Lately I've been wondering if anyone else feels this way.

I keep telling myself that I'll be happier or more relaxed once I get through the next thing a new job, finishing a project, having more money, getting into a better routine, or reaching some personal goal.

Then I get there, and my brain immediately finds the next milestone to focus on.

>It's like I'm always living for a future version of my life instead of appreciating the one I'm already in.

I'm trying to figure out whether this is just part of being an adult or if it's something I need to work on.

Has anyone else experienced this? If you did, what helped you stop feeling like life was always just around the corner?

Paying bills, replying to messages, remembering birthdays, booking appointments... I used to think adults had everything figured out. Now it feels like everyone is just trying not to forget the next thing on their list.
