It is a part of our intrinsic makeup. If people ever did achieve a level of absolute consistency, the need to improve oneself would not exist. The futile journey towards perfection that mankind is on shall never end. Regardless of what a person believes, it is what drives us all forward.

We work hard to obtain something completely intangible by natural means. It’s an obvious truth. Most people realize it. Yet, we all still move forward.

If, somehow, we were able to achieve perfection, we would never be content. Humans always want what they don’t have. And when they get it, they want to revert things back to the way it was prior to the current situation.

That’s just the way things are.

Or, is it possible to somehow supersede the drive?

If everything is possible, then somehow, I believe one can.
