55. Goals

It’s easy to get carried away.

The new year is upcoming and people often decide to make crazy goals and never reach them.

Insight with application = frustration.

I’m all for setting resolutions but without being specific, having intentional, and being held accountable, taking on these ventures will be hard.

In your mind, your need to accept that this new goal you are partaking in is not just a temporary thing but rather your normal life.

Take for example you want to go to the gym 3 times a week. If you’ve never been before and have no clue what to do this is going to be hard. You need to find a gym, commit and pay for it, get a plan, then schedule what days you are going to go. You stick to it no matter what because this is now your new normal.

Success in goals requires an understanding that it won’t be fun all the time but you will still go because that’s what you do.

My goals are hard but I know I will make them. They are in my reach because I know the formula- I just need to turn up.

I have people to keep me accountable, tick lists to give me motivation, and post-it notes to remind me.

Goals must be embodied rather than to remain distant dreams- get after yours now.
