And I realized I was like, I am not going to ever change.

Like this is my life.

And if not this catalyzing a change, then like this is just the life I'm going to have.

And as long as I thought that that was the highest goal, I didn't know how to stop going for that.

Like I didn't know how to adjust myself.

It felt like a defeat.

So there is an opportunity, there is a challenge, there is a project that needs to be done, there is a goal that you or someone on your team or someone in your family has, and therefore, you try to go get that thing.

Yeah, okay.

It felt like if, as long as that is what the goal is,

and you are readjusting yourself, what you're readjusting yourself to is a lesser goal or just resigning yourself that you are not a person who can any longer achieve the goals.

Got it.
