“Happiness is not about the trophy or the finish line. It’s the journey. If you can enjoy your journey, you can enjoy your life.”
-Pharrell Williams
Choosing our happiness is a decision that only we can make just like choosing to enjoy the journey of our lives as Pharrell Williams points out in today’s quote. We can only achieve happiness by enjoying the process or the journey. The destination is never the goal because once you reach it what else is there? This doesn’t mean that everything is for not once we reach that pinnacle. However, I don’t think we can ever truly be satisfied because the hunger to become our best is always there and within us.
The journey is where we experience the ups and downs along the way making us into who we truly are. We must make every effort to be that critical consumer and enjoy each and every moment of this wild ride we call life. It is unpredictable as it should be. And this is where we truly embrace who we are destined to become. The question is are you ready to take that leap of faith and enjoy the journey and/or enjoy your life?
What does this quote mean to you and how can you apply today’s message towards developing your responsible decision making skills?
