I read a book... "The alchemist by Paulo Coelho" is a Beautiful book. A Beautiful book I tell you😍 especially for individuals seeking to fulfil their innate dreams.
"The writer Paulo Coelho has followed a dream in a quest for fulfilment.
His dream, to be a writer, met with frustration throughout much of his early adult life, a time in which he worked in various professions, some of them MATERIALLY REWARDING but SPIRITUALLY UNFULFILLING."
I know I've been there before, for a short period to the world but felt long to me, of my adult life. In truth, I loved every aspect of that experimental period of my life which has prepared me for where I am now and assured me that the part I thread on now is the one for me.
Many will lose sight of the experimental phase of their lives and stay where it is materially rewarding even if it's not spiritually fulfilling due to fear of the unknown like the alchemist faced all through his journey finding his spiritual fulfilment (fulfilling purpose). The alchemist faced obstacles of course and there was a time if not many when he wanted to turn back and give up on the course (the too bad phase and the so good but not there yet phase).
If you only just hold on, trust your inner man and keep pushing you will eventually get your treasure and boy what a fulfilment that will be. It will be worth every bit of the journey and everything that has happened to you through the quest will make so much sense in the end.
"Paulo Coelho once said that following your dream is like learning a foreign language; you will make mistakes but you will get there in the end.
Don't settle, you can do this you know.
The alchemist is a must read. It embodies completeness in discovering what the world and our existence is all about and so much more.
If you've read the book, what was your take from it? Would love to know what you think about it and the aspects of it that touched you the most.
