Climbing the Right Mountain

It is better to climb slowly up the right mountain than to climb fast up the wrong one. This idea emphasizes the importance of identifying personal values and goals rather than chasing external definitions of success imposed by society. Many people find themselves pursuing what they think they should want, often leading to regret or disillusionment later in life. Taking the time to reflect on one's true desires can prevent the mistake of scaling someone else's mountain and ensures a fulfilling journey.
