It’s a one dimensional sound bite that sounds motivational but is really just another way to diminish someone else’s efforts. Sorry, @zenvelo, but your little aphorism is just bullshit. Maybe in a very specific context that requires absolutes, fine, but even recovery is not such a context. If you are in recovery and have never lapsed, well, goody for you, but the majority have.
In so very very many contexts, the journey is the lion’s share of the accomplishment.
