You already made it. You just forgot to notice. In this solo episode, Jeff Luther unpacks the hedonic treadmill and why high performers keep moving the goalposts on themselves.
Jeff was listening to Ed Mylett talk about hell being meeting the person you could have been. And it sat heavy. Because Jeff lives in that world. Ambition. Growth. Hard things. One more rep. One more call. He gets it. He loves it. He's lived it.
But here's the question he can't shake. What happens when becoming better is the only scoreboard?
When the bar keeps moving and you never feel like you arrived?
In this episode Jeff tells two stories that hit different now. The corporate card that landed on his desk at Georgia-Pacific. The first conference trip his own company paid for. Moments the younger version of him would have been blown away by. Moments he never stopped to celebrate. Because the extraordinary becomes the ordinary fast. The thing you prayed for turns into a normal Tuesday.
This episode is a push back on toxic ambition without throwing ambition out the window. Ambition and satisfaction are not enemies. You can want more and appreciate now. You can chase excellence and still notice what you've already built.
Jeff also shares his free Success Reflection Guide. Two honest questions to sit with this week. What is something normal in your life today that younger you would be blown away by? And what are you really chasing, and what do you believe it'll finally make you feel? Because sometimes we aren't chasing the thing. We're chasing what we believe the thing will make us feel.
