There's a difference between rental vs ownership mindset.

Rental: Transactional, short-term, maintenance.

Ownership: Investment, long-term, transcendence.

Humans can be kicked into a rental mindset by little things.

For example, if the desk you sit at in the office is reset to a default, neutral state every night, you'll be in more of a rental mindset, not an ownership mindset in that context.
