Think of life as a cup. Everyday refill it with love of what you have and the feelings of having what you want. If you feel bad, then remember your cup is empty. You can't fill a cup by raging war against the emptiness of a cup. Remind yourself to fill your cup and overflow by creating your very own overflowing cup fountain.

Find a cool looking tall thick plastic cup.
Purchase an inexpensive misting fountain and fill it up with water. (Can find them sometimes at dollar stores)
Drill a hole big enough for a pipe through the top base cap of the fountain using a drill with a glass drill bit. (Be sure to have a spray bottle of water and spray water while drilling the hole through glass)
Drill the same size of a hole through the bottom of the plastic cup.
Take faucet and hot glue hard clear pipe onto the spout opening. (If you cannot find hard clear pipe, buy candy that is packaged in clear tubes)
Cut clear rubber hose slightly longer than the hard clear pipe.
Feed rubber clear hose through the bottom of the fountain base and out through the plastic cup.
Slip hard plastic pipe and faucet over clear rubber hose and inside the cup.
Fill cup with plastic crystals all around the hard plastic pipe until the pipe and faucet is stabilized and standing upward.
Submerge garden pump under fountain base stand and connect clear rubber hose to the pump.
Watch me make this here or follow instructions below.
Set cup/fountain base on the white base stand holder. Plug in the pump and misting fountain. Now you can always allow your cup continuously overfloweth!
