hi, i was wondering if anyone can relate with this, its more of a feeling
when you feel like you dont do enough with your time, and everything is just a waste of time, you feel unfulfilled,
you haven’t been productive enough or you feel like you are letting yourself down, its more personal for me but i guess it could include letting others down as well.
i try my best but its never good enough, do you know what i mean?
i just wish i was content with what i do, i have little victories here and there but i never win lol
Self satisfaction and contentment is hard fought for feeling. That searching and craving for things and achievement can be never ending.
I know i mention it a lot, but meditation can lead to self satsifaction through self introspection. Taking time to just stop and think, not even to empty the mind but just to stop, close your eyes for 20 minutes and let the thoughts come and go and then return to the breath can do miraculous things for your well being,
This panic to achieve can lessen. Just to be. To find peace. It is achieveable. Buddhism is based on these precepts, but even so, just breathe and be in the moment without it if you can.
In a few years my youngest kids will both be adults and as they move out I will have no purpose. I have no idea what I will do
Well I do but I shouldn’t put it on here.
for me its a case of trying to reach your full potential as a human being, it has to be attainable goals, i think my goals atm are unattainable like i’ve set the bar too high but you know that saying in boxing when you throw a punch, don’t aim for the face, try and go further.
