Blissful Dissatisfaction

This term may seem to completely contradict itself, so let me explain. There are two sets of 53

flawed thinking I see so many struggle with. The first is intentionally delaying happiness until a specific goal is achieved. “I’ll be happy when—I have this house, this car, this relationship, etc.”

This delays a person’s ability to be happy for a future destination and time. The problem with that thinking is that you still must bring you to that destination! If you have never learned to be happy where you are now, you are likely going to remain unhappy wherever you go, no matter what you achieve. It is possible to be happy on the journey to your goals. Learning to be happy in your current situation is a prerequisite to a fulfilling life.

The other flawed thinking is, “If I let myself enjoy this, I’ll lose my drive.” Many achievers think that if they allow themselves to be happy, it opens the door for potentially slowing down.

Maybe even a total loss of ambition. What if they begin to settle for less than their goal? They believe that happiness will cause them to lose their edge.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

#MAXOUT YOUR LIFE

People confuse happiness and satisfaction.

They are totally different and independent states.

You can be both blissful and dissatisfied simulta-neously. In fact, the art of navigating these two states is a key to success and fulfillment.

Have you ever been really hungry and then bitten into a delicious meal, a meal that tasted so good that you literally feel blissful? When you felt that happiness, did the taste of that meal end your hunger? Did you feel like you wanted to stop right there? Or did it make you want even more? You weren’t satisfied with just a taste—you were even hungrier for the next bite and wanted to finish it all! This is the same in every endeavor in life. Do not buy into the false belief that you need to delay your happiness until a future destination and time.

Do not falsely believe you will lose your hunger if you allow joy, peace, and bliss into your life now!

The key to a fulfilling life is being happy while still desiring the next level. That is how to truly

#MaxOut your life. Be blissfully dissatisfied.
