Right now a year might as well be Mars. Nevertheless, this is a good reminder that smaller goals also need to be tied to a larger goal. It would be useful to step back and figure out what I can accomplish in the next 90 days. I have a vague picture of this, but you remind me that 90 day challenges have been helpful in the past. Thanks for the good stuff. I’m in a situation where I am mostly going just day to day and week to week. Right now a year might as well be Mars.

However, even when chunked and written down, I sometimes experience a will-power short circuit. Any observations on keeping the will power cranked up to "git er dun?" Thanks!

It’s a Vision or a Dream. Period. And i have some smoking hot Visions and Dreams! the rest are goals that WILL happen in the next 180 days ~ unless they don’t (: Personally… anything that is more than 180 days out is no longer a goal for me.

One must also develop the faith and belief either in themsleves or in God-that they will accomplish what they set out to do. If you can BELIEVE it-you can ACHIEVE it. Conversely, if you don't believe you WILL-more likley than not you WON'T. Best- Wayne Very good post-

It's all about the milestones which should become more finish lines and should be recognized and celebrated to give you the push. Keep it up!
