"这个世界上最伟大的事情不是我们身处何地,而是我们前进的方向。"
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Simplified Meaning:
It's more important to focus on where we're headed than where we are right now. Imagine walking in a park. If you're standing still or walking in circles, you won't get to the playground. But even if you're far from it, as long as you're moving towards the playground, you're making progress. This idea reminds us that our current situation isn't as important as the steps we are taking to improve or move towards our goals. For example, a student struggling with math might feel discouraged, but as long as they keep studying and getting help, they're moving in the right direction. Progress and growth matter more than where you currently are. This way of thinking helps keep our goals in sight and encourages continual movement forward, no matter our starting point.
