Beginning the Journey

The right mindset is the first step towards the journey.

A bit of adviceGiven to a young Native AmericanAt the time of his initiation:As you go the way of life,You will see a great chasm. Jump.It is not as wide as you think.

I now know that success can not choose me. It is waiting on a path that I must walk. In truth, it waits there for everyone.Many do not know where the path begins. Some search for a shortcut to the end. But the majority of the world does not even realise there is a path there at all.I have been shown the start of that path and I am ready.

Your personal declaration of will is the first step in a seemingly impossible journey.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel, but it begins with you. You have the power to take the first step toward a better future.

I now know that success can not choose me. It is waiting on a path that I must walk. In truth, it waits there for everyone. Many do not know where the path begins. Some search for a shortcut to the end. But the majority of the world does not even realise there is a path there at all.

Every adventure requires a first step. Trite but true, even here.

The path to inspiration starts upon the trails we’ve known; each stumbling block is not a rock, but just a stepping stone.

There is always a step small enough from where we are to get us to where we want to be. If we take that small step, there’s always another we can take, and eventually a goal thought to be too far to reach becomes achievable.

Maurice’s maxim: “To solve a problem, take it for a walk.

The visionary mind takes many turns before settling on any specific path.

Overcoming Obstacles

If commitment is required to start, it is deeply important to persist to reach the end. All the path is done walking, where there are obstacles, go around them, where there are falls, get up, where you feel tired, rest, but never stop until you reach the destination.Tania Tome (C)

On the sands of hesitation, lie the bones of countless millions.Who at the dawn of victory sat down waiting and waiting died. So always remember to keep moving no matter how small steps you take one day you will achieve your destination.

If you stay determined, the obstacles cannot stop your progress. You will triumph over every mountain.

One thing guaranteed in life is that you’ll experience twists and turns, obstacles, roadblocks, and battles.

Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.

Perseverance is about keeping on the path even when no one else is seeing where you are headed

The difficulties you meet will resolve themselves as you advance. Proceed, and light will dawn, and shine with increasing clearness on your path.

For scientific leadership give me Scott; for swift and efficient travel, Amundsen; but when you are in a hopeless situation, when there seems no way out, get down on your knees and pray for Shackleton.

She had quoted a Bene Gesserit proverb to him: “When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movement becomes headlong – faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thought of obstacles and forget that a precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it’s too late.” Paul.

Much we learn only to forget it again, to stand by the goal, we must traverse all the way to it.

For our path in life...is stony and rugged now, and it rests with us to smooth it. We must fight our way onward. We must be brave. There are obstacles to be met, and we must meet, and crush them!

walkin' thru path is struggling to the aim ahead. imaginin' what final could see will give big motivation to step with spirit. many obstacles seem nothing. but when struggling ends nothingGod knows this effort

Mother Ganges teaches us that if we want to attain the sea of our aspiration, we must persevere in our goal and never be discouraged by the inevitable obstacles that come on our path.

Self-Discovery

A journey through nature is always a road to leads to self-discovery.

There is only one great adventure and that is inward toward the self

Invest your time to know your self. Things which are meant for you follows you in your way. -Giridhar Alwar

Learning to navigate the unpredictable terrain of life is an essential skill to develop. We can't live a happy life if we are unwilling to pave the path that will lead to our personal fulfillment and destiny. Learning to sit comfortably in the seat of uncertainty is challenging, but equally rewarding, because discovery is what waits just underneath the surface of that uncertainty and that gives us the chance to become fearless explorers, of our own lives.

We have all a better guide in ourselves, if we would attend to it, than any other person can be.

You must find your treasure in order to make sense of everything you discovered on the path.

I am interested in the unknown, and the only path to the unknown is through breaking barriers, an often painful process.

Every student of science, even if he cannot start his journey where his predecessors left off, can at least travel their beaten track more quickly than they could while they were clearing the way: and so before his race is run, he comes to virgin forest and becomes himself a pioneer.

According to her we are each our own greatest mystery, and our life’s work is to solve ourselves. None of us ever succeeds, she says, but it is our duty to follow the trail. Regardless of how long it is or where it might.

You were born to journey in the direction of your purpose. Anything that halts your progress is contrary to your design.

Our internal intuition has the power to give the best guidance to walk on path of life.

There is in me an insatiable thirst for a quest. For discovering things greater than ourselves. Beyond that is a murky darkness which beckons me to its call. I seek movement for movement's sake. There is no destination except the verb of motion...I seek to dive into the unknown and allow its wisdom to take me away. And when it is finished with me, it will bring me back and things will never be the same again.

Continuous Learning

We lead our lives like water flowing down a hill, going more or less in one direction until we splash into something that forces us to find a new course.

When we walk new paths, we often stumble upon new gateways to unknown knowledge about ourselves, the world and the people around us.

When you lose your path, you get an opportunity to discover a world you have never known! And better worlds are often found this way! Darkness and uncertainty hide presents in itself!

The things we must walk through in life that bring us to the places of knowledge and understanding are never the easy path. From Book 2 The Cross of One Horse

We wander along the world along many paths and maybe without knowing it we are walking now along one path towards success!

[W]hen it comes to goal pursuit, it really is the journey that counts, not the destination. Set for yourself any goal you want. Most of the pleasure will be had along the way, with every step that takes you closer. The final moment of success is often no more thrilling than the relief of taking off a heavy backpack at the end of a long hike. If you went on the hike only to feel that pleasure, you are a fool.

Sometimes, all it takes to see the right path is a flash of brilliant insight from someone else.

Meeting all walks of life, it broadened your horizons, let's say that.

Traveling the paths of greatness, even in someone else's footprints, is a vital means to acquiring skill.

Every student of science, even if he cannot start his journey where his predecessors left off, can at least travel their beaten track more quickly than they could while they were clearing the way: and so before his race is run, he comes to virgin forest and becomes himself a pioneer.

Life is a maze in which we take the wrong turn before we have learnt to walk

Carving our path back to freedom, may take a lifetime, BUT it all start with a decision to move in the direction of our heart without fear of the consequences. It begins as a decision, then it transforms into a practice and soon it becomes our daily habit.

Embracing Change

Knowing the path to follow doesn't make it a breeze to step along. If every desire were only a skip, hop, and a jump away, we'd all have arrived.

When we are able to break free from the imprisonment of our little, small self-thinking and dare to face the essence of life, we recognize we are never at home with ourselves. We are always on the road. By challenging the unknown and the unidentified we are capable of opening our skyline. ("Transcendental journey")

It takes brave thinking to sail to your own periphery, to see your boundaries, and break them through.

You enter life, full of goals, desires and loves to conquer, you want a quiet place. Light and a cold breeze to lie down. You make the trajectory of your heart. But who decides its fate? If it's the captain, the first step of your effort will count. The second step is for your desire to conquer. The third step is for your will to win.

Sometimes principles must be quitted without blinking en eye to discover the new paths!

I notice well that one stray step from the habitual path leads irresistibly into a new direction. Life moves forward, it never reverses its course.

It is easier taking the beaten path than making our way over bogs and precipices. The great difficulty in philosophy is to come to every question with a mind fresh and unshackled by former theories, though strengthened by exercise and information.

When we step out of our normal world and leave behind us all the usual barriers and prejudices, we tend to become more adventurous.

I am interested in the unknown, and the only path to the unknown is through breaking barriers, an often painful process.

Run and become. Become and run. Run to succeed in the outer world. Become to proceed in the inner world.

What you have been obliged to discover by yourself leaves a path in your mind which you can use again when the need arises.

Among the important realizations I had in my own days in the practice room was that if any one route to any one phrase didn't work after days of trying, then the exact opposite route should at least be explored, as well as every alternative in between, as counterintuitive as that often seemed.

Perseverance

All of my works are steps on my journey, a struggle for truth that I have waged with pen, canvas, and materials. Overhead is a distant, radiant star, and the more I stretch to reach it, the further it recedes. But by the power of my spirit and my single-hearted pursuit of the path, I have clawed my way through the labyrinthine confusion of the world of people in an unstinting effort to approach even one step closer to the realm of the soul.

Life rewards action. To get from where you are now to where you want to be requires forward movement and momentum. Although you may already know what it takes to bridge the gap, simply knowing what to do is not enough.

If you're struggling uphill; carrying your heavy load; fighting to stay afloat or battling your demons, know that you are definitely on the right path, and ascending to the place where you will one day embody the legend you seek to become.

The difficulties you meet will resolve themselves as you advance. Proceed, and light will dawn, and shine with increasing clearness on your path.

Much we learn only to forget it again, to stand by the goal, we must traverse all the way to it.

The difficulties you meet will resolve themselves as you advance. Proceed, and light will dawn, and shine with increasing clearness on your path.

Much we learn only to forget it again, to stand by the goal, we must traverse all the way to it.

If you do not get discouraged, you can reach your destination with persistence determination.

The prizes of life are at the end of each journey, not near the beginning; and it is not given to me to know how many steps are necessary in order to reach my goal. Failure I may still encounter at the thousandth step, yet success hides behind the next bend in the road. Never will I know how close it lies unless I turn the corner.

If you stay determined, the obstacles cannot stop your progress. You will triumph over every mountain.

If you stay determined, the obstacles cannot stop your progress. You will triumph over every mountain.

We know not what we shall be! We just follow the path with diligence pursuit.

Vision and Purpose

To Succeed, you must reach for the stars, and let your imagination find its own path

You enter life, full of goals, desires and loves to conquer, you want a quiet place. Light and a cold breeze to lie down. You make the trajectory of your heart. But who decides its fate? If it's the captain, the first step of your effort will count. The second step is for your desire to conquer. The third step is for your will to win.

There was a Suli saying: "The heart it an arrow. It demands aim to land true.” Her father had liked to recite this when she was training on the wire or the swings. “Be decisive,” he'd say. “You have to know where you want to go before you get there.

The key to finding your mission lies in listening to your heart and dancing to its beat.

Anyone can steer the ship, but it takes a leader to chart the course. Don't ever underestimate the power of planning. You can't make your vision come to life unless you outline each goal-driven step at a time. And you can't reach your full potential unless you plan how to make the most of your purpose and passion. When you look around and see people who are the captains of their ship, invariably they have taken pains to chart their successful course through life.

If You believe in yourself you can reach everything you want.

Reach for all the purpose you can and in the end you will find that it was fulfilled

Embodying recapitulation as a practical application to one’s path means not living the way you used to live, and being so completely in the moment that you are lost to yourself.

You were born to journey in the direction of your purpose. Anything that halts your progress is contrary to your design.

In the end, it all comes to choices to turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones.

Guidance and Mentorship

Our internal intuition has the power to give the best guidance to walk on path of life.

One of the Secrets in Life is to Make Stepping Stones out of Stumbling Blocks.

When you are at a cross road and can't tell why you started out in the first place and all you want to do is turn back, go back to the beginning, where you took your first step, recount why you took the first step of faith, number your many answers to the WHY, name them and BE GRATEFUL....

Life is a maze worth finding a path through. - The Malwatch

The Path and the Destination

There is your car and the open road, the fabled lure of random adventure. You stand at the verge, and you could become anything. Your future shifts and warps with your smallest step, your shitty little whims. The man you will become is at your mercy.

A good strategy of life is obvious: When the right path is found, it must be walked no matter how hard it is and the precious target this path destined to must be arrived at by defeating every difficulty encountered!

People fascinated by the idea of progress never suspect that every step forward is also a step on the way to the end and that behind all the joyous 'onward and upward' slogans lurks the lascivious voice of death urging us to make haste.

If you are at the edge of a precipice, your every step is vital!

In our lives and in our careers, whether we are aware of it or not, we are constantly navigating a path by deciding between our deliberate strategies and the unanticipated alternatives that emerge.

Explore everything; keep the best

You can have all the intentions in the world, but do you actually follow through?

There are two paths for anyone who is seeking to learn that which is kept hidden. One is to initiate into a society, secret or not, with traditions that are well-established. The other is to seek one’s own path and to forge the way by trial and error. Either choice is dangerous. In order to master the mysteries of the universe, one must bridge heaven and earth. The bridge is a world in itself.

That's how you write novels actually. You suddenly hit upon something and you realize this is the path you were meant to take. You'd be a fool if you didn't follow it. Perhaps it's like solving a difficult question in pure mathematics. There must be a moment when the solution is so simple and evident that you wonder why you hadn't come upon it before. When you do come upon it, you know it in the deepest part of your being. It carries its own logic.

Utopia lies at the horizon. When I draw nearer by two steps, it retreats two steps. If I proceed ten steps forward, it swiftly slips ten steps ahead. No matter how far I go, I can never reach it. What, then, is the purpose of utopia? It is to cause us to advance.
