Love or not love, why do we care so much or think so much

My sister once told me that, don’t wait until I lose everything to see what I am having today. It can be too late to wake up. What do I want to achieve in this life?

Fame, the respect of other people?
Money?
The completion of myself - how can I be at peace with myself?
Love?

What are the crucial things that I want to do in this life? How do I want to live my life? Love is not math, it is not like solving a problem. It is emotional, not analysis. I am feeling in love not but it does not mean I can be happy, do I feel I can grow? I just want to grow alone right now? I need to complete myself before, what the heck am I talking about? I kept destroying her hope, her pride, and I kept making my action not aligned with my words.

What a sad day! “Either you run the day or the day runs you.” — Jim Rohn
