Life is often measured by our achievements. Major achievements are like milestones that tell the story of our lives. The difference between fulfillment and frustration is often whether or not we achieve what we set to achieve. After all success is simply reaching our goals. How do we set and reach our goals?

Let's learn an important principle taught in Scripture. Moses instructed the people of Israel as they prepared to possess the Promised Land: “The Lord your God will drive out those nations before you, little by little. You will not be allowed to eliminate them all at once, or the wild animals will multiply around you” (Deut 7:22).

You can accomplish your goals little by little. If you try to do too much too fast you will create other problems, disrupt your life and quit. But you can do it little by little.
