“The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho is a story about a shepherd boy named Santiago, who is on a journey to find his “personal legend” or his life’s spiritual purpose. Along the way, Santiago runs into different individuals who teaches him the importance of following not only his heart, but the signs the universe lays out for him. By the end of his adventure, Santiago discovers treasures beyond his wildest dreams.

We are all Santiago, in a life quest to find what makes us whole or fulfilled in this world. Sometimes we get distracted, placing our dreams to the side due to current necessities or the fear of never achieving our goal. Santiago was faced with obstacles throughout his quest, but never loss sight. He picked up nuggets from each stop, utilizing lessons learned that brought him closer to his treasure.

“The Alchemist” teaches you that in chasing your dreams, you will have to confront fears head on to elevate, hold tight to hope when faced with adversity, focus on your personal goals disregarding societal influences, and believe in your inner self to find happiness. The story reminds us that even in our separate walks of life, we are ALL interconnected in this universe and everything happens for a reason. Never fret the comings and going’s of people, jobs, or things because each served its purpose and, in some way, helped you to the next chapter in your life. Appreciate the good times and learn from the bad ones.
