Growth Mindset Psychology: The Science of Self-Improvement

Journey vs Destination: How to Optimise For The Right Things In Life


Listen Later

Why do we get off track, and how do we get back on track?


Humans love goals, but where do our goals come from?


How much do we choose them vs. have them chosen for us...


We learn how to stop working towards destinations that look good to others.


Instead, we dissect what makes a good goal that creates a journey we want to go on.


Topics include:

  • The reality of aspirational destinations
  • Focussing on the journeys of your life
  • A healthy relationship with money
  • How to stay motivated
  • The rule of thirds

  • As we learn more about appreciating the road less travelled and what a good life means to us we can step back from the frenetic distractions and occupations to think about what really matters.


    As the famous saying goes "It's just another cold dark night on the side of Everest" - Sometimes our goals feel boring in the day-to-day and we lose sight of the big picture. Remember there is something worth fighting for.
