Goal chasing
Shooting for goals is key – it’s how we know where we want to go.
Because if we don’t have any goals to aim for, where are we headed?
That is like jumping in our cars, to go somewhere, but we don’t know where.
That never happens because when we get in the car, we are planning to go somewhere, and we get there wherever that may be.
Goals are the same way.
But people look at goals as the end all be all
“When I get that money I’ll be happy”
“At 1,000,000 followers I’ll be happy”
The problem is that this sets us up for failure.
Because the issue isn’t us achieving the goals
The issue is us achieving these goals with the hope of the goals ‘fixing’ things.
When the thing that needs to be fixed is our inside, our mind, our thoughts.
Because if we can be happy with nothing, we sure as hell will be happy when we achieve our goals
But if we are miserable and indifferent to life until we achieve our goals,
Then we’ll be waiting around for a while chasing empty goal upon empty goal.
Let’s spend some time on our inner world
because our inner world creates our outer world
