Curiosity Fuels Momentum
Not everything makes sense in the moment - you connect the dots looking back.
Along your journey, you travel various roads.
Some roads may be long and difficult.
Filled with zigzags. Dead ends. Traps.
People who sway you off-course.
You catch a glimpse of what lies beyond.
And you explore out of curiosity.
The more you do, the more lessons you learn. About your own wants out of life.
And you build momentum, making different decisions.
And then you breakthrough to one of your initial goals and realize it was more attainable than you thought.
Maybe you had to be consistent for a long time.
Some actions take longer to compound into a powerful results. It's tricky to know which skill will evolve, nor how.
It takes guts. To keep moving. Even after setbacks. Giving it another shot. Not giving up.
Along the way, you also get to meet others who do the same. And when you meet eye-to-eye... those are my most memorable friendships.
My curiosity usually got me there. But it's not always obvious in the moment.
So, realize where you are in your road. Look back to connect the trends once in a while.
It might help your road ahead.
... where are you now relative to your initial goals? What patterns do you see? And how would it change your next goals?
