Find the Good in this Very Moment

I’m reading David Fideler’s excellent book Breakfast with Seneca, where he quotes Seneca in one of his letters:

“If you want to escape your troubles, you don't need to be somewhere else: you need to be someone else.”

Those searching for meaning or purpose in life might think a new place will provide answers. But a new location, a new job, a new partner doesn’t guarantee a better life or a fresh start.

Finding purpose involves understanding your values, interests, and goals. It’s internal work that can be done anywhere.
