Agency and direction are definitely two pieces of the puzzle, for me anyway. My lowest points are when I find myself torn between lots of directions, and not being able to decide; or, when I have a plan, to have it constantly frustrated by obligations and interference outside my control.
Relatable, from personal experience and observation of others who are ‘stuck’ doing what they don’t like. For me it’s agency, which means mostly not being a cog in someone else’s machine.
Our modern society is quite the mismatch. Now, most of our time is spent on screens. Very odd. I'm glad you found happiness in a more traditional lifestyle.
Very important concept!
