What exactly is success? For me it is to be found not in applause, but in the satisfaction of feeling that one is realizing one's ideal. Anna Pavlova

At what point do we say, "Ahhh. Thank you. I have a home, and a job, and a strong family. This is good. This is enough."? Is it spoiled, ungrateful, and foolish to want more? Is it misguided to want my ideal? Is it shortsighted to want the fulfilling career and the house in a great neighborhood in addition to all the other stuff? Does that kind of thinking prevent appreciation in the moment, in all that we do have? Maybe yes. The conflict lies in figuring out where ambition ends and fulfillment begins. We want to strive, learn, and grow always, but at the same time we want to savor the moment and count our blessings. How does one know when to wander off her path or when to simply stop and take delight in the path already created?
