Is your system amazing and you just dont see it?

Human nature is highly critical, never satisfied, wants continual change and variety.  So after working so hard and spending a fair sum, the system in place is actually quite good.  So why not enjoy the smell of the roses, which are perfectly satisfying, nature knows what we like.

sure i will likely do more but the quality of whats here is at a very high level. Took alot of work and so i can be satisfied, not easy.  
Its ok not to want things to be better all the time.  Go against the grain of human nature.

I am now retired and just before I did retire I got myself a very expensive headphone and computer system . I built a bespoke computer for myself using the best components I could source and it and the headphones and phone Amp cost a fortune. I was so pleased with my new system that it totally blew my standard hi fi rig right out of the water . The levels of detail were so astonishing that I sold my old stuff which paid for my new headphone rig and even had enough for a classic motorcycle also.
I now am totally happy with what I have and not had the urge to buy anything else for years. I am happy in the knowledge that I am hearing much more information than people with equipment in 5 or even 6 figures.

I try to live with the philosophy ‘want what you have’

I enjoy my system and I am sure it can be improved and others would prefer something else. And I even question if it was worth the time and money - most days I would say yes and the other days would have me downsize to live out of a suitcase.
