Journey is more important than destination

“Not I, nor anyone else can travel that road for you.

You must travel it by yourself.

It is not far. It is within reach.

Perhaps you have been on it since you were born & did not know.

Perhaps it is everywhere- on water and land”.

Journey- reaching our destination always lefts us with a sign of relief. Whether we are travelling and want to reach a part of place or want to realize a point in our lives where we manage to fulfill our dreams, it is important for us to realize the journey or the things which we go through to accomplish our dreams are more important than what we eventually achieve. When you go through a variety of things in the journey, you tend to introspect and realize what are the things you are doing right and where you are going wrong. You cannot change things after you reach your destination but can do so while you are trying to get there.

“A journey of a thousand miles begins 

with a single step”.

When you are on a certain a path, it is important to measure your steps and keep introspecting about your actions from time to time. Success is a lousy teacher. It is quite true as success can only teach you so much about life. Apart from informing you what does not work, failure makes you strong as a person. It gives you the strength to fight with difficulties and overcome challenges as you go about chasing your dreams.

A lot of us expect things for happens to us in a single day. We want to achieve everything quickly. that is not possible simply because we cannot achieve anything without  being prepared of it. Even when we think we are ready to live our dreams, we end up realizing that a little more preparation is what we need and that preparation happens in the course of the journey. We often need time to process a few things. While waiting for a really long time to do something is not right, waiting for the right time to take big leap is not a bad idea at all.

“Success is a journey, not a destination.

The doing is often more important than the achieve”.

The journey gives you time to devise a proper plan of plan, revise it and implement it at a time when you feel you are ready for it. The satisfaction and happiness you get when you finally lay hands on it is something else. As the journey becomes complex and tougher, it makes you work harder to walk through the course of it and reach your destination. The reward tastes doubly sweet when you work hard for it and give it your all to achieve it.

If you make all the right moves while on your way to achieve your dreams, you will find it easier to reach them. The way you undertake your journey and the kind of decisions you make in the process pave the way to your destination.

The journey to every destination starts with a small step. If you take that step and the following step right, then you reach your destination sooner than later. It is important to enjoy the journey and embrace all the rewards and hardships you encounter during the process as a learning curve.

“Big goals are scary. They’re intimidating.

They stare you down. They swim in a sea, where glimpses of ideas and flickers of dreams float in the nebulous future of someday”.
