It isnโt necessary to know exactly how your ideal life will look; you only have to know what feels better and what feels worseโฆBegin making choices based on what makes you feel freer and happier, rather than on how you think an ideal life should look. Itโs the process of feeling our way toward happiness, not the realization of the Platonic ideal, that creates our best lives.
