Episode notes

When you set a goal, you intend to go from Point A to Point B. But why is it that Point B can bring so much unhappiness, or even if there is happiness, only a glimpse of it? Getting to Point B seems like an "All or Nothing" to some people. It stops us from seeing all the other points that we achieved along the way. And sometimes we fail to recognize that maybe Point B wasn't really what you wanted after all... Even when we don't get to Point B, we accomplish goals we never expected to accomplish, but needed to experience in order to get somewhere else. And that's a new way that I've been interpreting this Point B problem. You shouldn't feel disappointed or discouraged that Point B was never reached, but instead acknowledge all the other points you went through along the way.
