What is the meaning of life? This is an age-old question and is very much related to overall happiness and feeling fulfilled in life. For some people it is about success at work. For others it is about relationships and friendships. In this context, people often set goals. Here, it is important to realize that there is a trap to avoid.
Have you ever had the experience of pursuing a goal with tenacity, and after working really hard, you finally have it, whatever it is? What happens then? Often, it can actually be a let-down. Right? Does that resonate? And so then, what now? Where do we go from there? And therein lies the answer.
A lot of times it is about the journey, the pursuit of a goal, not necessarily the goal itself. For example, say you like to run. Is it more meaningful to make a certain time, or more meaningful to enjoy the running itself and to find meaning in that?
