"Accomplishments will prove to be a journey, not a destination." — Dwight D. Eisenhower
If
you want to reach your goal it is important to look at your accomplishments
along the way. Most goals have challenges that need to be overcome to be
successful. Each hurdle that you overcome gets you one step closer to your
goal. Ongoing data analysis and regular celebration of achievement are
essential components of the continuous-improvement model. Recognition of
successes and refocusing of goals lay the path for moving forward.
If
big picture success seems too lofty of a goal, focus on what you can achieve
each day. Take
time to recall what you accomplished and contributed to the success of the goal.
Keep focused on that ultimate goal and you will get there with help along the
way.
Instead
of waiting to celebrate the final achievement of your objectives, seek small
ways to celebrate each little victory. Rewards remind you that you are coming
along and achieving your goal. These small rewards will spur you on to more
action that will ultimately lead you to the doorstep of the destiny you
deserve. Overcoming the challenges in front of you will create a sense of pride
and joy in your accomplishments.
Stay
motivated and reach your goals by celebrating small achievements along the way and
remember to enjoy the process along the journey!
Tim,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the post.
I have a slightly cynical (British) view.
I am not convinced that making steps towards your goal will automatically result in success. There may well be others making bigger steps faster.
But what is without doubt is that if you don't make a start it isn't going to happen.
So the only way to succede at anything is to make a start and keep at it.

I see your point James. I agree with your last line. I think though it is helpful to recognize accomplishments along the way to the goal. It helps rejuvenate you after a frustrating task.
