On happiness and dissatisfaction

It is not the material things that makes us happy. True happiness comes from inside. Those, who focus on their possession and the money they earn can´t be truly happy.

I think people get caught up with wanting the "next" thing. They feel they will only be happy once they get a promotion, make more money, go on a nice vacation, get a new car. As soon as they get one of those things, they feel a satisfaction at first, but then they get bored with it, the high fades and then they starting wanting the next thing. If people can't get past finding happiness externally, they will never learn how to be contented with what they have. 

It is a vicious cycle with lot of dissatisfaction in it!
