Achieving More Isn't Always The Answer 🤷‍♀️

Do you ever feel that that's why you were picking up other things was just to basically like, hey, as long as I'm busy, I don't have to sit within my own thoughts and digest.

This 100%, because that's the easy way out. And that the book Relentless talks about. That is when you achieve something, you get this dopamine hit, and it doesn't last long. And usually you're alone, and you're in your car, you're doing whatever, and you're like, oh, my God, I did it. It feels so good. I made it to this number, or I closed this deal, or I. Whatever. Right. And then it's pretty much immediately followed by severe anxiety and depression because you're like, now what?

Have to do it again.

Yeah.

And then bigger.

Yeah. And you're still. You don't feel fulfilled. That fulfillment fades so fast. It's just a hit.

Yeah.

And then you got to get another hit. And the easy thing is to just do what I freaking did and be like, okay, well, now I hit this goal. My next goal is I'm just going to be a billionaire. That'll. That'll set me for life. And then someone asked me, why do you want to be a billionaire? I'm like, I don't know. I said something like, well, the more money I have, the more impact I can have. And. And he goes, that can be true. But that's not necessarily true, because this isn't an impact from you being a billionaire. This is an impact that you can have that's free and that's not necessarily directly correlated. And I was like, well, that's interesting.

Yeah.

Like I'm. That was just my ego feeling an answer for me to continue to create goals, to. To keep me living disconnected and not present.
