Core Life Principle: Invest In The Journey And Not The Outcome
<p>The world is constantly urging us to define our lives by the outcomes we achieve.</p>
<p>You set a goal for yourself and succeed — life is a blast. If you struggle or fall flat on your face, life is terrible. This model of reality causes us to live on a see-saw of happiness and despair where we spend too much time on the despair end of the spectrum.</p>
<p>You’ve probably heard it countless times but…</p>
<ul>
<li>What if we were to shift our focus away from the outcome and instead put our every ounce of energy into the journey itself?</li>
<li>Could you imagine a pinnacle level of existence where you are completely detached from all outcomes in life?</li>
<li>What if we channeled all our energy into the process and the growth, and the insight that came from it, regardless of whether we succeed or face setbacks?</li>
</ul>
<p>The question then becomes: <strong>Does it truly matter if I succeed or fail, if the experience was meaningful and it helped me understand myself and the world more deeply and truly?</strong></p>
<p>Yes, I <em>can</em> fail and still find truth. And usually, it’s often of the deepest variety.</p>
