Verse 3.111.45

संकल्पमात्रविभवेन कृतात्यनर्थं संकल्पमात्रविभवेन सुसाधितार्थम् ।
संतोषमात्रविभवेन मनो विजित्य नित्योदितेन जयमेहि निरीप्सितेन ॥ ४५ ॥

saṃkalpamātravibhavena kṛtātyanarthaṃ saṃkalpamātravibhavena susādhitārtham |
saṃtoṣamātravibhavena mano vijitya nityoditena jayamehi nirīpsitena || 45 ||

Opulence in expectancy, is full of anxiety to the mind, and the expected wealth when gained is no less troublesome to it; but the treasure of contentment is fraught with lasting peace of mind, therefore be victorious over your greedy mind by abandonment of all your desires.
