How To Set Goals & Magnetize Your 2025 Vision To You
What I've learned is that completing the journey is the sad part because it's the journey. It really is. I mean, life is lived along the journey. And when you reach the end, yeah, there's some champagne, some corks popping and this and that. I'm always let down like, ah, man, that was I wish because you just you love it so much while you're doing it and then it's over.

So I'm always on to the next thing because I just love the journey, you know? Yeah.
The School of Greatness

I think the celebration is lived along the journey. Yeah. Celebrating the process. The process. Exactly. That's a good way to put it. Yeah.

How did you feel when you crossed the finish line of the marathon? I'm really curious.

You see all the boroughs.

It's like... There's a whole community of these sort of people. Largely half marathoners. And they're older. Most of them are retired. But they travel all around the world to run these half marathons just to see places. That's how they like... That's cool. It's a great form of tourism, isn't it?

It's much better than getting on a tour bus or something. And they say, yeah, I'd never run down these streets in Italy before. And this is a great way to do it.

How To Set Goals & Magnetize Your 2025 Vision To You
Yeah, I think so. And I'm thinking about the stories I tell in my most recent book. And people read it and they say that you just seem so happy doing what kind of seems miserable, like running 100 miles through the mountains. There's so much joy that's like bleeding from these pages. It's obvious. Even when you're struggling, it's like there's so much life in it.

Why is there so much joy in the struggle when you take on a challenge? I think we're most alive when we're struggling and striving for something. I think that Dolph Gajewski said that the sole origins of consciousness are suffering. I mean, life is about suffering, mostly. I mean, you know... Especially as you get older. You deal a lot more with loss. Life gets tougher in a lot of ways.

And it's just not... No, everyone's fighting a battle, right? No matter who you meet, you walk out on the street and you ask someone, tell me about your problems. They're going to go on for a long, it's going to be a long run, right? So I think everyone is struggling. And I think that running holds a mirror up to you. I mean, it says, here's your struggle. Here you are.

How are you going to deal with it? And you get to look at yourself and say, here's what I do when things get tough. You know, there's a saying that, you know, without war, we don't know if we're heroes or cowards, right? A marathon gives you that war. You learn, hey, I'm a hero. Like I can suffer. I can get through this. Yeah.
