The myth of arrival, the arrival fallacy.... whatever we call it, it can zap your ability to engage with the current moment. It's the idea that only once you get to a certain place in your life: meeting a specific goal, achieving a certain accomplishment, or just getting to a certain point in time, that only then will your real life begin.

Today we explore this fallacy in detail-- and discuss how it gets in our way. Best of all, we'll learn how to counteract it. Join us!
