You know that feeling when you've maxed out your skills in an rpg game and nothing else is challenging for you? When everything seems boring? The same principle applies in life - you can fuck a shitload of women, buy a luxury house, build an outstanding career, try different drugs, but in the end you will still be left with a feeling of emptiness inside you. Being in the process of accomplishing something is always more exciting than getting the result, but the higher the goal, the harder it is to enjoy the process. Also, it's always lonely at the top. When you are very successful, people behave insincerely with you, they try to appear better than they really are and they look for opportunities to use you for their own ends. Michael Jackson had no friends and couldn't walk down the street because he was hunted by paparazzi and crazy fans, Elvis got fat and died on the toilet at 42. Success didn't save people like Kurt Cobain, Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell from depression and ROPE.
Stop worrying and start appreciating the little joys in life.
