You could be different from me, and be a total achiever. You decide you want to do something, you figure out the steps, and then you do it. Every time.

Or..you might be a person who has visions of what they want to accomplish, places you want to travel to,  a fitness level you want to achieve, a language you want to learn but it’s not happening.

I suppose there are ways to achieve that are as successful as there are people who make them work, but there are many people who stall and putter out at the vision stage,  I suspect those people are the majority.

The accomplishment of big goals is described as “Eating an Elephant” which none of us can do in one sitting (have you seen the size of elephants !, I have a hard time with big plate of spaghetti . )

You achieve the eating of an elephant, and the accomplishment of big goals in small digestible chunks,  this is just an illustration – no elephant recipes to follow, I promise !

The secret to Achievement is……..Starting where you are. Start. Start. Start. Think of anything you want to achieve, there must be a small step you do today. Take that first step, and work on the next small bite tomorrow and keep going.  Write down your starting date, keep track every day you take another “bite” – set a goal of 5 days nonstop progress,  and then keep setting those goals.

Start where you are, and keep a written record; huge how both these work together.  Live your life with as few regrets as you can, and count your blessings, often.

There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting.   – Buddha
