One person's heaven is another person's hell. This description of self-actualization sounds a lot like the concept behind Siddhartha's goals of finding nirvana. I've thought a lot on the idea of having nothing that can upset me throughout my young adult life, and I keep coming to the realization that having nothing to solve would eventually bore me. I personally thrive on change. Being a monk would drive me insane. However, the idea of striving for my absolute perfection would absolutely tear me apart! Never being happy with where I am at this particular moment in time would be to spend the majority if not the entirety of my life never knowing the contentment of living in the present.
