System kills passion/inner drive. What to do?

A system can be defined as a dynamic combination of three key components: Mindsets, Methods, and Money. Each system is designed with a specific goal in mind. When the objectives of the system conflict with your personal goals, it can have a detrimental impact on you. This misalignment can drain your energy, which is the foundation of your passion and inner drive, leading to a gradual erosion of motivation. Consequently, a vicious cycle may emerge, characterized by frustration, anxiety, and hopelessness, while simultaneously fostering fleeting moments of hope and similar experiences.

The key question to consider in this situation is: What actions should be taken? The answer can be encapsulated in the three principles known as the 3Ss: Self, System, and Satisfaction.

Self

It is imperative that you possess a profound understanding of the system (referred to as the 3Ms) within which you operate. This knowledge should be applied intentionally, consciously, and consistently to foster your own satisfaction. Engaging in this deliberate and continuous pursuit of satisfaction will invigorate your intrinsic motivation and passion.

System

Your awareness of the system must be complemented by a strategic approach to navigating its complexities. By understanding the dynamics at play, you can effectively contribute to and influence the environment around you.

Satisfaction

Furthermore, it is essential to establish a supreme value—an unwavering principle that you will never compromise. This foundational value will serve as a guiding beacon, ensuring that your actions align with your core beliefs and aspirations.
