[[:encoded, "Today we are talking about 4 Tips for Helping You to Stick To Your Goals, so you have the highest probability of achieving them in the timeframe you desire.\n\nWe’ve all been there before…we find a goal that inspires us and we commit to doing the work…until life derails us. Whether it was that vacation, your assistant suddenly quits, or death in the family, the truth is life sometimes distracts us from our goals. Dealing with the disruption is one thing, getting back on track can be another.\n\nOkay, Let’s get going with the 4 tips to help you stick to your goals so you can get back on track and stay on track. \n\nTip #1: Focus on the Reward - Not the Work\nWise sages advise us to “be in the moment,” but let’s face it - you don’t always feel like running that last mile. You’re human; sometimes you lose your motivation in the middle of having to “do the work.”\n\nIf you’re losing your motivation, switch your focus on the reward. Focus on the good feelings of having accomplished your goal and how much easier it will be the next time because you will have broken through another limiting belief.\n\n“We only learn our limits by going beyond them.” ~Unknown\n\nTip #2: The Have-To’s Sometimes Turn into the Want-To’s\nThe work involved with achieving goals can feel like a “have-to” in the beginning, but they often turn into a “want-to” by the end of the process. They become a positive habit - a healthy way of being - while the work part eventually melts away.\n\nThis happens because it’s not always about the end result - it’s about the person you become as a result of the process.\n\nWhen you learn a new way of living - a way of living that better represents and supports your true potential - things that used to be a “have-to” transform into a “want-to.”\n\n“Conquer your bad habits or they will conquer you.” ~Charles A. Jaffe\n\nTip #3: It’s Who You Become in the Process\nThe person you woke up as today may not be the same person you wake up as tomorrow - or the day after that - or next week - or ten years from now.\n\nWhile it’s impossible to predict exactly who you’ll be in the future, it’s a safe bet that you will not be the exact same person. \n\nLife is a process of constant change and transformation. Each day we learn more about ourselves, which results in greater clarity of our true desires. The path between where we are and where we want to be becomes more clear and focused, creating a deep and focused desire to see the process through. \n\nSetting goals - and the work involved with achieving them - is not so much about the end result, as much as a deep, and often indefinable, desire to fulfill our greatest potential. To grow - to expand - to become all that we can be.\n\nThe person you end up becoming by the end of a journey (the process of goal setting and achieving is most definitely a journey!) is not the same person who started the journey. Achieving goals teaches you that you had what it took to achieve something you maybe weren’t sure you could, in the beginning.\n\nThe process teaches you that you had more than you thought: more guts,
