Two speakers unpack a Henry David Thoreau quote and what it means to chase what you actually want. They talk about how the quote applies to your life right now, not just as inspiration but as a reason to move.
Hi there. Welcome to this week's inspirational quote. This week's quote comes from Henry David Thoreau, who was born in Massachusetts in 1817, and he was mentored by Ralph Waldo Emerson. And Thoreau was famous for his book called Walden. His quote is.
If one advances confidently.
In the direction of his own dreams and endeavors to lead the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.
What does his quote mean in today's world? I think a lot of us have been so conditioned to run at such a pace. We've got used to responding so quickly to emails, to texts, to voice messages, to Instagram posts, Facebook posts, LinkedIn posts. We're all conditioned to respond almost immediately.
And I think that pace has caused.
Us to get stuck in a trap of not really thinking through what it.
Is that we really want in life. And now is the perfect time to think about that. If you haven't thought about it deeply before, now is a really great time to think about what is it that you actually truly want?
What life do you want to create for yourself? And a lot of people get stuck in the thinking of what they don't want. So they don't want this or they don't want that.
And it's more important with this particular quote that Henry David Theroux talks about, is to really consider what is it that you truly want and then pursue it relentlessly until you get what it is that you actually desire in this life. So have a think through this particular quote, see where it might fit for you. And I look forward to sharing next week's quote with you next week. Have a great week. Bye for now.
