Journey Framework: Set clear goals as milestones
An important reason for setting clear goals within our journey is to have milestones identified along the route towards our destiny of being the best we can be, as well as to be able to pace ourselves accordingly.
As we are teleological beings, meaning we are goal-directed and need to keep seeking after goals for the sake of our wellbeing. It is, therefore, within our nature to want the reach goals and to have reached them at a specific time. I have noticed that having committed milestones is good, but having them dated as well is even better, as this seems to attract auspicious conditions and circumstances to realise them at a specific point in time.
The main benefit of having goals, is that they endow you with the ability to remain focused and directed to the outcome and not get intimidated and subsequently trapped by those “Frightful Things” i.e. obstacles along the way. It’s about acknowledging them only in the belief that resolutions to those obstacles are imminent via appropriate attendance to the matter. It’s just one of those things within a journey.
So given your journey today, where are you at: dealing with those frightful things along your way? Are they bogging you down, or do you remain focussed as well as giving them appropriate attention, but only to the extent of what they deserve?
As always ... it is your choice.
