As I observed myself it looks like I never stop on planning to buy new things that I dont have yet.

What are the things you plan to buy? Are these NEEDS or WANTS?

Na, it is such a difficult thing to do especially now in the modern era, but I guess it is just a matter of self-discipline and control of your lifestyle. Do not waste on something not really important and just stick within your budget and spending capacity.

Just dont compare your self to other, enjoy little things that you have, stop criticizing your self and accept the fact that not everything in this world will be in your hands.

I think you have to keep on reminding yourself of what you had and what you have. It is easy to always want more. We are humans and we are never satisfied. You have to just be humble and keep yourself grounded. If you start to have gained and then you go crazy with everything you'll forget what is going and lose yourself.

It all boils down to how you see things and where you put value on. For example, you're not very keen with your stem ware because you're more of a beer drinker so drink from a cup. Then you will be content with a low end stem ware just so you have them when you do drink wine. But for a wine enthusiasts a high end stem ware is a must. That is how we should really think about our purchases, where do you put value on

Think of all the people who don't have a roof on top of their heads, think of those who lost their eyesight, think of those who struggle to survive every day.
For most of us, it's not that difficult at all.

You need to control yourself and think of your future. Instead of loosing your money try to invest it.

if you imagine that there is nothing around you? Your family disappeared. There is no smartphone. Everyone is talking in another language. Take care of what you have

The best way to celebrate all your wins and count your blessings

I read the law of attraction and personally keep blessing journal. Its a journal of all the good things that has happened to me so everyday I record all my blessings.

I also avoid reading the news paper and watching tv because it's negative. Good luck!

First, you must accept what you have and what you dont have after that it pretty much goes smoothly. Think of the bad side of the things you want, that would help you convince yourself that it's not that worth it. but just accepting it and understanding is the most effective way tbh.

For you to be contented on what you have, simply do not compare with others. Just think of those who are less fortunate who do not think of more than what they have.

When you care too much about social standing then you are not to be contented.
Being contented is a choice, it's not acquired or anything, you have to decide that you are contented, even so it is almost impossible because as a human being you are completely neglecting the essence of being human.
Humans seek knowledge, develop technologies, set out trends for everyone to follow, and a whole big sack of pleasurable activities like gambling, sex, or whatever, you name it.
These are all essential to our survival as a specie, hence we do all this because it is what living is.
If you are to be contented then you ought to be dead.

Remember there are many people who have less than you but still can survive with their life. It is important to not compare your self to others. Priorities the things that money cant buy than material things. Appreciate what you have.

Practice gratitude and appreciate what you have now,  and stop comparing your life to other people.  Somehow it will help you to be contented.  When you have all those things already you will realize that its not material things that will make you happy.

I was once like this but sooner or later you will realize these new things don't give what you actual want. And once you realize that you will stop buying these things because you realize you don't need new things to feel okay. Feeling good comes from within and mainly from fostering good relationships in life.

Maybe if you dont look at people what they have the things you dont have, and look at people what they dont have of what you have right now. Mybe that would help you to be contented.
