Many years ago I was a regular practitioner of yoga āsana and my teacher said to me more than once "you have plenty to work with, that is enough for now".  I understood that message only recently, something like 20 years later; in the meanwhile I have played the "not enough" game time and again; particularly with knowledge.  And then I remember her words; and the beginnings of contentment arise, sometimes ..
