DON'T BREAK THE TRAIL
Sometimes, the journey of life is like a journey without a map. You embark on a journey with only a vision of your destination in mind not knowing how to get there, but following as the unfolding of time and events lead.
These journeys aren't always as smooth as expected and envisaged, and if we are not careful and determined, we might be tempted to abandon the journey, quit our pursuit, and rescind our decision to follow through to the end, but we would have wasted every resources and efforts that had gone into the journey until that moment.
Winning in life as in sports, does not come easy, and takes a lot of hard work, determination, dedication, and grit. It takes staying true to the course, the journey, the process irrespective of the circumstances, inconveniences, and challenges that may come our way. We must be ready to give our all to get to that desired destination.
Steve Jobs once said "You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."
It is only an unbroken trail, a process that is followed through till the end that can lead to a destination of difference. The forward movement may not reveal the true importance of the journey, but a retrospective look at the journey from the destination will tell the true value and essence of it.
Trust your process, trust the journey, believe in yourself and be ready to give your all. Be a trailblazer, not a trailbreaker, the journey will not be easy, but not impossible, will be tough but, eventually will be worth it. Blaze the trail, don't break the trail.
