Love Your Goal
For several weeks we have been planning a trip to Ohio. During our planning we have come up with a variety of options for travel.
Drive from New Mexico to Ohio and back
Drive to Denver, fly to Ohio, fly back to Denver and drive to New Mexico
Fly from New Mexico to Ohio and back to New Mexico
Rent a car, drive to Ohio via Texas and fly back to New Mexico
Rent an RV, drive to Ohio and drive back to New Mexico
Every option has its positives and negatives.
Regardless of the option we pick, our mission will eventually be completed.
Of these options, do you know what is the most important consideration in accomplishing our goal?
None of them.
The most important consideration is the goal of traveling to Ohio.
Seems kind of silly to say, but it is true!
Too many times when we are pursing goals, we fall in love with the plan and we forget the goal. We pour over how we should accomplish our goals and all our options lead us being stuck, suffering from paralysis by analysis.
So, fall in love with your goals and in like with your plans.
Pick and option and go for it.
