I remember the day when Chad and I stopped somewhere in Arkansas on our way home from our wedding. We had been married in my little hometown in Texas and were driving to Nashville to start our life together. I couldn’t seem to stay awake in the car. Chad drove almost a thousand miles while I slept soundly in the seat next to him, perfectly content for him to carry me home after a whirlwind week of wedding craziness and a two night honeymoon.

Previously, I wrote about how sometimes it’s all about the journey and not the destination at times. Sometimes it is all about the destination as well. The destination can be just as important as the journey in some cases, like moving to a new town to start over or improve your life or arriving at the end of a journey of self-discovery or self-improvement, either physically, spiritually or mentally. Great athletes who strive to be at the top of their game sacrifice offseason by training hard to achieve the goal of being the very best in their respective athletic area, as do academic competitors. The difference between an average competitor and a great competitor is their passion and what they do when no one is looking, like training during the offseason. The payoff for them is, of course, the destination, which is being very successful in the area they train.
