When Will Enough Be Enough?

Hey, welcome back to

your Daily Mindfulness.

In today's session, we're going to

talk about when will enough be enough.

So take a moment to think

about some of the things you're

working toward in your life.

The things you're applying, a lot

of effort toward, or the things that

you want to grow or make better.

This might include your financial

wellbeing, a sense of freedom you want

to have with your time, or even just

an idea of becoming a better version of

yourself and once you get there, then

I'll have that thing I'm looking for.

Now, all of this is important,

very important to have goals

and things we're working toward.

Simultaneously it may serve us to

periodically ask when will it be enough,

whatever it is I'm working toward?

And how will I know?

When will it be enough?

And how will I know?

For me personally, I find it very easy to

get caught on the treadmill of striving.

And it's not uncommon to lose sight

of why I'm working toward what I'm

working toward in the first place.

What is the end point?

Is it a feeling?

Is it a certain amount

of getting something?

Is it a certain amount of material things?

And I'm curious if that

resonates with you as well.

We're just so caught up in trying to get

somewhere that maybe we determined a while

ago was important, that we've actually

forgot what we're working toward and how

will we even know once we've gotten there.

And without an understanding of

knowing what we're working toward

and what it will feel like, it can

be hard to know if we've gotten it

when we think we have, or if we have.

So there's no right answer to this.

And it's not to suggest that

we stop applying effort toward

our goals and our visions.

But it's just a useful question to

bring into the pursuit of things

and life, to notice if we're just on

the cycle of striving out of habit

or is it more intentional and how

can we make it more intentional.

What does the end point look like?

When will enough be enough and

how will I know I've gotten

what it is I'm trying to get?

We'll explore some more

of this in the meditation.

As always, thanks for your practice.

Talk to you shortly and take care.
