An example, what if you worked really hard for something and you finally get it.
wouldnt you be afraid to die? coz if you do you wouldnt be able to enjoy that ting you have worked so hard for. What do you guys think of this? How bout you succesful people or you people working towards your goals? arent you afraid of dying and not being able to enjoy the things you love anymore?; |
One thing I've learned through my experiences is that while it's sweet and great to cross the finish line and actually achieve a goal, the most rich and valuable part of achieving the goal is the actual process of getting there, not the end result. Please don't misunderstand me, I enjoy savoring the moment of victory and celebrating an accomplishment, but honestly, the most interesting parts of my story are the parts when I'm climbing life's proverbial mountains, not the parts when I'm standing on the proverbial summit and taking in the view. Think about the plot of a novel or film. Which parts are the best pageturners, or the part that you definitely don't want to miss? Isn't it the part BEFORE everything is all resolved that is most exciting to experience? That's the
journey, not the
destination!
One thing you may notice about successful people is that they always have another challenge ahead; another mountain to scale. Therefore, if you intend to be successful, you probably WILL die while in the process of achieving certain goals. And if that happens, you'll be in great company!
I encourage you to view success as a journey or process, not a destination or a discreet event. Most people never "arrive" because in life the road is endless.
