Relentless winds shape sand dunes. When tiny grains of sand encounter an obstacle, they build one upon the other, often rising to astounding heights. Success dances along the shifting line, delineating the dune’s windward side and its slip face. Stability on a dune is nonexistent. Gales pound the beach, driving sand, forcing it to the ridgetop where it slides or rolls down the opposite surface.
Achieving our targets are often just as elusive. We believe we are on the right path, the one guaranteed to bring us what we desire. But the terrain changes, the winds change, we change. Our goals don’t have to remain static, instead, as we evolve, they can morph and develop. The choice lies in our interpretation.
What is your definition of success?
