Why Goals are SO Hard to Achieve by Jane Powell "Goals that you believe in are the ones that really count." Does the effort you put into achieving your goals feel more like a burden, than a welcome challenge? This is a sign that your goals are not your own. You may be trying to live up to the ideals of your spouse, friends or parents. You may even be trying to live up to society's version of success and perfection. Goals set for you by others may not be realistic. And, the more you strive for goals that are far from your heart, the greater your dissatisfaction and frustration may become. For you to feel happy inside and out, you must pursue what is important to you. Never think that what you want is not good enough. It is! As you set and achieve goals that really matter, you will feel more successful, positive and optimistic. If you give a part of yourself to life, the part you receive back will be so much greater. Never regret the past, but learn by it. Never lose sight of your dreams; a person who can dream will always have hope. Believe in yourself; if you do, everyone else will. You have the ability to accomplish anything, but never do it at someone else's expense. If you can go through life loving others, you will have achieved the greatest success of all. Judy LeSage Now is enough Some people always have enough, and other people never have enough. The difference isn't in what they possess, but in what they need. There are people with warehouses full of possessions who still don't have enough. And there are people with almost no possessions who have plenty. When you have a strong sense of need, it gnaws at you constantly and pulls you down. That's much different than being confident in having enough and enjoying the peaceful power it brings. Yes, there are desires you have that are not yet fulfilled. But do not give up control of your fulfillment by diminishing those desires into needs. Instead of needing what you desire, treasure the desire itself and the opportunity to fulfill that desire. Allow yourself the powerful confidence that comes from having enough, and from that confidence will come even more. Whatever you have now is enough for now. Joyfully, thankfully, peacefully accept the wholeness and completeness of your present abundance. Ralph Marston
