I'd argue a quest can have the same pitfalls of a goal. That is you see it's so far off and do nothing about it on a continuous basis.
Process VS goal always depends on the person.
If someone has a goal, and everything around them is distracting them from reaching the finish line, the a quest would be irritating.
Opposite is true too, a goal might have been the goal to start, but life changed and now they're chasing something that doesn't personally matter any more.
- atoav 2y agoI often get asked by people how I learned to do X, where X is a skill that takes time and dedication, be it designing electronic circuits, playing musical instruments, programming etc. The answer is that you need to enjoy learning, because when you learn a thing most of the time you suck at it and most of the time there is something that you can't do or don't know. The person who is writing books because they like to learn about the universe, humanity and themselves will likely become better at writing books than the person who ticks off "Written a book" on their bucket list. The way I look at it, if you want to become really good it needs to be a quest with a many small goals sprinkled on top. The quest needs to be something you could do literally forever (e.g. play music, write code) and the goals could be single projects, etc. But for me the goals are just a means to do the quest, not the other way around.
