I bet when you first got what you wanted you were pleased. But did you really goal set to have that for the rest of your life unchanged?
So now as you ask, "What did I really want?", instead of just coming up with another answer of "Back to an apartment", how about you ask, "And when I get that apartment, what after that?"
If something leads you further to where you want to go, or even helps you clarify better what you are doing with your life, then you can be disappointed in the moment, but have the bigger sense of still achieving.
So that is elaborating more. But let me know what you make of this before I go any further. I'm too used to doing this 1-on-1 where I can get immediate feedback that let's me know when I'm waffling off topic. :-) |
I see what you mean now, and your follow up question is good. I don't know what my next step would be once in an apartment in a big city...I could find myself in the same place, I guess I just sort of expect things to happen.
Right now I just want to live courageously and try anything. I have this feeling of "anything would be better now, just a change".
That feeling could be off-topic, but somehow, I think it is related. It is like I have stagnated in success or something.
