“It’s not the destination, it’s the journey”
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Focus on the journey. We’ve long been taught to focus on the goal, but in reality it’s the journey that teaches us the most. According to a recent study by two behavioral scientists from the Stanford School of Business, those people who pursued their goal through the lens of a journey instead of a destination had greater success. Not only did they reach their goal, but they were able to sustain what they learned along the way. So what was the real achievement? Those smaller steps, victories, milestones, habits, and rituals that were developed as they worked toward their goal will continue to serve them for a lifetime of “journeys”—the ultimate goal.
