Personal fulfillment.

December 16, 2021 3:41pm CST
It is exactly 26 minutes to Midnight and I can't help but think what personal fulfillment Is and what people think is personal fulfillment and what the derive personal fulfillment from. I tend to think that personal fulfillment comes when you are at peace with the people around you as well as leave within yourself. This may happen after accomplishing the goals you had set or just by helping someone out of a difficult situation. However, doesn't setting goals take people towards the road of self-destruction? I mean out high expectations are responsible for the depression we might feel if we fail to accomplish our set goals. Is setting goals worth it ? Is beating ourselves for failed goals worth it ? Or maybe we simply need to find a balance and accept that you don't always get what you want ? Well, it depends on how you choose to see life. Atleast I think so.

I think personnel fulfilment is when you are happy with your self. It's when you are the best version of yourself. It's also when what you thing is in total harmony with what you say and what you do.. kind of hard to achieve, but totally worth working on.

My belief is based on a former National Football League coach named George Halas who is on Brainy Quote with the saying "No one who ever gave his best ever regretted it." If I do not make my goals in surveys, I can say I gave it my best and try again next time.

I guess my take on this will be in life, one has to always keep going and never give up. If we do things sincerely, passionately and with dedication, then the success derived from those are sweet rewards. But that does not mean failing in something means we are doomed forever. One only fail when they stop trying.. so if it's for the better good, keep pushing and grinding but not expecting too much out of it.

the most important thing, all your identity, your happiness, your satisfaction, your sadness, everything is already inside of you, it's just a matter of finding out who we really are.

many ambitions of us in this life for the gratification of personal activities. sometimes we can only be happy because we can also make other people happy, like there is a sense of satisfaction in the heart to be better. satisfaction when we see the smiles of the people we help, there is a glimmer of hope and happiness

I have many unfulfilled dreams no matter how I tried, I failed. I firmly agree that everything happens for a reason.

Personal fulfilment is often something that takes you further away from your real self, if you self-aggrandize with your mind, instead of following the purpose inbuilt into your heart by God. The only real fulfilment is found in filling your real spot in the world as your real self, with your real self.
