Achieving a goal.

 

Last week, Jessica was feeling stuck.  Here’s what happened next…

Jessica was listening to a podcast and learned about goal resistance.  She realized that her brain was just trying to protect her from feeling stressed or scared. But she didn’t want to listen to that voice anymore. She wanted to write her book!

So, she tried something different. Instead of thinking about writing a whole book, she decided to write for just 10 minutes a day. That’s it—just 10 minutes. It felt so small that her brain didn’t even argue with her.

At first, it didn’t seem like much. But those 10 minutes started to add up. The more she wrote, the more confident she felt. And guess what? The scary feeling went away! Jessica started to enjoy writing again, one small step at a time.

Before she knew it, she had a whole bunch of pages written. She couldn’t believe how much she got done just by starting small.

Jessica realized that the trick to reaching her goals wasn’t about working harder or finding more time. It was about making the goal feel easy and doable. One tiny step at a time.

Here’s a great quote about achieving a goal:

“Little by little, one travels far.” – J.R.R. Tolkien

If you could, please take a minute and think of one thing that you could do now.
