Becoming in the Process
We often witness extraordinary feats in the news - a differently-abled person conquering a triathlon, a mother rowing across the Atlantic, or someone attempting to swim the English Channel. Our initial reaction might be skepticism - "Why aim so high?" or "Why push yourself beyond limits?"
Embarking on such challenges transforms you fundamentally. These endeavours are not solely about the end goal; they are about the journey and the profound self-discovery it brings. Through challenges, we unearth hidden reservoirs of resilience, gaining insights into our own capabilities and strengths.
Regrets do not stem from failures but from opportunities left unexplored. While we age, it's not the failed attempts that haunt us but the chances we never seized - the trips not taken, the words left unspoken, the risks left untaken.
Putting your all into a venture, even if it ends in failure, leaves no room for regret. It's the ungiven effort that consumes the soul. This principle extends beyond projects to relationships; the most profound pain comes from knowing you could have done more.
In essence, it's about the transformative power of the journey, the growth that comes from pushing boundaries, and the profound wisdom gained from embracing challenges head-on.
It's not about what you GET. It's what you BECOME in the process.
