How Do We Straight Forward Towards Our Goals?

Who are you and why are you here? It may seem like a straightforward question. Most would answer by giving their name without giving it much thought. However, on deeper reflection, do you really understand who you are?
Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
Invest In Yourself
Are you busy looking for success everywhere except the one place you can truly find it? Does life seem like a futile chasing after the rainbow?
Try Something New
Does the thought of doing a new thing scare you? Are you too comfortable with how things are?
Never Quit
Does it seem like despite your best efforts things never work out as you planned? Are you in despair because just when it seems you are making progress something goes wrong? At such times it is easy to feel defeated and to give up, but what can you do to stay on top of things?
Risk taking
Are you playing it too safe and getting nowhere fast? Are you stuck in the comfort zone and just hoping to have a mistake-free, loss-free and stress-free life? It may sound like the good life, but it is actually the “no-life” way to go.
A warning to optimists
Are you so blinded by your optimism that it’s keeping you from making real progress in your life? Could the very fact that you are so positive in your outlook be a liability rather than an asset? That could all depend on whether or not you are making the best use of your current reality.
Burning Your Bridges
Is there a lack of progress in your life because as soon as you start one thing you drop it and start something else? Can having too many options become a drawback rather than a positive thing?
The Necessity of Wealth
Are you afraid to say that you desire to be rich? Does it seem like everyone is going around behaving like they shun wealth and yet they are trying very hard to get wealthy? The lack mentality is something that is often regarded as humility, but it is actually the cause of much misery.
The Call to Greatness
Are some people born destined for greatness and others for mediocrity? Is great success and achievement determined by genetics and inborn talent?
The advancing Man
Are things routine and unchallenging for you? It could be that you have gotten so proficient at what you are doing and that may be hindering your progress.
