What Great Goals Are you Working Towards (and what\u2019s holding you back?)<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

In this post I\u2019d like to ask you<\/em> an important question:<\/p>\n

What great goals are you working towards (and what\u2019s holding you back?)<\/strong><\/p>\n

So technically there might be two questions in there \u2013 sue me<\/p>\n

Having great goals <\/a>you\u2019re working towards is one of the most powerful motivators<\/a> to achieve great things \u2013 it\u2019s also one of the main reasons I started this blog. I\u2019d love to help you achieve yours.<\/p>\n

Later in this post I\u2019ll ask you to share what your goals are, and what you think is holding you back<\/strong>, but first let me tell you 4 reasons why these two questions are so important:<\/p>\n

4 Reasons why sharing your goals and roadblocks are so important:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

1)<\/strong><\/span> The very act of deciding what your goals and admitting your roadblocks are, in themselves the first steps towards achieving them.<\/strong> It makes forces you to clarify your thoughts and focus on what you want to achieve most<\/strong><\/p>\n

2)<\/strong><\/span> Admitting these goals and roadblocks in public gives us you a sense of accountability. It turns a pie in the sky idea into an inspirational dream worth pursuing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the very reason why I share my life goals<\/a> and crazy targets <\/a>I\u2019m working towards so publically \u2013 it forces me to focus and makes we want to achieve them even more.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s really empowering and it only works \u2013 I highly recommend you try it<\/p>\n

3)<\/strong><\/span> Sharing your goals and roadblocks may inspire someone else reading this<\/strong> – to do something amazing.<\/p>\n

No matter what stage you\u2019re at, or what trouble you\u2019re facing \u2013 rest assured someone else out there is experiencing something similar to you.<\/strong> Your goals and roadblocks can help give them the inspiration they need.<\/p>\n

4)<\/strong><\/span> Sharing these will help me, and others reading this, help you achieve your goals \u2013 so I can offer advice and share my experience to better help you reach your goals<\/strong>. I\u2019d love to help.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re all here to do awesome things like startup a business, change the world or journey into space. By helping each other we can all get there faster<\/strong><\/p>\n

So let\u2019s hear it.<\/p>\n

If you have a minute right now<\/em><\/strong>, I\u2019d love to know what you\u2019re working toward at the moment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What are you trying to change about your life? What\u2019s your biggest and most pressing goal? Are you Starting a business \u2013 or something else completely? What\u2019s keeping you from achieving that? What are you frustrated by? What makes you want to give it all in sometimes?<\/p>\n
