Just recently my friends from Australia came on a visit to UK and I queried them on the distance of travel and they said it would be over 21 hours flight, but they had a stop over with the 2nd leg being about 14 hours.
And this got me thinking, has anyone ever gotten tired of the long flight and decided they had had enough the pilot should let them off right there -mid-air. ... 😂
Funny right 😂 ( I laugh again because I just imagined it!)
However, that is what most of us do with our dreams and goals.
At the instance of a challenge or indeed some challenges, we have had enough and choose to leave it and move on, the desire for commitment is gone.
Can we be in it for the 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗮𝘂𝗹? 🤔
By no means am I propagating that when you see it definitely not working, you should carry on regardless.
What I am saying is that, they same evaluation that comes into play when considering a long haul flight maybe helpful with our goals, visions and dreams. These include:
1. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆: Just the same way you may want to go to Sidney and you do not buy a ticket to New Zealand, same way you need to get clarity on your vision, dreams and goals, What your are offering and its direction of growth.
2. 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Actions brings more clarity. Also, how you have to buy the ticket to make the trip, so also you have to take action towards you dreams and goals. Make and execute a plan. It's Antoine de Saint-Exupéry who said"𝗔 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗵".
3. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻(𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗪𝗵𝘆): The reason for wanting to make the trip must be important to you, a dream holiday, family you must visit etc. In the same way 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙬𝙝𝙮 for wanting to achieve this dream or goal must also be important to you. The impact you want to make, the lives who to change, the legacy you want to leave. If I will borrow a quote from Simon Sinek, he says “𝙋𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙙𝙤𝙣'𝙩 𝙗𝙪𝙮 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙤; 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙗𝙪𝙮 𝙬𝙝𝙮 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙤 𝙞𝙩.”
My why is to see as many people as possible, see their dreams become reality with great success by helping them get clarity to follow these dreams and working with accountability for these dreams to be successful.
Open to chats ! 😂
