Goals Without Obstacles?

This is one of the realities of life- Every time anyone sets a goal, there are also going to be obstacles. Obstacles of "I don't have enough time, money, energy, resources etc."

Obstacles can feel more real than goals; they seem to have weight and dimension. Because goals are further away and self defined, they may seem "less real". Please don't fall for the optical illusion.

Once you've identified the barriers to achieving a goal, it's often difficult to stop focusing on them rather than the goal itself. The reason is simple? the obstacles are closer to you. It's important that you learn to look up and over them so you can focus on the prize.

"Act as if" you have already achieved them, keep accessing the resources available to you and keeping moving forward. Remember that the things you're working towards are just as real as the items you need to overcome.

Think of one small thing this post may inspire you to do differently. Apply this inspiration to your scheduled activities today. Make it more real by writing your answer in your journal or on a post-it note.

Best of health and warmest regards, Paul Radkowski
