Proud But Never Satisfied

I’ve learned that success isn’t a destination—it’s a journey. There was a time when achieving something felt like a big win, but now it feels more like a stepping stone or mandatory, just one more thing to push through on the way to something greater.

I’m proud of how far I’ve come, but I’ve realized that I’m never fully satisfied. I always want more. I want to work harder, optimize my processes, and keep leveling up, but without burning out or over optimize. The challenge is balancing that hunger for progress with the need to stay grounded.

How do you all feel about this—striving for more without letting it consume you?
