The true explorer can see both.
Thanks, Jamie. I agree with “the true explorer” take.
But often we become so focused on reaching our goals, that we forget to enjoy the journey. Guard against becoming so single minded that your goals and dreams take over your life and prevent you from experiencing what life has to offer along the way.
Although it is necessary to keep your eyes on your goals and work steadfastly in the direction of your dreams, life is meant to be lived, and things that come along the way are part of it.
They are usually right under your nose but you can’t see them because you are too focused on bigger goals.
It’s funny cause I used to help run a theatre company in Long Beach, CA and for many years it was quite a lot of fun. When it became like an unpaid job J had ti stop and move onto more personally reaarding pursuits. Sometimes a journey can be about realizing you should maybe be on a different one. Will always love and aporeciate all that journey brought into my life but am also quite enjoying the nee one(s).

Well said, Jamie. You are right on spot. I agree.
