Why is looking at your progressed chart a good thing?

If I flew you to the middle of the desert, dropped you off with a jug of water and said good luck while you're trying to find your way, you will be pretty pissed off at me, right?

What if I did the same thing, dropped you off in the desert with a jug of water but this time I said if you walk 50 miles in that direction you will make it to town one you won't be as mad with me because I did point you in the right direction.

But what will also happen is it will make the journey more acceptable.

Oh all I got is 50 miles to do.

I can now mentally prepare myself for this upcoming journey.

Well that is what the progress chart is like.

It makes the journey more acceptable.

What happens when you accept the journey?

You feel better about what is going on.

You see it all comes back to the feelings you have on this ride we call life.
