What is a goal? A goal is an idea of the future or desired result that a person or a group of people envision, plan and commit to achieve. Do you ever feel like your sleepwalking through life with no real idea of what you want? Or, perhaps you know exactly what you want to achieve, but have no idea how to get there. Nobody sets out with a plan to fail, but so often, people let obstacles get in the way of their success. Goals are the first step towards planning for the future. Name one successful person who hasn't had to overcome a hurdle in their life. You can't. Even the most wealthy in the world will tell you, more money means more problems. Developing mental tools to be more resilient and exercise your creative problem solving will help you achieve your goals even when it's complicated. Remember that Every little step you take matters. Every moment is one you can use or waste. Every resource you encounter can form a part of your toolbox. Every innovation you make can be a stepping stone on the way forward. Every belief you honor can elevate others. And every moment of Evolution contributes to your legacy. Having goals and applying them as you manage your life will help you achieve the life of your dreams. Some of life's most satisfying experiences are those that involve staying focused on a goal until you reach it. It's true, you'll still experience times when, no matter how hard you try, you're facing obstacles blocking the way. Without forgetting that issues come in all shapes and sizes. Don't get stuck in planning mode What, take action. If you are persistent, you will get started. If you are consistent, you will keep going. You've got to put in the work along with committing wholeheartedly to goals. When you feel stuck remind yourself that all of your hard work will be worth it in the end. Consider how you will reward yourself when you win if you need extra encouragement to get started. The truth is there will be obstacles to block the pathways toward your goals. But like every successful person before you, if you can identify the sources of the blocks, you can develop solutions. What is an obstacle? An obstacle is something material or nonmaterial, that stands in the way of literal or figurative progress.
