Achieving a goal with one try, rarely happens. The truth, it usually takes many more attempts before you can hit that bull’s-eye of success.
On the road to fulfilling your goal, you may face obstacle after obstacle… after obstacle. And that’s OK. It is what it is. Some may cause you to stumble and fall. But you have to get back up. Never stop trying to achieve your goal and never let temporary defeat stop you from permanent failure. Like the old saying goes, “Winners never quit and quitters never win.” Quitting can never be an option.
If you’re feeling a little discouraged on the road to reaching your goal, these thoughts might give you a reason to push forward:
1. Anything worth doing is difficult.
2. Things will often go wrong. But don’t worry, you’ll learn from the whirlwinds and push forward.
3. You’re closer than you were.
4. Even if you move slowly, you’re moving forward.
5. You may be only one step from achieving your goal.
6. Realize success is only failure turned inside out.
7. If you can imagine it, then you can achieve it.
8. Think of Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, & Walt Disney.
9. Some of the most successful people encountered hard times along their journeys.
10. Know, this is your goal to fulfill, no one else’s.
11. Remember how bad you wanted it.
12. Think about how much your goal brought meaning and purpose to your life.
13. You are powerful beyond measure.
14. Believe there’s greatness within you.
