    Greed is what makes one do things in totally selfish and egoistic way, without looking that what happens to others or nature. as the quote says here, the world outside is just an external manifestation of our mind. As you think, things will go in same direction.
    It is also said that, “in this world, there is enough for everyone’s need but not for a single man’s greed.”
    other side of the coin will be, feeling of gratitude and satisfaction. if we nurture these values, you will feel inner peace of mind and the world will be really a better place to live in.
