Desire the Journey, Not Just the Destination
Desiring the success of others should come with acknowledgment of the sacrifices and challenges that accompany it. Success is often perceived through a superficial lens, focusing only on the highlights of a person’s life while ignoring the costs, such as hard work, dysfunctional relationships, and personal struggles. It’s crucial to evaluate whether one truly wants the same level of ambition and its tolls. Moreover, re-defining success is essential, as personal definitions may lead to feelings of disappointment and unhappiness if they don't align with one's values and experiences. Embracing a holistic view of success, inclusive of both achievements and sacrifices, fosters a healthier perspective on aspiration.
