When "Good Enough" No Longer Feels Enough: What to Do Next

When "Good Enough" No Longer Feels Enough: What to Do Next

You know that moment when everything feels like it’s going great—you're hitting your goals, living the life, and then, BAM! Life throws you a curveball. Whether it’s a sudden illness, a divorce, or the loss of a loved one, it shakes you to the core. You thought your life was solid, your confidence unshakable, because, hey, you were successful.

But now? The drive, the determination—it’s all gone. Those big dreams of fancy houses, shiny cars, and impressive reputations? They’ve lost their sparkle. You feel like you’re adrift, vulnerable in ways you’ve never felt before. And it’s terrifying. But here's the twist: it's also an opportunity. Those cracks in your protective armor? That’s where the light gets in.

These life-jarring events can be wake-up calls. If you can resist the urge to let the old, striving, materialistic parts of yourself take over again, you have a chance to explore what's truly inside you. This is your moment to tap into your authentic self—that essence of calm, clarity, compassion, and connectedness. Listen to those parts of you that have been overshadowed for so long.

As you embrace the simple pleasures—enjoying nature, reading, engaging in creative activities, playing with friends, deepening intimacy with your partner or kids, and being of service to others—you start to realize what truly matters. You decide to change your life, making room for your true self and these newly discovered parts of you.

3 tips to navigate that journey with more ease:

  1. Embrace Vulnerability: When life shakes you up, it’s okay to feel vulnerable. It’s in these moments that we often find the deepest truths about ourselves.
  2. Discover Your True Self: Let go of the old, materialistic goals. Instead, explore what brings you genuine joy and fulfillment. Your authentic self is waiting to be uncovered.
  3. Cherish the Simple Pleasures: Happiness often lies in the simple things—nature, creativity, connection. Make space for these in your life and watch how everything changes for the better.

Stay true, and keep shining your light, my friend. You’ve got this.
