jackal focus in a battle is easy how do you keep focus in a long war i e long-term goals well that that that can definitely be true it can be pretty easy to focus on the battle that’s right in front of your face and when you’re doing that sometimes you can lose track of the the long-term goal but i want to have that that long-term goal so embedded in my mind that i never lose sight of it ever and those little tasks and projects and short-term goals that you tackle they need to lead toward that strategic victory winning the long war and we get very caught up in instant gratification we want results now we want the shortcut to the winner’s podium and sometimes you know when we don’t get that short-term glory that we want we lose track of those long-term goals and you you look up in in six weeks or in six months or in six years and you’ve made no progress none you never moved you might even be further from your goal than you were why why did you let that happen it’s because you lost sight of that long-term goal and at some point after you lose sight of that goal and years have gone by you think to yourself maybe i can’t maybe i can’t do it and so you give up and you let it fade and you settle you settle for mediocrity you settle for average you settle for oh well but no no don’t do that embed that long-term goal in your mind burn it into your soul think about it and write about it and talk about it and hang it up on your wall but most important do something about it do something about it every day every day do something that moves you toward that goal that keeps the goal alive and in sight and in focus however however small or insignificant that step might seem take it do it do that little piece make it happen because that goal isn’t going to achieve itself it’s all on you
