Self Imposed Prison

I realize that many people live in a self imposed prison. I get stuck in these sorts of times often myself before realizing it and trying to make a change.

People have these goals of what they need in their life. They say they need to get a certain job or live in a certain place or have a certain material thing.

Although getting to that goal would be great, they absolutely hate the thought of getting there. It is like they are imprisoned and can't live until they get to that goal and it makes them miserable until then. But they say that this is just "temporary" and that once they get to the goal everything will be great and happy.

If something is that complicated to get to, then it probably is not the path for you. You shouldn't be living in a miserable "self imposed prison" to get to a goal. The process of getting a to an end goal should be something you enjoy.

Remember it's not the destination that matters, it's the journey and adventure of getting there. If it was only about the destination then you could eliminate the headache and just go straight to the graveyard.
