In the case of completeness, note Godel's Incompleteness Theorem in the perspective of mathematics and reality. According to Godel's Incompleteness Theorem, completeness is an impossibility.
You've arrived at the wrong conclusion. Godel was stating the
expression of completeness is impossible in that it will never be complete.
What do you mean wrong?
If you cannot express completeness how can you ever know completeness in its absolute term.
The Oxford's dictionary of complete [verb] refer to completing and complete in the relative sense.
When one state one has complete a task to completion or fulfilled and realized one's ambition, that is so subjective.
Note we are in a philosophical forum and thus what is defined in the dictionary is very limited if without context.
I stated the more refined fundamental purpose of why people pursue health and wellness is to ensure they do not die prematurely.
It is the same reason why people eat food and good food;
the more refined basic purpose of why people pursue eat food and good food is to ensure they do not die prematurely.
This is the same with why people believe in a God [illusory and impossible] and do all sorts of things in the name of God believing they are doing their divine duty to please God. That is false. The fundamental purpose why theists believe in an idea of God is they do not die prematurely and want to avoid eternal death in hell.
It is also the same for others who suffer from some degrees of the existential crisis.

Thus,
In general you cannot stop at fulfilment of health but there are further objective beyond health to be fulfilled subliminally if not consciously, i.e. avoidance of premature death.
Logic has limitations but illogic is unbounded. Consider
health a relative state of being. It's how efficiently we metabolise. The being has aspects generally known as mind, body and spirit. Wellness relies on each of these aspects to be in a state of health but the fact is they each rely on the other. That is the conundrum of health.
You beat around the bush with the above, but
the more refined basic purpose of why people pursue health and wellness is to ensure they do not die prematurely.

I quote 'Know Thyself' very regularly but I personally take the effort to know more of myself.
As I have asked you before, how much do you know about your own brain and how it works, especially why you believe God exists as real?
From what you have posted, there is a lot to know about your own self.
Btw, you can question me on what you think I do not know about my self.
"Know Thyself" is an eternal quest I believe because man is a mere reflection. We can hold ourselves in a moment of time but that is just about it. What the human body is, what the mind is, what the spirit is?
You are beating around the bush.
As I have asked you before, how much do you know about your own brain and how it works, especially why you believe God exists as real?
Say, if you are feeling anxious, what [where, how, when] is going inside your brain and body.
Btw, try to stick to the point in the direction of the OP instead of beating around the bush. But I don't expect you will do that because your belief in God is groundless, thus GIGO in your arguments.
Not-a-theist. Religion is a critical necessity for humanity now, but not the FUTURE.
