This year I have set myself an ambitious goal. A goal that is so large that on the face of it seems impossible.
I want this year to be the year I change my life.
I want this year to be my best year yet.
I want this year to be different.
Sound familiar?
Maybe you have set yourself ambitious goals in the past. Whether it be to get fit and have a beach-ready body by summer. To finally save up and travel the world as you have always wanted.
Have you ever managed to achieve those goals?
I didn’t think so.
If you are one of the select few who always manage to achieve their goals (other than never setting another goal) then congratulations, you have won the game of life and this article is not for you.
The problem for most of us is that we set goals without a system.
A goal without a system to achieve it is just wishful thinking.
The fact that we have set a goal gives us a false sense of progress. We know what we want out of life and we are finally going to grab the bull by the horns and get the life we want.
Goals give us an image of a brighter future where we have achieved everything we have wanted and we are finally happy.
