Destination addiction spoils happiness along the journey


This meme is deep. One has to have a clear, big goal, and several smaller ones called steps. But to only focus on that big goal means one misses the enjoyment of getting there, the journey, accomplishing the small goals.

At the same time, one cannot only focus on the journey, because if you take your eyes off the big goal too long, you start taking shortcuts, or loses focus, or loses your passion to really live.

You should be afraid of your comfort zone, especially when you're unhappy there. There is no real growth in a comfort zone. Eventually you'll adapt to it, stagnates, and never be really happy. That is a life unlived.

Have a big goal, many small steps, and celebrate each step along the journey to that one big goal. And do not let fear, insecurity, uncertainty, or a lack of faith distract you. Push on, stick it out, and great things are guaranteed to happen.
