There has been nothing more awkward in my life than achieving all of my lifelong goals. It is a rather wonderful problem to have, but still a problem. I'm not going to brag about the details, but in practice I set out to achieve some difficult goals as a teenager, and dedicated my life to them. It worked. I have everything I wanted. Now what? I've spent the last few years unsure of what to do with the rest of my life, and it is like being a teenager again as I flirt with new narratives. I'm only now just starting to settle into what I see as a "decade long effort" on a new set of goals.
