It is common to see people getting excited, motivated and they set goals to achieve amazing results in their life. However, setting goal is just the first step in pursuing what you want in your life. It does not mean that after you set your goals, you definitely will achieve what you want.
It is too, common to see that people setting goals, but in the end, they still are not achieving their goals. Why is this so? First you will have to understand that success will not come automatically. It is not like after you set your goal, one day you wake up in the morning and you found yourself to be the CEO of a big company. It is not like one day you wake up and there is a BMW in your car porch. Success will not fall from the sky.
You will have to put in real effort and commitment to make your goals come true. It is the same in everything, without taking any action towards your goals; you will not achieve what you want. Below are some of the common reasons why people fail to achieve their goals…
Not Setting an Excited Goal
You know, you can set all kinds of goals in your life. However, if your goals are not excited enough, they will not drive you into taking action. Think about it, will you stay up late every night just to make an extra $100? I don’t think you will. How about if we are talking about earning an extra $10,000? Will you stay up late because in the next month, you are going to make this amount of money? The answer is clear. So you see, your goals must be excited enough to drive you into action.
Not Having a Burning Reason
Many people know that they should set goals, but they never really actually know why they need to achieve their goals. Ask yourself, why do you need it so badly? If you want something so badly, you will somehow do everything it takes to achieve it. Often, it is the reason behind your goals that will drive you into action. Therefore, if your reasons are not strong enough, you will lose the drive very fast. That is why most people get excited in the beginning, but after a few days, they will lose the drive. I hope you know why you want to achieve your goals.
Not 100 Percent Committed to Their Goals
Yes, another big common reason, people are not 100 percent committed to their goals. I know you want to achieve your goals, I know you want to be a millionaire, I know you want to lose weight, and I know you want to be successful. But, have you ever asked yourself, are you 100 percent committed to your goals? If you are not 100 percent committed, you will get distracted by your surrounding, and you will procrastinate. Soon, you will lose the drive. Once you are 100 committed, you will stay out of your comfort zone, and do what it takes to achieve your goals.
As you can see now, the 3 above are the common reasons that people fail to achieve what they want even after they have set their goals. You have to understand, success is not an easy task and you are not going to achieve it in just 24 hours. It takes time and you need to pour in real effort. So stay focused in your goals and take massive action today.
