Coming closer every day to a dream is probably the most fulfilling feeling a person can have. knowing that all that hard work paid off beautifully and you are proud of your achievements. Although, only a hand full of people really go all the way.
People see life goals as an obsession at the beginning stages but for some reason it fades away gradually when obstacles appear throughout the journey. Obstacles come in different forms- stressful jobs, intemperance , unexpected changes, impatience etc.The reason why people fail gets blamed on these obstacles.
I became infatuated with why the majority of the population love to talk about their dreams and life goals more often than actual showing what they have achieved. I use to be one of those that just couldn't stop chatting away regarding what my plans were for the future.
Those years went by very quickly and I did not achieve what I promised myself and others. The worse feeling was that everyone I told expected me to fail. Wondering why? I unfortunately built up a reputation amongst friends and family of having an "All talk but no walk" personality. That is one of the most common reasons why people fail with their goals-Not enough action.
The day when I changed my way of thinking was when I read a book by Napoleon Hill: "Think and Grow Rich" and I have never looked back again. I recognized the biggest problem that an individual has is:You are your own worst enemy!
I also understand now why an individual stops attempting to reach success. It is easy to tell others to change but it is the hardest thing to change yourself! Our minds are deceived by routines and bad habits. When obstacles get in the way, we get over the first one but we are not ready for the second one and that is another reason why people fail-Not being prepared!
How many times have you said to yourself with great passion: "I will reach my life goals that I have set out today" and then only to find yourself back at the start point a couple of months later? Why does this happen to the majority of the human race?
Excitement gets us going! To have a desire and to see yourself reaching those life goals in a minute's silence, is everything. Although that excitement wears off and leaves you only with what you know best-the old routine. Falling back into those habits again is why people fail with their life goals-It is too comfortable to try differently.
What do you need to do?
If you are going to run a marathon in six months, will you only practise the first three weeks and then wait until the race? No, you will start running one mile for the first week and then two miles for the second week until you can run 26 miles comfortably and consistently.
How will you get to that 26 miles?
By writing down the exact date of the marathon and breaking it down what needs to be achieved daily to reach the overall goal. What you have in front of you is a plan but not a full proof plan. Again, this is why people fail...they do one thing great but the other important part very poorly.
What is next?
Writing down what sort of obstacles will get in your way up till the marathon day and what you are planning to do when that happens. Be prepared for the unexpected. The journey to your life goals only becomes an easy ride when you are prepared.
