Tried & True Formula for Achieving Goals

 
Tried & True Formula for Achieving Goals
by Jane Powell

“Do you set goals then fail to achieve them?”

Too many failed attempts may lead to frustration.
Eventually, you either stop setting goals or surrender to the failures that overcome you. Overtime, avoiding disappointment becomes easier than setting new goals, altogether. Your heart wonders, what’s the use in trying?
Let your next goal be different.
Before you start, break your ultimate goal into smaller goals.
This way you’re placing your expectations of success on your immediate goal,
rather than the whole project.
By breaking down your goal in to bite size pieces,
the whole can be achieved much more easily.
With each milestone, you feel energized and motivated to keep on going.
Instead of being stressed, frustrated, and disappointed, you can now feel good,
because you have a doable method to achieve your goals that works like magic!
 

As we grow up, we start to obsess that our families,
Homes, cars and jobs need fixing,  It's true that some
Tweaking here and there may be in order; but this
Kind of focus may make you dwell on what is missing in
Your life.  "If only I had....." It's the internal dialogue
That makes that peace of mind so elusive.

Only when you feel thankful for something, can you
Become more fulfilled and peaceful.
Accept what you have and where you are with gratitude.

Feel thankful and you will start to feel more peaceful.
 

 

It doesn't do much good when you appreciate the value of a moment only after that moment has passed. By that time, it's really too late.
Instead, see the value of each moment while it is here.
Live and experience that value while you still can.
The biggest regrets are for opportunities missed,
for the things you could have done but didn't.
Choose to deal in action rather than in regret.
Take the opportunity presented by each moment as the moment arrives.
Dive into the richness before it fades away.
Life is filled with great abundance.
But the abundance can't be saved for later unless you live it now.
Live it now, and make the most of it while it's here.
And then, though the moment will soon pass, you'll always have its value.
