WHY YOU WILL NEVER SAY “I HAVE ENOUGH”

Because what you’re chasing is imaginary — and the body has no satiety feedback for illusions.

“You will never say ‘I have enough’ because what you’re chasing isn’t real — and your body cannot feel full from illusions.”

🧠 1. NATURAL SATIETY EXISTS ONLY FOR REAL, BIOLOGICAL NEEDS

Your body is designed to give clear start and stop signals for real, physical needs:

Real Need — Trigger — Satiety Signal

Hunger — Empty stomach — Fullness, satisfaction

Thirst — Dry mouth — Moisture, quenched

Sleep — Fatigue — Refreshed waking

Cold — Low temperature — Warmth, comfort

Heat — Sweating — Coolness, relief

Social need — Loneliness — Presence, belonging

But for artificially constructed needs, there is no built-in “enough” signal.

---

🚫 2. IMAGINARY NEEDS HAVE NO SATIETY POINT

These include:

Money – How much is “enough”?

Power – Does anyone retire from control?

Fame – Does anyone feel fully seen?

Status – Can one ever stop comparing?

Beauty – When is the face finally good enough?

Success – What is the final level?

Validation – How many likes are “enough”?

Gold, land, titles – What is the finish line?

Why?

Because these are imaginary currencies, created by:

Society (to measure you)

Economy (to trap you)

Institutions (to control you)

Your body doesn’t recognize them as needs — so no satiety kicks in.

---

🔁 3. THE MORE YOU SEEK, THE LESS YOU FEEL

Unlike real needs (which calm down when met), these imaginary ones agitate more when fed.

You Chase… — You Get… — But You Feel…

Followers — More attention — More insecurity

Promotions — More money — More pressure

Beauty — More products — More self-hate

Property — More land — More fear of loss

Success — Awards, praise — Deeper hollowness

> Real needs end. Imaginary needs expand.

💸 4. MONEY, GOLD, PROPERTY — NO ENDPOINT

Money: A man with ₹1 crore wants ₹2 crores. A man with ₹100 crores wants ₹200. Ask them. They’ll say “I don’t feel secure yet.”

Gold: Why do the rich keep buying it? To feel rich enough? They already are. But there is no feedback mechanism — only fear of losing.

Property: No one buys “just one.” They want 2 houses, then 5, then land, then a farmhouse.

The poor dream of a 2BHK. The rich dream of cities.

It never ends because there is no internal "stop" signal.

---

💼 5. POWER AND CONTROL ARE BOTTOMLESS ADDICTIONS

CEOs don’t stop after one company.

Politicians don’t quit after one term.

Even local leaders keep contesting elections till death.

Power isn’t addictive because it’s joyful — it’s addictive because it feeds insecurity.

Just like sugar feeds parasites, power feeds the fear of being powerless.

And that fear has no limit.

---

👩‍🎤 6. FAME IS THE HUNGER THAT GROWS WHEN FED

A singer becomes famous. But then wants to stay relevant.

A spiritual guru becomes a brand. Now must maintain public image.

An actor gets millions of followers. Now fears cancellation.

You never arrive.

You just move the bar forward.

---

📱 7. DIGITAL VALIDATION MAKES YOU STARVE FOR IMAGINARY FOOD

“How many people liked my post?”

“Did they see my story?”

“Am I trending?”

There is no natural satiety for digital attention.

You’re not actually being “seen.”

So the hunger restarts every morning.

---

🧬 8. ARTIFICIAL DESIRES HIJACK YOUR BIOLOGY

Examples:

Makeup tricks you into thinking beauty needs work.

Gym bodies trick you into feeling inadequate.

Real estate ads make your current house feel too small.

News & media remind you that you’re behind.

You are flooded with illusions of what you lack — and never given a chance to feel full.

---

🧠 9. NO "ENOUGH" SIGNAL FOR COMPARISON-BASED LIVING

Real needs are independent.

Imaginary needs are comparative.

You’re not just eating — you’re eating more than him.

You’re not just earning — you want more than them.

You're not just safe — you want a safer place than others.

And because comparison is endless, the need to “have more” is also endless.

---

🚪 10. THE EXIT IS NOT ADDITION. IT’S SUBTRACTION.

You will never say “I have enough” if you keep adding.

You will only feel it when you subtract:

Subtract needs.

Subtract comparisons.

Subtract imaginary benchmarks.

Subtract the belief that someone else’s life is better.

That’s when satiety reactivates — because you return to real life.

To real food. Real people. Real moments. Real limits.

---

🔚 FINAL TRUTH

You were made to feel full after food, rest after sleep, peace after warmth.

But you were reprogrammed to:

Buy endless gold

Accumulate infinite digital followers

Earn until you die

Hoard property you’ll never live in

Look younger every year

And chase what cannot be eaten, touched, or slept in

That’s why you never say “I have enough.”

Because what you seek isn’t real.

And only the real has an end.

YOU NEVER ARRIVE, BROTHER

you were born

with a body that knew

when to stop eating,

when to sleep,

when to shit.

but they took you,

cleaned you up,

cut your hair,

pushed you into a classroom

with fifty others

and taught you how to forget that knowing.

they showed you the photos

of people who had

more

and told you to become

like them.

not yourself.

never yourself.

they put a mark sheet in your hand

and said

“this is your worth.”

they whispered

“this will make you rich.”

they laughed

when you asked

“how much is enough?”

now you're

32,

working in a Bengaluru tech park

with 14 open browser tabs

and a salary that dies before the month ends.

you order Swiggy

and stare at your phone

because chewing hurts more than scrolling.

your father

still tells you

you must buy a flat,

“own land, son, or you’re a nobody.”

he has 3 plots

and still doesn’t sleep.

your mother

prays to ten gods

and still fears the neighbour

who wears more gold.

you married

because the relatives asked,

and now your wife wants

a bigger car,

a better fridge,

a fancier school

for the child

who just wants you to come home early.

you keep chasing.

chasing more

of what never fed you

in the first place.

you tell yourself

“it’s for the future.”

but the future never came

for the man in the cubicle beside you

who died on a Thursday

before the loan cleared.

you stare at ads

for shoes you don’t need

on feet that never walked barefoot

on real ground.

you save for vacations

you’ll forget in three days.

you fear falling behind

but you don’t know

who’s ahead.

you don’t feel the wind,

but you chase the AC.

you don’t feel your breath,

but you check your smart watch.

you have an app

for peace of mind.

and another

for your mental breakdown.

you think you're smart

because you read the news,

but you don't know the name

of the farmer who grew your rice.

you eat rice

polished like your resume

and just as empty.

you pray to gods

you don’t trust,

vote for leaders

you don’t believe in,

and work for companies

that wouldn't attend your funeral.

you say

“I’m doing it for my family”

but your family only sees

your back

as you leave at 8am

and return at 9

with dead eyes

and one-word answers.

you worship money

but it doesn’t recognize you.

you think you are free

because you have options

but none of them are

“rest.”

none of them are

“enough.”

you buy comfort

but you can’t feel comfort.

you buy security

but you sleep with fear.

you go to therapy

but you don't weep.

you take pills

but you don't rest.

you meditate

but you don’t listen.

you look in the mirror

and see a face

built by expectations,

not truth.

your real face

was left behind

somewhere in a village,

barefoot,

laughing,

eating mangoes

with dirty hands

and no bank balance.

you think you’re educated

but you’ve never learned

how to stop.

you were born

with the ability to say

“I am full.”

but the world trained you

to keep eating

empty things

forever.
