It does not mean tolerating negative things that you can change. If you can change something to better the situation that you are in, it only makes sense to do what you can to improve those elements in your life.

Being content is just one way to be happy, but it's a great way. Simplicity, of course, means many things to many people, but for me contentedness is at the core of simplicity. It's about being content with less, with a simpler life, rather than always wanting more, always acquiring more, and never being content.

- Take control of your attitude.
- Break the buying habit.
- Stop comparing yourself to others.
- Help others.
- Be content with what you have, never with what you are.
