But if I stop, I'm scared.

But if I keep doing it, I feel like crap.

Another is restlessness or inability to focus.

So a lot of people will now come to me and say, I don't know what happened to me.

I used to love reading and I can't read a book anymore.

I'm reaching for my phone every two minutes.

I don't have the attention span.

And then I think one other one that's really important to mention is feelings of not being enough.

in a way that isn't healthy and motivating, but in a way that is really self-judgmental.

So it's one thing to say, hey, I'm at point A and I wanna expand and get to point B because I'm curious and I'm gonna grow.

That's wonderful.

It's another thing to say that I'm at point A and I won't feel like I have internal inherent worth until I get to point B.

And that is, by definition, the wrong way to strive.

And we often end up less happy than more, even if we get to that place.

So what happens when you don't accomplish a goal?

So... And then I hope this isn't like turning into like a personal coaching session.

But then how do you define success?

How do you define success?

All right, done.

I'm interjecting.
