Some of what you have right now is exactly what younger you was hoping for. Notice it before you upgrade the goal.

Goals get replaced the instant they are met, so the thing you wanted badly two years ago is now just the furniture of your life. Nothing feels like an achievement once it has become normal. A fair amount of what you are living inside was somebody’s hope, and that somebody was you.

Before you raise the target again, name one thing you already have that you used to want. Sit with it for a few minutes instead of immediately asking what comes next.
