 Jim's Nausea about the word "Journey"

It is the first time a pictorial has evoked a Paradox Wisdom, but the one Jim Murray produced today had quite the dramatic effect at a personal level.  Jim describes the use of the word "Journey" as sickening people but for me it was an opportunity for me to think about my own use of the "Learning Journey" metaphor.  While it did not make me want to puke Jim's graphic did remind me of Mr. Creosote - which is the Monty Python character who vomits a lot.  It is in watching the hilarious Monty Python video that the word "Pathway" came to mind.  

Pathways is the new name for the new Toastmasters program which will launch at the end of this year or sometime next year.  My Toastmaster club represents my own OFFLINE learning pathway, just as what I engage here, Linkedin and various other sites is my ONLINE learning.  So it did not take rocket science for me to make the shift from Learning Journey to Learning Pathway.  In so doing it might remove some of the nostalgia with "journey" but it is a good shift :
