Your Soul Doesn’t Give a Sh!t About Your Job Title

Your soul doesn’t give a sh!t about your job title, car, clothes, watches, or brokerage statement.

But your ego does. It plays a mean little trick on you,

It’s the “When I…Then I…” trap.

When I get that promotion, then I’ll be someone.

When I buy that new car, then I’ll impress people.

When I have this much money, then I’ll be happy.

How does that work out for you? I know it didn’t work out for me.

Sure, these things feel great at the moment.

It’s a quick high.

There’s only one problem with quick highs, they fade quickly.

What happens when the moment is over? When the promotion comes with more responsibility? When the car is no longer new? When X amount of dollars is no longer enough?

You’ll find yourself empty and jonesing to feel the way you once felt.

So it’s onto the next shiny object, the endless pursuit of meaning through materialism, status, and power.

If you don’t know you’re enough, no amount of things, status, or power will make you feel enough.
