To seek status is to seek satisfaction. The trick to enduring satisfaction is to want what we already have. What we always have is our values. Therefore, the status we seek is rooted in the values we hold. Our values become our lens for the status we seek. Acting them out consistently creates who we are.

The awkward truth, is that it's a natural desire. But one we need to learn to tame in the modern era. Because wanting more is actually our embedded quest to attain status. Status is a core human need, but knowing how to achieve has never been more confusing than it is today.
