57. What Will Fill Your Cup
Manage episode 478275070 series 3589518
What fills your cup—success, admiration, wealth? Many of us chase these things, only to find our fulfillment draining away, like a cup with hidden holes.
This episode explores the difference between fleeting happiness and lasting contentment. True satisfaction doesn’t come from achievement alone, but from living in alignment with our values. Even great success can feel hollow if it doesn’t reflect what truly matters to us.
From Leo Tolstoy’s turn toward simplicity to Hiroo Onoda’s decades-long commitment, we uncover how real fulfillment often comes from self-denial, not self-indulgence. The question isn’t what you want, but what you’re willing to stand for.
