Goals in sight

If a long-term goal is already in sight, it is still a long and confusing way to achieve it. Yet, staying on track becomes a real challenge when too many of its aspects pile up. In this case, the lack of structure and understanding becomes an unsolvable challenge. Hence, one can quickly feel overwhelmed and lost.

In such situations, it’s essential not to lose motivation though things often seem hopeless because, in many cases, this would mean giving up on something you value. Instead of blaming yourself one day for what you did not even tried, a simple break might be the better alternative. As it allows you to get a distant view of the goals you already have, it can eventually bring you back on track.

St. Peter’s Square and Via della Conciliazione

This picture shows the view of St. Peter’s Square and Via della Conciliazione seen from the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica. You can enjoy the city from this perspective if you climb your way to the top of the dome. Usually, the square is full of tourists but because of the pandemic, there were still many travel restrictions and therefore, Rome and also the Vatican were quite empty. I have visited this basilica in July 2021 while I was staying in Rome, Italy.
