When is fun boring?
Seth Godin wrote today about how people without goals can have more fun now and worry less. But those who have goals accomplish more. They lead. I would also suggest that the fun of now has diminishing returns. Hedonism is only enjoyable for so long before the shallowness gets to you.
Victor Frankl’s book Man’s Search For Meaning is by far the best source I know for understanding how important it is to have personal and/or professional goals. Even though goals can often lead to work and accountability and stress and frustration, there is no deeper fun than eagerly striving toward something important.
