The Journey Is the Goal!
Idea – Path – Start – Path – Goal
The journey is the goal. My path. My goal.
It took me a really long time to figure out what I actually still want to achieve in my life. That’s why I’m writing this post. I’m not the youngest anymore, but I know: It’s never too late to set new goals—and to truly go after them.
The phrase “The journey is the goal” has taken on a new meaning for me. I want to walk my path consciously now. And I also want to share it.
What do I need to do for that?
Find my own path, set small milestones—and then take it step by step.
Origin: “The journey is the goal”
The exact origin of the phrase “The journey is the goal” is not entirely clear. Many say it comes from Confucius, the Chinese philosopher. But no matter where it comes from—the message is powerful.
And yes, it sounds simple—but many people still don’t dare to set out.
I can understand that. I was afraid too. It was easier to do nothing.
But at some point, I realized: I have to make a decision. For myself. For my path.
This post here is my start. My first step.
I’m starting to take a closer look at my goals. I’m planning my path with realistic milestones.
I want to move forward a little bit every day—no matter how small the step is.
Because every step counts. And over time it becomes easier, because you can see: “Something is happening. I’m growing. I’m moving forward.”
So: This is my starting shot. I’m curious to see what comes next.
