What if what you've been chasing in life
isn't really what you've been after?...
One Payoff explores how we make our peace of mind conditional on things being a certain way and what changes when we see this for ourselves.
For instance, have you ever had the feeling that there must be another way to live?
Perhaps nothing is particularly wrong.
But you may have noticed how much of life can be spent trying to get somewhere.
To feel more secure. More successful. More confident. More certain. More accepted. More in control.
Or simply to reach the point where you can finally relax and feel okay.
And yet the finish line has a habit of moving.
We get what we wanted and, before long, something else takes its place.
We resolve one thing and find ourselves thinking about another.
We change our circumstances, improve ourselves, understand more, achieve more, and yet still, there can be a quiet sense that something doesn't quite add up.
One Payoff is an invitation to look at why.
Different routes. One Payoff.
Behind many of the things we pursue, avoid, change and try to control, there may be something much simpler we're actually looking for.
We may call it relief.
Security.
Freedom.
Contentment.
Being okay.
Peace of mind.
Different people pursue it through very different routes.
One Payoff explores what happens when we begin to recognise that, and question whether the thing we've been waiting for was ever really on the other side of those conditions in the first place.
There's nothing here you need to believe.
Just something you might find interesting to look at for yourself.
