The Success Trap: Why the Goalpost Keeps Moving
A few years ago, I thought success meant hitting big goals — closing more deals, making more money, buying that first property. But once I got there, it didn’t feel like “arrival". I realized the finish line keeps moving…and maybe it was never real in the first place.
In this episode, I unpack what that realization taught me, and why so many of us in our 20s and 30s get stuck chasing the next milestone without ever feeling satisfied. You’ll hear:
- The moment I realized success isn’t a single destination
- Why constant achievement can actually create more stress
- How to redefine your scoreboard (and what truly counts)
- The trap of comparison and how to break out of it
- A few questions that’ll help you figure out what you’re really chasing
And to wrap things up, I've got another "content rec of the week" for you to check out!
If you’ve ever hit a goal and immediately asked, “What’s next?”…this episode is for you.
