意味
To make progress with one's goals.
文化的背景
The phrase is deeply tied to 'Sisu'. It's not just about moving; it's about moving despite the cold, the dark, or the hardship. In Finnish workplaces, 'mennä eteenpäin' often refers to flat hierarchies where everyone is encouraged to develop their skills. Influencers often use #eteenpäin to signal a new chapter in their lives, such as a move to a new city or a lifestyle change. Aki Kaurismäki's films often feature characters who stoically 'mennä eteenpäin' despite absurdly bad luck.
