I am more like on cruise control. A continuous series of banal experiences. Nothing to cause a change in direction or to generate a bit of excitement.

Is that the same as “existing,” or a few steps up? @jim44444

@Carissimi it is better than existing but without the long term goals of thriving.

I think I could be happy with this. I’d be thriving with cruise control. In fact, I like the idea of cruise control very much. It sounds like long-term stability. @jim44444
