"There is No Place to Get To" ???

What’s the big goal? Why that goal? Why that timeline? Be honest—are you chasing it so you can finally say, “FU, I made it”? ??

If this resonates, it’s time to pause and reflect. Dan Martell’s powerful theory, “There is no place to get to,” reminds us that we’re often running on an endless hamster wheel, chasing something that might not even matter to us in the long run.

The Rules We Make Up ??

We all do it:

• We turn goals into rigid rules.
• We punish ourselves when we don’t hit these self-imposed milestones.
• And when we do reach them? We immediately set another, because we feel lost without something to chase.

The problem is, these arbitrary rules keep us stuck in a cycle of seeking external validation: ?? “I’ll be worthy when I make more money.” ?? “I’ll feel successful when I hit this milestone.” ?? “I’ll finally celebrate when I get recognized.”

Here’s the truth: Your self-worth isn’t tied to external success. It’s not tied to money. It’s not tied to recognition. It’s not tied to anything outside of you.

The Permission You’ve Been Waiting For ??

You don’t need to wait.

• Celebrate the wins you’ve already achieved.
• Feel successful today.
• Give yourself permission to stop chasing and start enjoying.

Success is just a mindset—a shift in how you see yourself and your life. You get to decide that you’re already enough. You can feel fulfilled right now, without the next milestone or another “FU moment” to prove yourself.

Design the Life You Want to Live ??

Instead of chasing a future you hope will bring happiness, ask yourself: ?? What kind of life do I want to live today? ?? How can I enjoy the journey and fall in love with the work I get to do every day?

It’s not about reaching a destination—it’s about creating a life where you’re genuinely excited to wake up each morning. It’s about realizing you already have everything you need to feel successful.

The Big Takeaway ??

When you let go of arbitrary rules and external validation, you free yourself to focus on what really matters: living a life of joy, purpose, and fulfillment now.

So, I’ll leave you with this question: ?? What are you waiting for?
