However, people are often unaware of the value of setting personal goals. It’s a natural human tendency to take the easy route, meaning we tend to choose paths that don’t challenge us. We seek to avoid the pressure and the hurdles that, when overcome, actually serve to strengthen us.
“Goal-setting has played a huge role in my marriage. We started goal-setting together early on in our relationship, and I really credit it for getting us to where we are today.”
One way of preventing this is to think like an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurs are almost always looking to grow and further expand their reach. Successful entrepreneurs are open to change because they know that change brings opportunity. The more they learn, the more they can earn; the more they acquire, the more value they can add to their company and deliver to their clients. The more successful they are, the more impact they have. If we could see ourselves through the eyes of a thriving entrepreneur and model our lives with similar planning and ambition, we, too, would strive to expand our own learning and performance in our daily life
