Then, What?

You have set a goal for yourself.

You’re focused on achieving it.

Great.

Let’s say you do it.

Then, what?

What does the achievement of that goal enable? Why does it matter?

If it’s merely a goal with no further purpose, eventually it may feel empty or not that a big a deal.

All the more reason to just enjoy the journey to the goal, perhaps even more than attaining the goal itself.
