It’s
a wise idea to break any goal down into smaller chunks, but this doesn’t automatically
make us exempt from sabotaging ourselves further along the path.
To
succeed, we not only need a plan, or structure, but we need to be attentive to
our needs. If we don’t nourish our
ideas, and indeed ourselves, then we can trip up at the first hurdle.
Being
diligent and planning ahead, or putting in the effort when it’s needed, can be the difference between
success and failure.
However,
being determined could be mistaken as perfectionism. Could you cope with a setback? Would you fall
apart when faced with a failure? If you can’t
accept that it’s okay not to be perfect,
then you may risk creating a huge barrier to achieving your goals.
