Success Is A Journey...Not A Destination

What does that statement mean to you?

I know what it means to me.  I have accomplished a lot in my life and have seen quite a few places.  Every time I do something I feel as though I am on a Journey.  It is not the Destination itself that I am fascinated with it is the Journey as to how I am going to get there and the items leading up to that point.

For me, it is the excitement of the Journey itself.  The anticipation of waiting for the day when you finally get to go on that vacation, you accomplish a major feat, a child's graduation from high school, taking a day trip to go somewhere, anywhere...anything that take you away from your normal, every day routine.  You look forward to soaking up every single minute of that moment (or moments).

What if you look at your business this way?  Image that your Success is A Journey and not a Destination.  A Journey is just that...an adventure that has neverending possibilities, twists, turns, ups, downs, good and bad moments.  A Destination is a stopping point.  You have reached your final Destination and now what?  Where do you go from here?

I personally would rather have the pleasure of continually being on a Journey...I never want to stop learning, going, doing, trying different methods. 

I also know that my Success depends on ME and no one else.  I do not blame others if something goes wrong.  It is not their fault, it is all mine.  I take full responsibility and accountability for my Journey.  No one else can predict where my Journey is going to take me.

Where are you right now on your Journey?  Are you just beginning?  Are you somewhere down the road?  Take inventory of where you are at in this moment in time.  If you do not see yourself on a Journey somewhere, stop and take the time to write one down before you go any further.  Take small steps...it will become clearer as time goes by.  Do not take the Journey for granted...it is everything you learn on those Journeys that makes you who you are today.

Do you believe that Success is a Journey and not a Destination?

The Journey

Hi Dianne!

Great article.

Success is measured in many different ways, by many different people.

Great comment about not taking the journey for granted. Learning everything as you go along.

The journey has many steps to it, many successes along the way.

I agree that success is a journey. One that takes you down many paths.

Best,

Dan

If it was no more than a destination everyone would be there. Most will drop out because of the difficulties of the journey. They just don't realize that the fun is in overcoming those difficulties.

Success is within us...

So many people overlook the fact that life is made of moments, life is made of  ''now''.

Thank you so much Dianne for reminding us that life is a journey, not a destination...
