Conquer All Obstacles. Pursue Fulfillment.
In this article we take a look at the mission behind No Straight Path and dive deeper into the inspiration for our upcoming drop called “The Mission.”
“It is not in the pursuit of happiness that we find fulfillment, it is in the happiness of pursuit.” - Denis Waitley, American motivational speaker and writer
No Straight Path’s (NSP) Mission
What started as a vision to pursue fulfillment has evolved into a mission to overcome any obstacle that dares to stand in our way. Once our mission became clear to us, we decided we wanted to share it with you. And if you’ve come this far, it’s clear your journey has already begun.
The Foundation of Fulfillment
The Cambridge Dictionary defines fulfillment as, “A feeling of pleasure and satisfaction because you are happy with your life.” It’s important to remember that this is just one definition; fulfillment assumes various forms for each individual.
For one person, fulfillment may entail experiencing the next blockbuster movie, purchasing a home, or even making another car payment. To another, it might be more primal, such as putting food on the table, caring for family or friends, or securing a roof over one's head. What does fulfillment mean to you?
With over 8 billion people on this planet, there's no universal definition of fulfillment. What matters is not what your fulfillment is, but rather your commitment to pursuing it. It matters that you're willing to go ALL IN to attain it. It matters that you allow nothing to obstruct your path to achieving it.
Simply put, fulfillment should not be a matter of negotiation; it should be a matter of priority.
“Success is not just making money. Success is happiness. Success is fulfillment.” - Adam Neumann, former CEO of WeWork
Conquer All Obstacles
Obstacles are not merely physical roadblocks; they can also manifest as emotional, financial, and psychological barriers. These obstacles are strategically placed in life to slow down your progress, to deter you from reaching your objectives, to weed out the faint of heart. Throughout history, evolution - unbiased to good or bad intentions - has favored the strongest wills and smartest minds. In the face of modern-day challenges, it's imperative to keep your mind sharp and your will unbreakable.
We get it though, some things are easier said than done, but one thing is certain - adversity will cross your path at some point. It’s your decision to either let these obstacles stop you or break through them. It’s your choice to train - to sharpen your mind and your body - to overcome anything that stands in your way.
“Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.” - Roger Crawford, motivational speaker & tennis player
Final Words
The greatest thing about the NSP mission is that it’s meant to be done together. Our logo doesn’t just symbolize the obstacles you’ll encounter in life, it also represents the decisions you’ll make during your hardest moments, decisions that will define who you are and who you want to become. Our logo represents that, no matter where your path in life leads, you’re ready to adapt a mindset that doesn’t break under pressure, a will that can’t be broken.
*The Mission drop will be available early November 2023 - release date will be updated and shared amongst all platforms.*
