You’ve achieved your goal.
It has finally come to fruition.
It took a lot of hard work.
So why doesn’t it feel better?
Why is the accomplishment not meaningful?
Maybe it was something your did for someone else.
Worse…it was someone else’s goal.
Or it was an old goal that is now no longer relevant.
Perhaps it was just the wrong goal.
Perhaps the ladder was against the wrong wall.
“People may spend their whole lives climbing the ladder of success only to find, once they reach the top, that the ladder is leaning against the wrong wall.” – Thomas Merton
