I had forgotten in 2023 that goals or any external gains are only temporary and not what is important to be happy. So I tried to reach a goal that I thought was causing me huge pain for not having reached it, but I was unable to because of many hindrances that honestly are not important to get into.

Instead, I've understood again that you first have to be completely content and happy with everything you have now, and once that is achieved, everything becomes easy and pleasant again.

Now I will pursue my goals in whatever way happens naturally, letting hindrances hinder me, making no progress sometimes, or maybe I do, who knows. It doesn't really matter, since I'm already content.
