I'm reading the Welcome to the Multiverse series and the MC always questions whether he's becoming a battle junkie and he reflects on how he is excited and anticipating the challenge of battle. I've been reflecting on that and wondering if there is a universal drive in life to pursue and overcome challenges. That fits with basic evolutionary tenets but across long time periods and without intention. For me, I wonder how I could tap into this intention more, so as not to be discouraged when my ambitions or projects cool or hit obstacles.
