Curious if corona quarantines have changed folks' perspectives on this. I consider myself pretty high on the "success addict spectrum", but after sitting at home in my sweatpants (or underwear) for the past 4 months, I just feel like some of those "success desires" have lost their luster.

So much of desiring success is really about desiring recognition from others, and for some reason I just feel like I care less after being socially distant for this long.



I actually feel like covid lockdown has had the opposite effect on me. Many of the things I enjoyed doing have been made impossible or much more difficult, so it feels like all I am left with is striving for work accomplishments.
