Interesting Quote on Goals

"What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals."
                        - Henry David Thoreau
                
This quote sounds simple, but is too easily forgotten.  There are certainly gains of materials in life, but we have to remember the long-term achievement is in the self.  Who we become in the months and years that pass.

Does this relate to exercise as well? It sure does and it also says a balance between mental and physical gains are needed to truly feel accomplished in our life.
