Is there anything to achieve?

[sleep]

What is there to achieve, really? Isn't everything already fine as it is currently?

[BlackMaze]

No it's not... Of course accepting what is is very important but why not make things better? What if you are sick and want to be healthy? Shouldn't you work on your health? 

What if your life sucks? Isn't it wise to take action to make it better? 

If you just want to be famous or become a billioner for example just to boost your ego then no that is not necessary you just fool yourself that this is what you want. Accepting what is but also enjoy being a creator rather than an achiever is a better mindset.

@sleep Good question, I'm still wondering. I could get intellectual about it with past insights but none of those are true for me

Removed the word "now" from the end of the sentence since that word is made redundant by already saying "are". Otherwise it's playing useless games with myself

For me it is obvious: I want to achieve the emptiness in my mind, because that is how the beauty and wonder of life is manifested. It is something purely practical, I don't understand why it is so difficult, but it is

It is fine, including achievement .

Of course, there is nothing you have to achieve. There is nothing you have to do at all. That's what free will means.

But the funny thing about free will is that it's not all it's cracked up to be.

You are free to do whatever you want, including nothing. But there will be different outcomes depending on your choices. And some of those outcomes you're going to want more than others.

Yes, Happiness is the only thing you MUST achieve. If you don't, you will have to come back in another life and try again, until you get IT.

Completely agree

Everything is fine, yes, so what do you want to experience? Dream big

[WaveInTheOcean]

You decide.

Absolute freedom.

it seems to me that any work that we "need" to do only comes to appear necessary because of illusions and the stories we tell ourselves, it feels closer to reality to me that there's nothing really to be done when we drop all those stories

Or maybe that’s an eleborate story spun by the ego to avoid work?? Could be

Nah but I get you!!!

You could be right, honestly I don't know lol. I'll still keep meditating and doing spiritual work though, just sharing my thoughts i guess.

You cannot achieve but you can Discover.
