They are not to be found in suits, cars, occasional show-off of wealth or power.
They can only be achieved from your daily activity. What you do on a daily basis, where you spend you time, what kind of people you hang around, how do you spend each and every moment of your life.
Most people have this erroneous notion that life is about spikes of emotions; No its about persistent state of mind and action.
Meaning is more important than occasional high of dopamine that you would derive from external sources- be it power, be it money, be it status, be it sex, be it food, be it any external thing.
I know in my bones that I feel most satisfied when I have been doing something that has meaning to my existence. I know doing something of that sort has a more lasting impact on my satisfaction threshold.
Its either me who is wrong, cause I see no meaning in these emotionally spiked moments; or most of the people I have ever met have been wrong about what is meaningful in life and what delivers lasting satisfaction and happiness.
I think I am correct. Only time will tell.
I think I had made the right choice when I decide to leave everything to find what makes my life most meaningful.
It was not easy. It took many years to know the fact. I hate to use the word - luck, as I do not believe in it. But I could say in terms of lay men language that I think I am one of the most lucky people in the history of humankind.
I gave time to myself for finding what I want in life and I think I have found an answer for the question.
Now I know in which direction I am heading, so I could be sure and move in that direction in full throttle.
