To achieve anything in life, it is wise to set goals. Determine what you intend to do, and the steps necessary to be successful. Those who fly blind tend to crash.
Keep it simple if you want to see results. Being unrealistic means the dream will not exist outside of you. The fantasy always pales next to an actual experience.
When doing anything, it helps to have a plan. However, you need to adapt to changing circumstances. There is no formula for success, but there are guidelines.
If you can give up, then do so before starting. The shame is in not finishing what you have begun. If the whole heart is not in it, expect to only reach halfway.
Those who are successful make the best examples. Use what they did to plot your course. If you cannot follow the same steps, they can still serve as inspiration.
It takes awhile to get moving, and then you will pick up speed. Just keep pouring all of your energy into the task. Soon you will be racing to your destination.
Absolutely, I use simple goals as steps in achieving a larger dream that may seem unrealistic at first. Once your goals are clear the path from A to B requires all your heart and energy if your dream is to come to fruition.
ReplyDeleteThose who fail to plan, should plan to fail. What may seem impossible, just might take a great deal of work to accomplish. But making dreams a reality requires every bit of energy you can muster.
DeleteVery god advice for creatives, Don. It's all abut jumping in with both feet. I commend you on doing these people a service.
ReplyDeleteIt takes a full commitment, Tommy. Otherwise, you will just be stumbling about getting nowhere. If the undertaking is serious, you should take it seriously.
