Think about this. Pick one goal that's important to you.
Are you closer to achieving this goal or are you farther away from achieving this goal, this year vs. last year (this month vs. last month; this week vs. last week; today vs. yesterday). Be honest with yourself. Talk to yourself. Look at yourself in the mirror as you talk to yourself. What do you see? Do you see a person that's fighting to stay in the "game" or a person that has excused themselves to the sidelines.
If you're Closer to achieving this goal, ask yourself why? List at least 5 things you did to get you closer to your goal:
- ________________________
- ________________________
- ________________________

If you're farther away from achieving this goal, again ask yourself why? List at least 5 things you failed to do that slowed your progress towards your goal:
- ________________________
- ________________________
- ________________________

LOOK AT YOU LISTS. WHAT DO YOU SEE?
PICK OTHER GOALS AND DO THE LISTS. WHAT DO YOU SEE?
SEE ANY PATTERNS DEVELOPING...
This is simple and hard at the same time. Seems simple to just do more of the things that lead to success and less of the things that lead to failure.
The question becomes...How do we get motivated to do the things that lead to success.
The answer is to live in the present and in the NOW! Everyone that's got to where they are, had to start from where they were. Most people at first see the goal and get discouraged because they don't see results quick enough.
Or they become preoccupied with the small set backs and failures that we all have when we set out to achieve something.
WHAT CAN YOU DO RIGHT NOW TO MOVE YOU CLOSER TO ONE OF YOUR GOALS.
WHAT CAN YOU ELIMINATE RIGHT NOW THAT HAS BEEN GETTING IN THE WAY OF YOU ACHIEVING ONE OF YOUR GOALS.
FIND OUT WHAT'S IMPORTANT NOW...AND DO IT!
