最初朝三暮四最终一无所有
[zuì chū cháo sān mù sì zuì zhōng yī wú suŏ yŏu]
The phrase 'Initially distracted, eventually ending up with nothing' reflects disillusionment after repeated indecision and inconstancy, leading finally to a state of emptiness both materially and spiritually. It implies a journey or experience of disappointment after failed relationships or pursuits.
