For a long time, I directed my focus on racking up achievement not fulfillment in life. I thought if I just set goals, worked hard and accomplished some extraordinary things, I would feel full. However, what I discovered to the contrary is I still felt a void. Amazing achievements do not in and of themselves yield a sense of purpose and meaning and are absolutely no guarantee of personal fulfillment. Granted, I experienced periods of delight but the sensation was short-lived. If you truly believe and desire fulfillment, start the process of discovering what that experience is for you (I did).
