Is my view on acquiring fulfillment in life correct?

3 posts in this topic

Peace/Fulfillment are not acquired through getting anything, this is the realisation you need to detach yourself from material things.

Peace/fulfillment is GENERATED through wisely selected repeated behaviours.

Health comes from repeated behaviour - Eating healthy, sleep pattern, exercise.

Good mental health comes from repeated behaviour - Meditation/Mindfulness, therapy, journaling, introspection etc etc 

Awareness is maintained through repeated habits/behaviours - Avoiding distractions, meditation, hiking, mindfulness etc.

Everything that goes into feeling better is not primarily about what you HAVE, but what you DO.

Fulfillment is GENERATED not acquired through having anything, besides of course meeting your basic needs/requirements.

Peace is about what you can let go of and what you can be aware of. What you do may help you get there but not necessarily.

some things you do can be a distraction, more or less. For most people, intense Hatha yoga would not be a great investment of their time, if they were trying to become enlightened

Fullfilment is a certain state.

That state can be caused by detachment from material pleasures. But it can also be caused by attachment to material pleasures.

That state can be caused by what you have. It can also be caused by what you do. It can also be caused by what you are.

Reality is relative. People and situations are different. What works for one might not work for another. There are no absolutes.
