Hello, fellow Steemians! The secret to happiness is not arriving at the place you want to be. The secret is in enjoying the ride, rather than finding delight in the hope of the destination. ![image1.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmehYf225JNLCJ5ZyYf1rAUuCTyabGfJwMysf4F84bM7nD/image1.jpg) img src

The foolishness of taking delight in the idea of arriving at the destination is in the inherent nature of human beings; because there is no real destination. Mankind is always going somewhere. Take a look at your life. You all currently have a destination. What happens when you arrive at that destination? You find another destination, and you begin another journey towards it. You do not focus on the ride, and on the adventurous aspect of the journey. Most of us see this path as suffering and pain. We trick ourselves into believing that pleasure and delight awaits us at the end of the journey, and all we can do now is endure the hardships of the road. But what you arrive at in the end is not a state of being, but a result of these endeavors. That is why even the very brightest of us often lose themselves in a world of emptiness and depression when they achieve the thing that they have longed for. ![image4.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTuU3jPRoeqktzv4JM3W5N2ZM6kRRS2Hhpm6MJimzcUBZ/image4.jpg) img src

The problem rests on our understanding of the nature of life. Our parents, our society, and our culture have failed to teach us enjoyment. We are always anticipating the end to the best days of our life. As we hardly recognized the delight of going to school, we reject the joy of attending university or going to work. Even when we are travelling, we always think about the destination instead of actually enjoying our time. The next day you wake up to work towards achieving your goals, do not think of the difficulty that you are bearing, and do not take delight and hope in the idea that a wondrous destination is awaiting you. Rather, think about the fact that you are a part of a very small community of people on this good Earth that are, at the very least, moving towards something meaningful. Think about the meaning of everything that you do. Think about the significance of every step that you are taking. Think about how amazing it is that you have been given a chance to work and create and innovate and design and sort and feel and live! ![image3.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTCjBosTX5CrRg9e7sysyV7cfzWdgTwSRC7Ke5qSe6ZZy/image3.jpg) img src

The crazy thing about overcoming the illusion of seeing the journey as a big bubble of struggles and hardships, is the fact that you begin to realize those difficulties are not really difficulties. You begin to take pleasure in every obstacle that life has prepared for you. Because you are no longer tolerating the road, but playing the game of life. You see challenges not as trouble, but as a part of the quest that can make you grow beyond your imagination. For what is life, really, other than an adventure? ![image2.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQme3jLLVzcTxLXJa2sQFs319PCBMt8nxGDUQyiuJZxH4Ti/image2.jpg) img src

I'm always telling people that ‘time’ is our most valuable resource, and most of our time is dedicated to endeavors and trials to realize our dreams. We do not spend our time at the destination, for destination in itself is not a state. So, what happens if we spend most of our ‘time’ feeling awful and horrible? We lose life. If you have decided to go forward in all your dreams with courage and hope, one can only admire you and your bravery. But do not foolishly lose yourself in the illusion of the struggle, for even in the darkest of days, your journey is nothing but a delightful and joyous adventure. A BIG HUG! @chbartist ============================ Important Note! I have been working very hard on this blog since the beginning. I have a very busy life but I am giving my best and believe me I have shared experiences that I have been coaching thousands of people and I know that the change of the Mindset should be daily. I am already grateful to see you giving upvotes to each other and you can see this with the fact that many already have 8, 9, 10 upvotes. But I'm sure that with the effort of all of us we will see a community with, 40, 50, 80 upvotes and for that everyone should get engaged so we can make it come true. I believe and we can! Resteem... ***Remember Community: Please, if you commented and upvote on a new post I did, please always go back to the previous one because if someone in the community commented lastly because of time zone differences it will be without your upvote and that would not be fair. You all know the goal! We can reach: 50+ Upvotes each others! Attention!!! I'm reading all the meaningful comments from the posts. I am here making a list of all of you who have helped build this community by voting for each other who write meaningful comments and soon I will respond to everyone with comment and thank you all because I can already see this spirit being built in this Positive Mindset community and help between all of you. You will receive my upvote in all material and brief comments I will do this in all the posts I am following very closely and I can see what the people who are generous and contribute to this legacy that I am trying to build with all of you can become reality in a short time. AND First of all, I would like to thank all of you, who are the most active and proactive in this community, showing your generosity and always with meaningful comments. From now on I will always make a list of these incredible people who have helped to expand our goal of growing ever more. And if you are not on this list, please, after making your comment, write in that comment: Include my profile in the list, because I do or want to be part of all this with all of you! But I ask that if you are new around here you read many of the previous posts because they make it clear that we are building a community with respect among all, generosity and this blog is for those who really want to start moving their Mindset to positive and moreover be part of the growth of all of us who contribute to this blog. Please do not ask to include you in the list if you are just wanting votes or speculating because we want here people genuinely attuned to growth and good attitudes and as I have always said with Respect as the basis of all, generosity and positivity! Remember the rules. First leave your comment meaningful and then leave your message that you want to be included in this comment. Everyone is welcome and I hope this list grows exponentially because this will be a reflection of everyone's growth. I really do not want to be able to update the list of so many people that can be included in it. Let's go together towards the 50+ upvotes to recognize the efforts of those who dedicate their time so that we can become stronger and leave a legacy of growth in our lives and in the lives of others! ABOUT OUR LIST!!! WE NEED GROW THIS LIST! LET'S GO TOGETHER IN THIS COMMUNITY - RESTEEM! I'm not going to put this list in all the posts because I do not quite understand why, but some people did not like me to tag them even though this list is a list of acknowledgment and thanks from the people I've observed being the ones who write meaningful comments , are generous voting for each other and contribute more to this family we are building here. So stay tuned to the text below and in the next posts. @juanmanuellopez1 @moghul @coolguy222 @newageinv @gowealth @blessed-girl @cruis @lexymaine @alokkumar121 @aceandnotes @darlenys01 @rafique1953 @marvyinnovation @wems @ajks @alaisguineasis @amnlive @kimmysomelove42 @praditya @tommyl33 @samryan @vickykarma @brightsun @oppongk @kryp70kn1gh7 @hobo.media @theticket @royer94 @mentalhealthguru @bradley028 @nummulshrma @steemmatt @maxijgcomm @maikelblogo @mrblu @nancymj @petervi @mcoinz79 @missabigail @saludoalalma @mcnestler @moarafatshow @gargi @luis402 @rem-steem @shahzadeh @sumon-ar-vines @naijauser @yantrax @josema.saborido @khan.dayyanz @shapescooper @aceofhearts @marcocosta @rvag5 @fusroj @cashlane @borrowedearth @michaeljn @kchitrah @mitchhunter @nataliaeline @cherlianny @unknownphoton @unclefz @gardengranny @bettyamv @ghostwriter9 @wandrnrose7 @nancybriti @missladybug @shirophantomhive @rvag5 @ankitjnv @marvyinnovation @tommyl33 @gowealth @ustaadonline @daio @brightsun @mzubairch @lightestofideas @amit1995 @starapple @treodecimo @edinhazard @maxijgcomm @wasito @mariita52 @maroni55 @nataliaeline @ajtech2596 @keithf @wesleyvanderstel @grainsofsand @mariita52 @naijauser @castleirwell @juanmanuellopez1 @moghul @coolguy222 @newageinv @gowealth @blessed-girl @cruis @lexymaine @alokkumar121 @aceandnotes @darlenys01 @rafique1953 @marvyinnovation @wems @ajks @alaisguineasis @amnlive @kimmysomelove42 @praditya @tommyl33 @samryan @vickykarma @brightsun @oppongk @kryp70kn1gh7 @hobo.media @theticket @royer94 @mentalhealthguru @bradley028 @nummulshrma @steemmatt @maxijgcomm @maikelblogo @mrblu @nancymj @petervi @mcoinz79 @missabigail @saludoalalma @mcnestler @moarafatshow @gargi @luis402 @rem-steem @shahzadeh @sumon-ar-vines @naijauser @yantrax @josema.saborido @khan.dayyanz @shapescooper @aceofhearts @marcocosta @rvag5 @fusroj @cashlane @borrowedearth @michaeljn @kchitrah @mitchhunter @nataliaeline @cherlianny @unknownphoton @unclefz @gardengranny @bettyamv @ghostwriter9 @wandrnrose7 @nancybriti @missladybug @shirophantomhive @rvag5 @ankitjnv @marvyinnovation @tommyl33 @gowealth @ustaadonline @daio @brightsun @mzubairch @lightestofideas @amit1995 @starapple @treodecimo @edinhazard @maxijgcomm @wasito @mariita52 @maroni55 @nataliaeline @ajtech2596 @keithf @wesleyvanderstel @grainsofsand @mariita52 @naijauser @castleirwell @isabelpereira @nulifeiq @royer94 @yaleal @ushmil Thanks All of You!!!!
