Nowadays, more and more people are getting themselves involved in strange or difficult journeys. It creates a sense of achievement when we can encounter difficult situations in the journey. This helps build confidence in us and therefore we could face different tasks in our lives. Besides that, difficult journeys provide inner enlightenment and helps us relax. From a journey, we could know more about our inner self and at the same time take a break from our hectic lives.
Moreover, according to Goethe's advice, we should be bold enough to follow our dreams. When we are bold, we will automatically have an inner intelligence or inspiration guiding us and we should not be afraid of failing. Where there is a will, there is a way. No matter how difficult it is, we have to find a way to achieve our goals in life. Therefore, by undertaking strange or difficult journeys, we could train ourselves to accept challenges in life no matter what others think about us.
