As we approach the end of another year, it’s natural to reflect on our journeys. It is important to reconsider how we measure our growth and success. Rather than fixating on distant goals that can feel elusive, Lori introduces the concept of the horizon as a guiding light, but not a measuring stick. This shift in perspective is inspired by the wisdom of Octavia Butler, who emphasized the importance of habits over fleeting inspiration.
Lori discusses the concept of the “arrival fallacy,” a term coined by researchers that highlights the belief that reaching our goals will finally bring us happiness and fulfillment. However, the reality is often different; new goals emerge, and the cycle of chasing continues. Instead, Lori encourages us to focus on the small, meaningful progress we make each day. Today’s episode is a gentle reminder that growth is not a race; it’s a journey filled with small steps that lead to meaningful change. Push on play, to unlock your life!
