All the cycles end on the epiphany that cycles themselves don't exist. They are just pieces of an internal storyline you've been writing since childhood. The story is not optimized for your happiness, because you didn't even architect it. Try reinventing a suitable story for yourself from scratch.
Go ahead and skip the accomplishment part. Skip right to giving yourself success and happiness now. Time is the real resource at play here, so don't deplete by screwing yourself out of happiness every day instrospecting through these cycles. The only person that will/can give you what you want is you, and you have direct access to make it happen without the gauntlet you are imposing on yourself.
Or at least this is the direction I'd like to go...
