What I mean is that after reaching the things and already in my hand I felt no more amused and I look forward for another thing to get. And make me mad and blame myself and feeling low of not getting it or producing it. Is this a matter of achievement or a matter of satisfying urges?

you are going after the wrong 'thing' in life. Find out who you are and what you like and what you really believe in(I don't even necessarily mean religious stuff but that too if you feel it applies to yourself). Drop all the things and focus what really matters. Think maybe if someone told you you had a month to live. What would be important for you in that space of time. It wouldn't be getting more things, now would it? Focus on what you would find important.

It is part of human nature no matter how much we have it's never exactly what we thought it would be. Which is why it's important to focus on non tangible things like love, friendship, family and things that are pleasing to the heart not the flesh. Focus on doing things for others. I highly recommend the book The Purpose Driven Life. Find a purpose that is not wrapped in material things and you will find satisfaction

Matthew 16:26 For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
We as humans were not designed to just live for a few years and then die. God made us perfect but sin has brough death and destruction. We have a redeemer Jesus Christ who offers to save us if we will only chose Him (Life). I feel fulfilled in doing what Jesus commands and to strife the better country like Abraham who looked after the Kingdom that is promised to all who believe - Hebrews 11.

a matter of not believing God.
