Life is nothing but an obstacle course! It's all about getting through that obstacle course to your desired goal. It's only normal to encounter obstacles in the pursuit of your goal. Are we worth it to achieve it for ourselves?
When these obstacles start to become a nuisance to the point of almost putting a stop to your goal(s); or worse, making one completely abandon his/her goal, one must take action and think things through.
So, with that said, here are some helpful, tested pointers that will keep your attention focused in achieving any goal that you put your mind to.
Think Positive
This means: Do not quit. Especially when one is midway in working for a goal, there should be no room for quitting.
To quit is tantamount to going back to the starting line of goal accomplishment. That is time, energy, money, and a whole lot of things wasted and lost. It is more costly to quit than to find a solution to the problem, not to mention the frustration one feels. Keep positivity in mind! Attitude is a powerful tool we can use to overcome any how or it could be powerfully destructive. Remember, happiness is a choice.
2. Keep a clear, open and tense-free mind
Always be ready to receive new ideas. Focus and concentrate. Think in a wide scale manner and always be open to new options to eliminate the particular obstacle you are currently dealing with. Don't ask for less problems, ask for more skills.
3. Persist and Persevere
Be sure to exhaust every possibility, even to the point of trial and error, just to be sure that there is a solution to correct the problem you're dealing with. There are always endless possibilities to uncover. Who knows what you might discover by staying persistent? Who knows what you might discover in yourself?
4. Simulate
Try to picture inside your head a possible solution to help overcome and/or solve the obstacle that's setting you back. Imagination goes along way! Try to envision ourselves already overcoming the obstacles. What did we do to get there? Who helped us? What needs to be done? Mental rehearsal is a great tool we can utilize to attract, practice, and affirm the person we want to be.
5. Ask for Help
If all fails, get assistance from others you know who are more knowledgeable on the work being done. For real, it's okay to ask for help! There are people out here that can save us years of our lives because they have been in a similar situation. Go out and read the books, ask others in the field, attend the sessions, and get the help we need. They can be a mentor for us and guide us in directions of clarity. Even if sometimes their suggestions might not necessarily be the exact ones you were hoping to hear, but they may trigger some NEW ideas in finding the right solution to your problem.
