What would happen if you realized one day that you're kind of living the life of your dreams. Would you get lazy or complacent, would you pursue knew goals, would you just be happy? Does this depend on the person?

I think it's possible to just be content with it.

I don't think I'd get lazy, or complacent because being those things doesn't make me happy. I'm happiest when I'm really productive, creatively, and moving forward. I think I'd be happy with things, but always want to set new goals for myself.

Does this depend on the person? Hi Monica, interesting question! I think it does depend on the person. People who set goals as a matter of course would most probably come up with further goals even if they were quite happy. (JOY)

My new goal is to learn how to spell! Great answers. Not really sure which I would be. I think I would tend to gravitate to setting more goals but sometimes wish I could just be content for a bit longer when things do start to go my way : )

I would be happy. I know when I'm happy I attract new opportunities to learn or do and I would embrace them to learn and explore. I'm sure I would have times of complacency interspersed with times of focused productivity.
I would just love my life without feeling any guilt.

Thanks Kathy, I really appreciate your post! I think that is exactly where I am right now but was feeling this pressure to do more. I'm doing what you said and I'm seeing opportunities that I had not considered before : )

I would be happy that is for sure! I doubt I would also become lazy about it but that never happened to me so who knows. I also know that there's no way that I would become arrogant because of this, I am not someone like that.
