Completeness in Dzogchen
Completeness in Dzogchen does not depend on anything external. We often feel incomplete because we are not in a relationship or do not have the right career. This has nothing to do with Dzogchen. Provided we have food and shelter then we are complete. Not only are we complete, but we are happy and luminous. This is why it is called the self perfected state, as it needs nothing apart from itself. This has to be understood at an experiential level and not an intellectual level. When one understands this then you are free from all manipulation as you no longer require external things to make you happy.

5 seed syllables by Tendzin Wangyal
If you have not already seen this post I would recommend it highly.

These are the five seed syllables that are used in the Bon tradition of a warrior.
It is very effective for handling emotional issues.
The most important thing I learnt from this is that we are complete just as we are. Provided we have food and shelter that is all we need. Its obviously good to have friends and be in a relationship, but that is not something we actually need.
What causes us most unhappiness in this life is comparison. If he or she has this why don't I. We don't seem to realise everyone is complete just as they are. No change is necessary.If we all realised this we could all become enlightened in a very short time. Keep on saying to yourslef I am complete and the joy I feel at this time, does not depend on anything or anyone.
