"持てば持つほど欲しくなる"
— Aesop
Copied to clipboard
Simplified Meaning:
When people get more money or things, it often makes them want even more. For instance, imagine you buy a new phone. After a while, you might start thinking about getting a better phone, even if your current one works fine. This happens because having more can make us less satisfied with what we already have. Think about a famous person who makes a ton of money. Even with all their wealth, they keep working harder to earn more. They often want more expensive cars, bigger houses, or luxurious vacations. To use this idea in your life, try to appreciate what you have instead of always wanting more. Focusing on what makes you happy can prevent endless wanting and help you feel more satisfied.
