We are so focused with what we need to have, that we forget everything we have achieved and lose the north of our true path...

Well said, @sheila23.

This is often the path that life imposes on us. We are always thinking about the future and tend to forget about the present (and everything we've accomplished in the past). However, we can't let the ego take over and show that it's the boss because we are the ones who create it.
