Goal Setting – 1 Thing to Avoid, 1 Thing to Do-Part 3

By Anthony D Carter

Pitfall: Lack of Persistence. Just when success is attainable most people quit. All of the work, time and money that went into that goal attempt gets wiped away by a decision made at a low point in the journey. When you are faced with difficult times during your quest to hit your goals it easy to contemplate quitting. Everything and everybody is telling you to back off. You are being told that you cannot do it. You entertain the repercussions of what would happen if you cave and listen to the negative messages.

If you decide to quit then at that moment everything that you worked for is thrown away. Not only do you fail at that goal you inadvertently set a pattern for losing in the future as well. Quitting becomes a habit.

Solution: After you have begun then you need to commit to sticking with your efforts to achieve your goal. You cannot give in, give up or give out. Do not give yourself the option of quitting. If you believed you could do it before you started and your plan is solid then you owe it to yourself to hang in there until you hit your goal.

Sometimes what seems to be real isn’t. Just because you feel too tired to go on does not mean that you cannot go on. Press on. Just take one more step towards what you want to accomplish. Then after that take another step.

The fatigue will pass and you will find yourself another step closer to success. Eventually you will achieve your objective. You will be so proud of yourself for having fought through the resistance in order hit your goal.
