Milestone is Touchstone

from Self Improvement

"Touchstone" refers to a fundamental or quintessential part or feature of something, serving as a standard or criterian for evaluation. It can also refer to a stone used to test the quality of goods. In a broader context, it signifies a benchmark or yardstick against which other things can be measured or assessed. The historical term milestone is still used today, even though the “stones” are typically metal highway location markers and in most countries use kilometres and metres rather than miles and yards. Also found today are more closely spaced signs containing fractional numbers, and signs along railways, beaches and canals. “Remember to celebrate milestones as you prepare for the road ahead.” — Nelson Mandela “Pain is the touchstone of all growth.” — Bill W. “In the only way that pain can be truly remembered through a new pain.” — Monica Denise Brown “We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret and disappointment.” — Jim Rohn “The most difficult days have been the ones I have had to spend correcting a mistake. We’re all human and we make errors inspite of the pain we take not to. It’s important to take ownership of the situation and to work to make it right.” — Author: Mark Mason Milestones are touchstones that mark significant events in life, whether personal or professional.
