About this listen
More money.
More success.
More stuff.
More achievement.
We tell ourselves this time it'll be enough.
That once we hit that goal, buy that thing, reach that level… we'll finally feel settled.
But it never quite lands.
In this episode of Tickety Boo, we talk about the psychology of "enough" — and why chasing more rarely gives us the peace we're looking for.
We explore:
-
Why the goalposts keep moving
-
How success and happiness get tangled up
-
The quiet emptiness that can sit behind achievement
-
And why "more" often feels like the answer when it's actually the distraction
This isn't about ambition being bad.
It's about noticing when striving turns into running — and asking what we're really hoping more will fix.
If you've ever thought "I should be happier than this" — this episode will resonate.
