GOALS GOALS GOALS. Boring words BUT this an earth-shaking word that reverberates across our life. To complement GOALS, look out there, we're even drowning in a sea of self-development. Tons and tons of self-driven online courses, life coaches volunteering around and even the deluge of self-proclaimed gurus lording it all over social media, Meta FB, Tiktok, name it. They preach about longterm plans and even pitch via podcasts. BUT HOW's the state of our GOALS to date???
True, we are witnessing parade of perfectly optimized people. BUT WHEN you're just a regular person like you and me, trying to get by, it's hard NOT to feel q little cynical [especially WHEN we hit those unexpected bumps] WHERE does that lead us to? And NOT to badmouth the gurus, WHERE do they find time to sort of meditate for hours OR that sum of monies to fly to the 'jungle' to 'find themselves'???
NOT to feel negative, it feels easy to get the feeling that those self-improvement 'games' are rigged for people WHO started off the race with a huge advantage. BUT WHAT about the rest of us? The ones WHO ride the metro OR the bus, running small businesses, work demanding jobs and promise ourselves tons and tons of resolutions every January 1st, that the next upcoming year will offer us an immense sheet of sea change in our life???
Then that brings us back to GOALS GOALS GOALS. WHY CAN'T we find out WHY? Take some time to think WHAT does your ideal life look like? WHAT do you enjoy now and WHAT do you want to get rid of? Your true GOALS are the ones that align with that vision, right? In that manner, it will be easier and more enjoyable to achieve because they get powered by your GENUINE desire, and NOT triggered even by external pressures [that includes people and the prevailing circumstances that tend to influence you]π₯π₯π₯
Our takeaway: WHEN we buckle down to GOALS, let's make it REAL, dude. Once you have an idea, let your rational mind have a look. Is it realistic? Planning to negotiate a deal in a language you CAN'T even order a burger might be a stretch, right? YES YES yoww, your GOALS must challenge you and NOT set you up for failure. And definitely, NOT to precipitate your GOALS to fade. That CAN'T and MUSN'T be, dudeπ‘π‘π‘
