EP 577 - Emotionally Attach to the Goal, Not the Timeline
Description
Emotionally attach to the goal, not the timeline.
Being emotionally attached to the goal will feed your commitment and willingness to do what's required.
So, what's the problem with being emotionally attached to the timeline?
Most of the timelines people set are based upon wishes, not probabilities.
It's more of a "I really want this to happen by this date" type of thing.
It's a best guess... often an uninformed best guess.
With a little more information, some conversations with people who've achieved the goal, and reflection on one's current situation and resources...
A more accurate timeline can be determined.
Plus, having a realistic timeline can create a sense of urgency necessary to take action daily.
Then, if the timeline isn't hit, it can be realistically adjusted.
Emotional attachment to the goal will give fuel to see it to the end.
