The idea given from Inside Jobis that no matter the journey,

the outcome is most important.Selfish Alone

Unhappy

In Walden, Thoreau’s transcendentalist

ideals argue the point thatsociety as a whole is far too modernized and dependent

on materialistic desires to seethe big picture.

“If you do what you love in life,and love the people in your life,you will gain all the acclaim andjoyful success that any person

could reasonably want.”Jim Byrne

Jim Byrne states that in thegrand scheme of things, the“amount of fame, wealth, or

social status.. It’s just not a partof the big picture.”

“One man has houses and lands, has a large bank account, drives

fast horses and has manyapparent friends, such a man

is accounted successful..

Yet all of these things thatminister to his pleasure havebeen acquired by unremitting

labor, by hard, avariciousdealings with his fellow-men..

And by trampling upon the hearts and affections of

thousands.

In the face of these facts, is the man a successful one?

It’s about the journey.“A wealth of research into the

psychology of success andwellbeing suggests that we’reterrible at predicting what we

need in order to feel we’vemade it.”

“If you want to know what really determines whether you

achieve satisfaction, theone-word answer is meaning.”

Meaning.And it’s as simple as that.

“Do or do not, there is no try.”
