I think it's sadly true. Too often we get so fixated on a goal that we forget to enjoy the journey. I also think a lot of people can identify with that let down feeling when they reach their goal - this is it? Because the truth is, getting the degree, the job, the spouse, the kids...whatever it is you set your sights on...doesn't really change who you are. This served as a good reminder to stop and smell the roses. Thanks! Thanks so much for sharing this. I think it’s sadly true.
