Alexander Rule

A legend is told about Alexander the Great. They find Alexander crying alone at the age of thirty. When asked why she was crying, her response was somewhat surprising. “There is no land left on earth to conquer, I cry for him,” says Alexander the Great.

As I put it, the Alexander Rule reveals the fact that we all need new worlds to conquer. Our souls abhor the idea of a final destination called self-actualization, maturity, or psychological health.
