I find the hardest part to define enough for me at the moment is my creative pursuits. It always feels like it's not enough because every other parts of my life takes precedence.

In the past, one way for me to find out what's enough is when I have more of one thing and realize it doesn't contribute to my overall happiness anymore, then that one thing is at its enough...

That's great you were able to recognize when more doesn't contribute more to your happiness! And I totally get it about the creative pursuits. Out of curiosity, do you mean not enough time or some other resource when it comes to those creative pursuits?

At the moment, it's the lack of time. And I keep revisiting my priorities and wondering what else can I drop from the bandwagon so that I can make more space for it. To some extend it will also need other resources like money if I intend to take courses, but at the moment the first hurdle is to allocate more time for it.
