You don't think you're enough and no amount of success will heal that belief. See, you feel worthy when you achieve, so you chase more success. But you'll never reach the end of achievement. There is no end. It's just like money. Achievement never ends. We're all brainwashed from childhood and it goes from gold stars to good grades to college to graduation to six figures. See, if your self worth is tied to your success, you are building a house that's built on sand. And it doesn't matter how many accolades you'll collect, you'll never feel like you are enough. Bob Marley said, money is just numbers and numbers never end. If it takes money and success for you to be happy, then your search for happiness will never end.
