In one of his interviews, Sadhguru shares a simple but powerful idea: every person is constantly seeking for a bigger slice of life. If someone is familiar only with money, they’ll want a bit more money. If they’ve experienced power, they’ll look for more power. If they live for recognition, they’ll chase more of that. It’s not really about the thing itself—it’s about the feeling that more might bring a richer experience of life.

This mindset shows up clearly in the world of trading.

Most traders start out with a strong focus on money. That’s completely understandable. But often, without realizing it, the focus narrows. Money is all you as a trader are becoming familiar with. And you start believing that just a little more money will make your experience of life just a little richer. It will be never enough.

That constant chasing can wear you out. It’s easy to lose sight of the bigger picture.

But what if trading could mean something else too?

What if it wasn’t just about money—but about what money can enable? Things like freedom, flexibility, or the ability to design your own day. If you shift your focus from chasing profits to building a lifestyle, your entire approach changes.

Instead of always thinking short-term, you start thinking in terms of systems. You become more interested in consistency than in quick wins. You pay more attention to your behavior, your mindset, and your ability to stick to a plan.

When your goal shifts from “more money” to “more freedom,” everything changes. You begin to care less about hitting a random profit target and more about building a sustainable system. You focus on discipline, patience, emotional mastery—not because it’s what traders are supposed to do, but because it brings you closer to a life where you’re in control of your time, your decisions, and your energy.

Yes, trading involves money. But if money is your only driver, it can become an endless loop. There’s always someone with more. There’s always more money to make.

But when you view trading as a tool to help you create the kind of life you want—whether that’s more time with your family, the freedom to travel, or simply the space to do work you enjoy—you bring more clarity and purpose into the process.

You stop chasing, and start building.

And that, perhaps, is the real “bigger slice of life” we’re all searching for. Or at least give you the freedom to discover what the “bigger slice of life” means to you.
