What is it that we wish we conquered?
Milestones along the way or a summit anchored.
Do we focus on what awaits at the end?
Or celebrate those small accomplishments, to help transcend.

Don’t get this wrong, lose not the sight of your goal,
But also cherish those moments along the way so you feel whole.

It is a journey along the road, where no corners can be cut,
A “constant gentle pressure” without a single, ‘but’.
Don’t run behind success while in this race,
But chase for excellence and success will follow right into its place.
To be accomplished we should not sweat and put in the hard work,
Instead get to the grind, so to be capable, now there’s the perk!

In the end what may our life-long goals be?
The feeling of contentment, sense of achievement or just to be free?
Whatever be the light at the end of our long-sought dream,
To be successful is quite a common trend, set as a theme.

What matters, is not what we didn’t achieve along the way,
But how we excelled at the little things, climbing a mountain, soaring
away!
