It is a widely held belief that having a clear direction is necessary to achieve success. However, I have come to realize that this belief is not always valid. Personally, I have chosen to live a life without rigid goals. While I occasionally contemplate pursuing a goal, I have learned to let go of it. Interestingly, living goal-free has never been a deliberate objective of mine. It is something I have discovered and come to find immense joy in. This approach aligns perfectly with the lifestyle I have cultivated around my passion and has proven to be incredibly liberating.

I had been establishing objectives for myself throughout the year, breaking them down into smaller goals for each month and week. I carefully outlined the necessary steps to be taken on a weekly and daily basis, striving to prioritize my tasks accordingly. Unfortunately, this systematic approach seldom yielded the desired outcome, as I often found it challenging to remain motivated while working on individual action steps and keeping the ultimate goal in mind. Frankly, achieving goals is an arduous endeavor, often leaving me unable to attain a perfect 100% success rate. As a result, I regularly reassess my goals, readjust them, and formulate a fresh set of sub-goals and action plans. Despite having a clear sense of direction from the outset, I frequently fell short of reaching my desired destination. While there were instances where I triumphed and experienced an overwhelming sense of fulfillment, more often than not, I blamed myself for falling short of success.
