Do you feel Accomplished in Life?
What does that actually mean?
I saw this question the other day: “Do you feel accomplished in life?” While I’m not a Stephen King, I’m happy being able to write. So yes, I guess I feel accomplished.
I think with most other people, whether they feel accomplished, or not would largely depend on what their situations are. There could be a number of caveats that come with trying, as well.
In one extreme, to an Olympian athlete, after an entire lifetime of intense training, winning a medal might be their ultimate accomplishment.
In another extreme, to a homeless man, feeling accomplished might mean the difference between living and dying, just by finding a shelter to sleep in on a frigid winter night.
To a baby learning to walk, feeling accomplished might mean finally making it across the room from Mommy into Daddy’s waiting arms. A caveat might be the family dog who comes running up to lick the baby’s cheek halfway across the room.
To a five year-old, feeling accomplished might mean finally tying his shoes all by himself with no help from Mommy or Daddy.
Over my life, I’m somewhere in the middle. Feeling accomplished comes from setting a few moderate, but important (to me) goals and working to achieve them, no matter how long it takes —when I’m satisfied, I set a few more.
Feeling accomplished is different depending on who you ask and what they’ve been working toward. It also refers to the many different successes a person has throughout their life.

💖 Life itself is a great achievement! We come out of the mother womb through facing obstacles and hurdles into this universe.
