"The best view comes after the highest climb"

From a matter of perspective, the first thing I thought about this quote is that even from
the most challenging things that we do, whether it is a sacrificial or risky it is to go for that journey,
in a matter of time we will also reach its peak and give the definition of satisfaction and happiness
at the end or at the top of the mountain. For example, in a classroom situation/scenario, we can
imagine continuously climbing a mountain to reach the top, which is the dream we want to be in
the future. However, along with the process, there will be failures that stop us to keep on reaching
the summit because we say to ourselves that it is too dangerous after we keep on climbing and we
keep on reaching our dreams. I actually also agreed with that but we also need to think that
everything can be slowed down and sure to create slow improvements for ourselves through each
day. Remember that every walk or step we take is still an achievement or a success for us even if it
is just a small thing to mention about.

The also thing that comes through my mind is the success that we put so much effort and
hard work into making it into a reality. Generally, people have their own dreams and want to have
in the future, it can be materialistic or self-improvement but they do not see the behind of that
success they are trying to be passionate about, just like successful billionaires and other business
owners who share their success and that can be also like hiking in a steep mountain because those
people had been in a delicate situation where they risk their money or even their whole business
just to reach on that definition of success they put through. It takes a lot of hard work, dedication,
willingness, or eagerness to push us from our limits until we reach the highest point of the
mountain where we can rest and see how those hard work and sacrifices have paid off.

In that eight-word quote, we thoroughly see how we can potentially think of the possibilities that
we can achieve on or prior on until we reach that majestic view at the highest mountain, even if it is
just a minor thing to celebrate, claim it because that appreciation and dedication you have, that
little piece of contentment you give on yourself will create an initiative for us to look down and see
how far we climb or how thankful we are to reach that certain place.
