I think it is a perpetual event that continues until you breath your last breath. I can totally relate with the feelings you are experiencing. I find that I am both left and right brain. It seems that I go through periods when I need to be creative and others where I want to be logical and analytical. I have had several careers in my life as a result. Right now, I'm going through another analytical/left brain period and I am compelled to use that part of my brain more right now. But I know in a about 7 years or so, I will probably transition back to the other side again. It is fun to be mentally flexible, but it does pose challenges (of satisfaction) for me from time-to-time. I think many women, go though this period of self-examination.

In another, in terms of success, I'm not satisfied with myself. Absolutely not. I'm talented and I know for a fact that I can do more and can achieve more...more than what I've done already. I know this because it's in my mind...and if (insert deity here) put it in my mind, that's the way it is. Of course, I try to live in kindness and warmth right now, but that's not all that life is about. In one way, I guess spiritually, I’m happy.

Kindness and warmth, right? Why can't we live like that now? Is this a trick question? When you say "live the life you want to live now," do you mean the life you desire, the life you dream? I don't think it's the same as living the life you want. If your desire or dream was important enough, you would do everything you could to live that life. The life you *want* is more like a balance of desires. Most of us probably live the lives we want, with some parts that we desire more, and some parts that we desire less! (For example, my desire to be with my husband outweighs my desire to avoid freezing temps.) How? Kindness and warmth, right? Why can’t we live like that now?
