More sometimes gets a bad rap. And rightly so.
I mean, we’ve all been there, right?
We spend all sorts of time, money, and energy chasing more of something with the hopes that it will make us feel happier and more fulfilled, only to find that it didn’t, and now we feel even worse than when we started the chase in the first place.
If we’re not conscious of what we really want from life, we can make the mistake of thinking, “Well, maybe if I just chase harder, I’ll find that happiness and joy I’m looking for!”
Of course, this kind of thinking can head us down the road that leads right to the big “B”…B.U.R.N.O.U.T.
And, nobody wants that.
That’s why it’s so important to remind ourselves that it’s not the qwest for more that’s the problem, it’s what we define as the more that is really critical.
Because, let’s face it, the desire for more, including more growth and expansion is the nature of everything in the Universe, including the human experience.
The problem is, what more are we chasing?
Is it more things?
More titles?
More money? (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing)
More status?
More likes? 🙂
Or, is it…
More satisfaction?
More service?
More fulfillment?
More rich experiences?
More connection with others?
More appreciation?
More growth?
It’s all about choosing wisely what the more is that we’re chasing.
So, if you aren’t finding the happiness and fulfillment you’re looking for, maybe it’s time you reassess what exactly is is you’re chasing?
You might find that a pivot is in order.
