the beggars on the side of the road made me realize to be grateful for what I have now


Always being grateful is the right step, sometimes we are too greedy to get rich immediately or get a profit when trading, I've traded and got more than 100% profit, but because I believe that I will continue to profit, the price drops and I only profit 20%, but I'm still grateful that the coins I traded didn't last long to become a scam.

It is a thing of joy and one should always be grateful in any situation one founds himself or herself,
For everything desired by us will be granted only at one click.
The little one has should be enough for him or her so as to open doors for more to come and for things to fall in pleasant places for us all.
Its just a matter of time and we will all be glad and be ever grateful for whatever we see happening to us today.

Wealth will certainly change all sides of human life and usually with wealth will make human nature greedy because basically humans will never be satisfied and feel never enough when they already have property, both small and large, which has been obtained, and greedy people, they will never know how to be grateful for what they have.

It took me a while to find my way here to your thread, but YES, I am very grateful for many things.  One of the very best threads I have found here at bitcointalk.  Thank you for starting this!

 Smiley

I learned in recent years that you (anyone) can increase your own personal power to have more gratitude in life, really that works for almost any positive goal that you may want...  Gratitude is spiritually very powerful.  Ask, and you will receive.  Search, and you will find.  Gentle but persistent positive thinking yields results (given some time and serious effort).  You don't even have to fully believe, you can "fake it 'til you make it."  I learned this years ago.

And once you start making progress, making further progress becomes easier.  This is all testable, give some sincere effort to be grateful (and/or otherwise positive thoughts to change your life), you will almost surely see positive change.  It has worked for me.

And there is no downside to gratitude or reverence or spiritual thinking in your life.

Human nature is never satisfied, so many people live in greed. Indeed, we should be very grateful for what we have now, because there are still
many people whose lives are full of shortcomings. If we are too greedy, it will be unhealthy in life, I agree we should be grateful even if it only has
a plate of food. Such a mindset will give us peace in living life.

I am grateful for each day because we will not control our way of life although some things we manage but most of it we will not manage. i feel a day of our lives is a crucial day for us and a blessing like maybe Allah or God is that the way we lead our lives regardless of what we are saying. i feel we are grateful for each day because we will make the proper decisions in many of our lives, therein case we will say we are grateful.
