Thank you for your fast reply. Please tell me if no.2 is incorrect. I don't know but I don't see anything incorrect about the number 2 example sentence.

2. It feels good to achive a goal worthwhile.

How about this? Is this incorrect? I believe the phrase in parentheses is optional. Thank you for your help in advance.

Now that I see your reduced clause in your second example, your #2 is structurally possible, but it is too reduced to be a clear communication—obviously, since it did not communicate to me.
