Focus on the Goal

What I have achieved so far is nothing relatively speaking. I have made no significant accomplishment and there are still things I should be good at doing.

To go where I want to go, it is essential that I go for my goals and believe I will achieve them. I must know what I have to do each day and have a winning attitude remembering that almost everything I want to do has been done before.

With goals, it is best to have a maximum of 1-2 main goals to focus on. This increases the likelihood of achieving them. 

Goals may change and some things that are important to me now may not be important to me in the future. I know that I have to keep my goals flexible and the possibilities open. I also endeavour to expand my perspective by doing things I am not good at and don't necessarily love, in order to behave better.

I have to remember to not dwell on the past, let anything get to me, or place unnecessary pressure on myself. Yesterday is history. The nights lying in bed crying about girls. The nights walking home alone talking to myself about finding the dream job and shouting in agony in the bathroom. This heartbreaking year of posting on sites and waiting but nothing happening. The number of interviews and interview practice. I have to re-frame the negative situations to something positive and see what I learnt.

I have to focus on what I can do. I have to learn from the past and pay heed to the lens of history. I have to be mindful of momentum. I have to remember what matters most to me and not let that get pushed aside.
