Thanks for your wonderful work, I just want to bring another perspective, maybe the reason why people change jobs, relationships, etc. is because they see the only purpose as happiness, maybe happiness is supposed to be PART of human life but not the only thing?
Destination addiction is just the mind hustling you into believing happiness lives one milestone ahead, and the second you reach it, the goalpost moves. Aby is basically pointing out that we keep swapping jobs, partners, cities, whatever — and every time the shine wears off, we blame the circumstances instead of noticing the one constant that always comes along for the ride.
This is the it: Here’s the only spiritual practice you need today:
Whatever you’re doing right now, wherever you are, whoever you’re with, ask yourself: “Can I be fully here?”
Here and Now 😊

Yes. In fact, joy is what we already are the moment we stop identifying with the mind and the body.
When we act from that inner abundance, rather than trying to fix or improve ourselves from scarcity, everything around us begins to transform.
Creation becomes effortless. Life becomes aligned.
From that place, we don’t chase heaven.
We create it, here, on earth, simply by living from our inner Being.
As one of the biblical prophets said, “I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away.”
That prophecy isn’t about the world ending. It’s about the world we see when the ego ends.
And even that is only PART of the picture, I don't believe ego is here just so we should destroy it, rather to use it in its right place.
