You know where you want to go. You can almost feel the life waiting for you there. But you still have to take the next step from where you actually are. ——————— Quote from the Episode: &quot;Just because I can see the finish line doesn't mean I'm at the finish line.&quot; ——————— DESCRIPTION: What happens when you can clearly see the life you want—but you're still standing somewhere in the middle of the journey? In this episode, Nicholas reflects on business, identity, patience, and the tendency to live mentally at the finish line before we've actually arrived.

But sometimes wisdom means looking down, taking ten steps, checking your resources, and trusting that forward is still forward. ——————— A Map of Wisdom: Here are some of the places we go together in this talk: ✦ Why seeing the destination can make us impatient with the journey ✦ The marathon lesson of taking life ten steps at a time ✦ Future-tripping versus being present for what is real now ✦ Why s…","meta_description":"Just Because You Can See the Finish Line | DIVO-Ted Talks Sometimes seeing the finish line makes the journey harder.
