Don’t Focus on the End, Focus on Your Next Step.
One of the biggest mistakes in achieving long-term goals is spending more time on what you want to be than on what you should be doing right now. Stay motivated by only thinking about the next step.
Breaking your long-term goal into smaller steps to accomplish helps make it more manageable and gives you the next step to focus on. Even if you are a patient person, at some point you are likely to be frustrated by the slow progress. Pondering the next obstacle to overcome will dispel that frustration and help you feel more successful.
