No philosophy could only consist of that axiom because it would also have to contain its own extrapolations but Jean-Paul Sarte believed that humans were suspended in a permanent tension between stability of identity and consciousness of their own incompleteness. Everyone seeks to be everything that they can possibly be in their one life, but it is impossible to reach your own limit. The only genuine way to live your life without wasting it is to propel yourself toward your ideal self - but since you are doomed to fail, you will always be in some state of dissatisfaction with yourself. Thus only writhing [in disappointment that there is more that you can be] is good, because if you were ever wholely content, you would be wasting your potential.

I feel like the Super Bowl Halftime show inspired this post. It's cultural impact has been profound and deep.
