Guide 2 the Grind

The Disappointment of Achievement w/Chris Larsen


Listen Later

Have you ever set a massive goal, achieved it, and then realized it wasn't what you thought it would be?



Astronauts, Olympic Athletes, and business owners alike know the disappointment that can come with the realization of a dream. 



So what do you do about it?



It’s not as simple as just setting bigger goals. You need to have a vision. Not just any vision, but one that’s going to last for the rest of your life. 


Proverbs reads, “Where there is no vision, the people perish


You see, the challenge that all achievers face is, after a goal is reached, there’s nothing to look forward to. 


Here’s a smaller example that pretty much everyone can relate to. When you’re looking forward to a vacation, everything is so exciting. You spend days, if not weeks planning your retreat. As the date draws nearer, you get steadily more excited. Until finally that last day before you leave, your excitement hits a peak. 



That excitement lasts a day or two, but then you start to count the days until vacation is over, trying to make the most of every one. Then, inevitably the vacation ends, you come back home, and that empty feeling comes over you. That feeling of having nothing to look forward to. 



That’s the same feeling that all achievers have had to contend with at one time or another. 



Today on the “Investment Property Income” podcast Chris Larsen, author of “Next Level Income” joins us, and shares his experience in the disappointment of achievement, and what he did to create a long term vision for his life. 



This conversation took a very deep, and meaningful turn from where it started. I know you’ll want to listen.
