Setting goals feels great. It makes us feel hopeful because we have something to look forward to. It is motivational at the start, until it becomes the very reason we become overwhelmed.

When we set our goals, we are often hard on ourselves while on the journey. We rush to change our habits/lifestyles, then falter if we don’t keep up. Or we expect to magically have everything perfect when we get there while we sacrifice our health along the way. Or worse, we realize  mid-struggle that we have set goals that are far from what we truly, personally value.

We often make mistakes in setting our goals and that’s okay! This is where we can learn and give ourselves another chance.

“You’re not failing. You’re just trying new things.” -Katie Hardy

It’s loving the Journey

What you need to remember is that you have to acknowledge that it is a process. It is who you become along the journey that matters most. And that your goals should be aligned to what you truly value and not what other people expect of you. Because if you didn’t set that goal for yourself, then you wouldn’t be learning the potential that you have and grow into your self-worth. (See also how your mindset can transform who you are.)
