Enough?
At this stage of our lives, “enough” isn’t about settling—it’s about freeing yourself from what no longer serves you. To feel like you have enough, you don’t need to add more. You need to LET GO.
Start by letting go of comparison. You’ve lived through decades of changes, adaptations, triumphs, and losses. Comparing your life, health, or finances to others steals peace. Each person’s path has its own rhythm. Remind yourself: “I trust the road I’ve traveled—it’s uniquely mine.”
Let go of chasing perfection. Your body doesn’t work like it did at 40! Accepting what in the mirror this morning, opens the door to gratitude. Each morning you wake up and move—is proof of “enough.” Keep doing the next right thing… “Eat to nourish, move to stay strong.”
Release your guilt and regrets. You did your best with what you knew then. Carrying the past only weighs down the present. Don’t let yesterday steal your joy today.
Stop overcommitting. Saying “NO” can be the kindest thing you do for yourself. Leave room for whatever IS nourishing—quiet mornings, laughter with friends, a walk in nature. Busyness can feel like purpose, but rest is what restores meaning.
Let go of the need for more stuff. Possessions can clutter the mind as much as the closet. Keep what you use and what you love; give the rest away. Lightening your load will be a gift to others, too.
And finally, let go of self-judgment. You’ve earned the right to “mind-ease”. Gratitude begins when you recognize what you have captured—your wisdom, your kindness, your resilience.
Feeling like you have enough is NOT a destination. It’s a CHOICE to repeat daily: I have what I need to enjoy this day fully.
