A short excerpt from a YouTube conversation (Chris Collins with Johnny D'Esposito) about Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist. The speakers emphasize the book's theme that life is a journey not a destination, arguing that embracing movement and living in the process is life-changing and shifts pursuit from 'chasing' to 'living.'
One of the themes in the book's book is that it's a journey, not a destination. Like, stop expecting it to all line up and all be perfect and just move. Yeah, move and have a. You know, have a sensibility.
But the movement is like, that's it. Like, that is it. You're living it. Once you're doing it, once it. Once you grasp that concept, it's like, man, I think it's life changing. I really do think it is. You're still going after something, but it's not so much like chasing. You know what I mean?
Yeah.
It's like you have it and you're running with it and. And growing it as you go, instead of just chasing this thing that you don't have yet, but you do have it. You're. You're literally doing it.
