Ever thought, “I’ll finally be happy when I get that job… lose that weight… hit that goal”? Yeah. Me too.This episode is about the chronic chase — and the emotional crash that follows when every milestone just moves the goalpost.It’s about the day I realised: no matter how much I achieved, it was never enough. Because I was chasing happiness like it was a destination — instead of noticing it was already available right here, right now.🎙️ Welcome to Reflections & Realizations — where personal stories, psychology, and Islamic spirituality intersect to help you realign your inner world.🛠️ Realignment Tool #5: The Purpose Reset A 3-step framework to help you stop chasing and start anchoring in peace and purpose.✨ ChasingBefore you jump to the next goal, pause. Ask yourself: → What feeling am I expecting once I get there? → Who am I really doing this for? → Is this pressure... or purpose?So many of us are driven by unspoken expectations — culture, childhood wounds, perfectionism. The first step is naming it.✨ ContentmentCome back to now. → What am I rushing past right now? → What am I already holding that I used to pray for? The peace you’re chasing might already be here. But hustle culture doesn’t want you to notice it.✨ ClarityRedefine success. → Does this align with who I want to be? → Is this contribution... or competition? → Is this meaningful, or just noisy?You don’t have to quit ambition. You just need to anchor it in something deeper than metrics or medals.🎧 This episode is for you if you’re navigating: – Burnout from chasing goals – Post-achievement emptiness – Perfectionism or hustle culture – Faith-aligned ambition – Islamic mindfulness – Self-worth tied to productivity💬 Let me know how this landed — I’d love to hear your reflections. 📲 Follow @withalveena for more tools + real-time reminders. 🔔 New episodes drop weekly — subscribe to grow with us.#PurposeReset #HealingThroughFaith #FaithAndFulfilment #IslamicMindfulness #BurnoutRecovery #SpiritualWellbeing #IntentionalLiving #ReflectionsAndRealizations #MuslimMentalHealth #AnchorInFaithThank you for listening.
