<strong>"What a man needs is not a tensionless state, but the struggling and striving toward a worthwhile goal"</strong>

<em>What this quote means to me:</em>
People like me need to set goals. But the thing I've come to realise is that, as soon as I have achieved a goal I need to set another to give myself purpose and direction.

On a few occasions I've found my plans thrown in to turmoil. Sometimes even, the goals that I had set no longer appeal or have relevance to my changed circumstances. 

But no matter; all that I have needed to rekindle my drive and enthusiasm is to discover a new "worthwhile goal" and I have been on my way again. The fact is that it is the "striving and struggling" that I love.

The journey <em>is</em> the reward.
