Your post was very useful to me, since I work hard every day on building habits but I’m not always successful, since I place hard goals to achieve, and at the end I’m not capable on doing anything. But it’s true, I should have in mind the easiest step on my way to reach what I want, and then, work on it slowly.
Thanks a lot for this!!
I think goals are only useful as far as they inform what strategies and daily tasks to perform. When goals are big, they can often take focus away from the small efforts that in the end are what accomplish goals over time. Use goals for planning steps, then focus on making sure each step are done properly :)
