Never Satisfied

At day's end I'm rarely satisfied with my accomplishments because I always want to do more and don't move to do it. With so many things on the list it's easy to get burned out by the small things along the way. Then there are many other thoughts that weigh the mind. It's hard to decide what to focus on.

Hi Morgan,
It may be wise to take some time out to relax. Do you have any free days during the week? Perhaps spend a day treating yourself... Here are some ideas:
Read a good book, go for a walk, watch a movie, write a diary, paint something or create something, visit some place you may find interesting like a museum or your place of worship if you're religious, take a nap, take a warm bath, visit someone special, Skype call with someone special to you - perhaps you could confide in them?
Hope you're soon feeling more content.
Take care of yourself!

I did some of those, apparently it wasn't enough to make me feel better. So I cut my hair. I can't confide in anyone because I'm lacking the friends that would listen.

@totobasso I do, but it's not the same as people you can have a long conversation about topics that would be forbidden on this site.

I'm starting to understand why super villians are created. It's not that they are bad people, it's because life never improves no matter what they do so they decide to take it out on the world. It doesn't make them feel much better, but it's something to do. :P

It's true. Lately I've been making satisfactory choices this past week. I'm not satisfied in the long run, but I'm better than unsatisfied.

I do not look at what I have done and what I have not. I look forward to the next day and life goes on.

Yes, but if the next day comes and nothing new happens, I would be even more depressed. I can't just look at it that way. Some people need goals, objectives, and missions to move through life.

@allknowing It is, and I need some direction to do so. At least the physical world. My mental world is constantly changing.

After I wrote this I jumped onto the dating platforms and messaged many people one after another, and eventually two of them replied. I am certain I will never hear from any of the others, but at least 2 were willing to chat.
I felt more accomplished afterward.

I don't set goals like that. You are setting yourself up for disappointment when you set goals.
