Is there anything more maddening than working hard on a goal and running into constant obstacles that keep us from getting where we want to be? The past couple of weeks have been exactly like that for me. I have some big projects I'm working on, and every time I tried to progress to the next point, something would happen. My computer problems were the biggest part of it, but also other little obstacles kept me from getting from point A to point B.

I kept trying to find a way...

Goals – we have a love-hate relationship with goals. We love them because they are such a great idea and are a superb way to motivate us to achieve and then to evaluate our progress; but we hate them, because for much of the time, they go unattained and simply frustrate us. This isn't what goals should do!

Having been a Life Coach for many years now I would like to suggest some straightforward and practical techniques on how you can set goals you can achieve! After all,...

In this short article I'd like to discuss a certain kind of belief that holds many people - people who are quite capable and talented - back from reaching goals, realizing dreams, and becoming all that they can become. The concept of the "Absolute Presupposition" is central to this discussion. (The term was originally coined by the British philosopher R.G. Collingwood, in a somewhat different context.)

What is an absolute presupposition? For our purposes here we may...

"A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done" - Vince Lombardi

One reason why people succeed at accomplishing goals is through their determination to become successful. You must first be able to visualize where you are going before...

One of my favorite techniques for achieving goals is to use the word 'anyway' as often as necessary.

If you don't feel like doing something or start doubting whether the activity has any value, do it 'anyway' and then see what the results are later after you have completed the activity.

Some results can be seen or felt almost immediately. You reluctantly go for a walk but feel great as soon as you get home. Other results may take a week or so. You start eating less...

A fleeting moment can change your life.

Christopher Reeves had everything going for him - fame, fortune and best of all a loving wife and son. Enjoying his favorite sport, he fell off his horse. In a split second, his whole life changed! He is not alone.

In a moment, all dreams can be quashed.

A young man, full of promise gets into an industrial accident. It left him physically disabled. With a young family and the first baby on the way, how does he...

Life is nothing but an obstacle course, its all about getting through that obstacle course *efficiently* to your desired goal that most people seem to have a problem with.

And it's only normal to come across these obstacles in the pursuit of your goal.

It's kind of a test to see if you are worthy.

However, when these boundaries start to become a nuisance to the level of almost putting a stop to your goal(s); or worse, making one completely abandon...

IF NOT YOU THEN WHO

Success depends upon the labor and mental quality of a person. A person must know how to succeed in life. To achieve success one must be hard working. One has to attempt again and again for success and never shirk hard working. We should have daring and the spirit to succeed. We should not accept defeat at any cost. We will lose the battle of life if we feel defeated. We must be optimistic in life. Pessimistic people discourage themselves and are always...

It is interesting to note that most of society is free.  There is a percentage of the populous that is incarcerated for crimes against society.  So too, are there people who live in political cultures that do not value the freedom of its' people.  Nevertheless, the majority of the people in the world live in relative freedom.  They can choose whom they marry, what they do for a living, and where they live.  Most societies allow their people to move around freely...
