The Better Go-Getter

Focus on prioritizing your day around your goal. Actively invest your time and energy into it every day. Instead of concentrating on the difficulties and obstacles you are facing or will face to achieve it, focus on the small steps you can make to bring you even a little closer to it. Ultimately, you will always get out what you put in so if you are busy putting in doubt, fear, or any kind of negative energy you will be just that, doubtful, fearful, and negative. Be as positive as possible. Focus less on how far you have to go, and more on how far you have come. Know what you want in your future but be grateful for what you already have. While every ambition requires that you set a goal, make a plan, and put the plan into action; remember to appreciate what you do have right now. Acknowledge that life is perfectly imperfect and even so, you are blessed and grateful. You may not have your dream job yet, but you are working. You may not have the man of your dreams, but being alone is better than being in an unhealthy relationship. You may not have a platform like Oprah, sing like Mariah, or a body like Sofia Vergara, but know that what you have, no matter how little it may be, they are blessings nonetheless. Consciously and actively show your appreciation for those things. Do not take them for granted. Be appreciative and happy with the many ways your life has been blessed thus far in addition to seeking more. Then, fearlessly go after your dreams and continue to make strides towards them daily.
