Summary

This quote suggests that in order to truly thrive and be fulfilled, an individual needs to have goals and aspirations that extend beyond their own self-interests.

By setting goals that involve making a positive impact on others, contributing to the greater good, or pursuing noble endeavors, individuals can tap into a deeper sense of purpose and find a greater sense of fulfillment and aliveness.
