5 Ways To Maintain Momentum and Achieve Your Goals

540x293-20140507-a445a423.jpg

The biggest difference between winning and losing is the ability to follow through. Here are 5 things you should remember so you can maintain momentum and achieve your goals:

  1. 1. Remember your vision. It's so easy to lose focus. Perhaps you've been spinning your wheels or things haven't progressed as you'd like. Take some time to remember why you started in the first place. Envision the goal and the satisfaction that will come with its completion. If something is important enough, there isn't anything in the world that can keep you from it.
  2. 2. Keep the goals ahead of you. Ensure you're still striving to reach the goal. Always be willing to learn more and do more. Keep looking forward and leave negatives and setbacks behind you. By reminding yourself of what is possible, you stay enthused when you need it most.
  3. 3. Be consistent. If you gave your best every single day just imagine what you could accomplish. Yea sure, you may have heard it a thousand times, but people who, "keep on keepin on" are more likely to see results over someone who keeps giving up. There is no failure in a setback. True failure is quitting. You never know where the next opportunity will come from. So you need to always be upping your game to make sure you're ready to pounce when the moment arises.
  4. 4. Don't hurry up and wait. Like being consistent, don't let circumstances steal your momentum. This could be people who don't do what they say. Or those who don't return calls. If people aren't moving to your timeline them perhaps you need to be working with people who will. You dictate the tempo. So don't procrastinate!
  5. 5. Maintain a life balance. Many people chasing their dreams lose focus of some of the important things in life. While working hard and being willing to do whatever is necessary to achieve success is necessary, we should always keep up a healthy work/life balance. Too much of anything isn't a good thing. Spend time with your family and friends. Then return to your tasks at hand refreshed and refocused. Just as long as it develop into distractions.

Maintaining momentum is hard for even the inspired of souls. So don't get down if you have a few bad days. Pick yourself back up and carry on. There will always be a new day, and new opportunities. It's easier to keep the ball rolling if you never let it stop

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

THE CROWN YOU CARRY: A Letter to My LOVELY Daughter FROM THE HEART OF A MOTHER

My Dearest Daughter, As the sun rises over the hills of Limuru, casting golden rays upon the dew-kissed tea leaves, my heart swells with pride, hope, and the wisdom only a mother can carry. You, my beautiful girl, are in school, and while the world sees a student in uniform, I see a queen in the making. I see the grace of your grandmother, the fire of your ancestors, and the promise of a bright African dawn glowing in your eyes. This Easter, God granted me the sweet joy of bonding with you—not just as a mother—but as a woman who has walked a little further on this winding road of life. You may not know it yet, but in those laughter-filled mornings and quiet evening chats, a legacy was passed on: not of gold or silver, but of values, vision, and virtue. Let me speak to your soul now, daughter of mine. Listen with your spirit. In this life, my sweet child, “a child who does not listen to the mother’s advice will sleep with the flies” — a Ghanaian proverb as old as wisdom itself. The worl...

Mr. Riley was already there when they arrived, sitting on the sand, eyes closed in a deep meditation. He was shirtless, wearing camouflage-patterned shorts similar to the ones The Spellbinder styled the day he appeared on the beach and a pair of rubber diving booties with smiley face emojis scattered over them. You would have been more than amused if you saw him in them. An assistant rushed out of the billionaire’s home the instant he raised a hand toward the heavens, displaying the universal victory sign. Three crisp pages of paper were effic...
