I bake a homemade bread, from scratch. Since I put a lot of time and effort, the bread tastes good and I appreciate it more. It is definitely easier to pick up some at a store, but I enjoy baking. It gives me a feeling of creation. With flour, yeast and other basic ingredients, you knead the dough with your hands, allow it to rise in a warm-atmosphere, gently roll out and fold the dough and bake it in the oven. The best part of baking is that you can get to watch the bread to puff up in its proofing process and again in the oven. That act of "puffing" makes me happy and gives me some extra energy and a sense of accomplishment. It is like you see your child growing up in a rapid pace; you give a birth, dedicate your time and effort, give a lot of love, and see them grow.
According to Wallace Wattles, his methods work for people whose desire for riches is strong enough to overcome mental laziness and the love of ease. I hope I am one of them.
