Journey within!
Azim Jamal
Inspiring and empowering leaders to achieve material success blended with a deep sense of purpose, balance & happiness
Elif Shafak in her lovely book “The Forty Rules of Love” shares that “No matter what your destination, just be sure to make every journey a journey within”.
Planning, fine-tuning, striving to get better and better every day in every way, are all good things to do. However, if you fail to enjoy the ride and take the journey within you will miss one of life’s wonderful mysteries – that the learning and beauty of life is not tomorrow or yesterday – it is today, here and now!
At any given point in time, no matter how successful you are, there will be things that need to be done or fixed or improved upon. Focusing on these makes you get better is good. However, they will also make you feel incomplete and imperfect. So, do improve on these areas but also focus on the good things you have done and are doing so that you have the sustained energy to create positive changes.
Enjoy the ride and take the journey within as happiness is not a destination; it is a journey!
