I realized quite some time ago that I can't continue fighting the fullness of my life, but that it would be futile because I'm an ambitious individual and I will always gravitate to fullness.
Fulfillment is a much more holistic and abstract consideration. It's something that we own deep within ourselves. Fulfillment has real meaning. It's not always obvious or prominent, but when we are conscious of (the feeling of) fulfillment, it's an incredible experience.
If all constraints and considerations were to be removed, of what would you want more?
I know what makes me happy and I mostly know how to optimize for that happens too. Part of that optimization is not to fall into the Joneses' trap.
