We Should Be Setting Goals
I love goals. I love setting them, and I love reaching, and achieving them. There is no better feeling than knowing that you’ve worked towards something and that you can now see the proof of your labour.
OVER REACHING
The problem I have with my goals, is that I tend to way over reach on what I can actually achieve. I have a tendency to try and spread myself way too thin, and this proves to be a stumbling block for me.
SET UP TO FAIL
Lately, I have had to admit that I just can’t carry on setting goals that mean that I’m basically setting myself up to fail with, because, let’s face it, there is also no worse feeling than knowing that you’ve failed to meet a goal.
So, where do I go from here?
I simply need to work out which goals are achievable, and which ones aren’t, and, more important than that, I need to decide to let those ones go, because all they’re doing in the long run, is hurting me.
I think the first big step for me here, was to admit that I am not superhuman, no matter what my brain would have me believe.
