Feeling unfulfilled after achieving a goal is common. We may mistake short-term satisfaction for a deeper purpose.
Fulfillment comes from within, not from external achievements.
We often don't take the time to figure out what truly motivates us before pursuing a goal.
Fear of failure and societal pressures can prevent us from pivoting when we realize a path isn't right for us.
Productivity for productivity's sake is a recipe for burnout. We need to be chasing purpose, not just checking things off a list.
Like drinking too much water, excessive productivity can be counterproductive, leaving us drained and unsatisfied.
The key to a fulfilling life is to live with intention and purpose.
Ask yourself "why" behind everything you do to ensure it aligns with your deeper goals.
Don't be afraid to release tasks or projects that don't align with your purpose.
