"The greatest joy comes from giving and..." - Quote by Wayne Dyer
The greatest joy comes from giving and serving, so replace your habit of focusing exclusively on yourself and what's in it for you. When you make the shift to supporting others in your life, without expecting anything in return, you'll think less about what you want and find comfort and joy in the act of giving and serving.

“Softly and kindly remind yourself, ''I cannot own anything.'' It is a valuable thought to keep in mind as you struggle to improve your financial picture, worry about investments, and plan how to acquire more and more. It is a universal principle which you are part of. You must release everything when you truly awaken. Are you letting your life go by in frustration and worry over not having enough? If so, relax and remember that you only get what you have for a short period of time. When you awaken you will see the folly of being attached to anything.”
“Simply be the qualities you seek in others.”
“Procrastination is One of those Excuses, Born of Fear, that we Use to Keep Ourselves Stuck”
More on Giving
“There's not a day I live that doesn't start with me getting up and first saying, "What can I do for somebody else?" Whether that means sending something to one of my children or picking up the phone and calling a stranger who is in the hospital, I start every day by wanting more for others than I do for myself.”
“A person's level of income and their desire to give have nothing to do with one another.”
“Love is not about getting - but giving.”
More on Service
“The greatest living person in the world is some individual who at this very moment has gone in love to help another.”
“I must not serve a distant neighbour at the expense of the nearest.”
“It is not enough to merely exist. It's not enough to say, 'I'm earning enough to live and support my family. I do my work well. I'm a good parent.' That's all very well. But you must do something more.”
