Glory lies in the attempt to reach one's goal and not in reaching it. Mahatma Gandhi

What happens after you’re a success?

After you’ve climbed the highest mountain?

After you’ve won the championship?

After you’ve made all the money you desired?

After you received all the accolades?

What do you do next?

It’s not uncommon to hear ‘successful’ people speak about being depressed or unfulfilled even though they’ve reached specific goals in their life.

They thought reaching the goal would fill a void or perhaps make them feel complete.

But it didn’t.

So while you’re pursuing your goals, realize that you shouldn’t use your goal to fill a hole in yourself. Because if that’s your view, then essentially, you’re saying that without the external goal, you are incomplete. And that’s where the feelings of being unfulfilled come from.

Realize that you are already complete, and learn to pursue your goals for the sheer pleasure of the pursuit.
