Why your needs can sometimes be better than your wants...

[00:00:00]And so, yeah, I'm thinking now that, you know, maybe just re-examine everything through again through a a lens of need, which I've always heard of like, "Well, what are your needs?" And I've always heard that as limitation. It's like, "You're going to limit me to my needs?

[00:00:14]That's not what I want." But, maybe at the end of the day it is. You know, not just bare necessities in the sense of like, "Oh, you have a roof over your head." I mean, I'm not going to go live in a shed.

[00:00:24]Or one of those like mini houses, the micro houses that people were doing for a while. I don't know if that's still a thing, but yeah, what what I'm saying is that there's a difference between the fantasy of something and how it looks versus the reality of it and if it actually fits for you.

[00:00:43]And that's something that only you can answer. You know, Oprah in her big house on the hill like that seems to work for her. For me, I don't know. It might work for me, too. But, as long as I have my cat who likes to stay in the bedroom, it wouldn't work for me because she's more important than those other rooms. Is what I'm getting at.
