Are You A Driven Person?

If you have read previous posts, you know that I'm a big believer in goal setting in all areas of life. If you don't have anything to shoot for then how will you ever know if you succeed? So, for just a minute, I want to use that as a spring board into the next stage of that process.

You've set your goals; now what? How do you approach the task before you of trying to reach those goals? I'm a firm believer that we should let our goals drive us to work harder every day of our lives. Let them be the motivator behind everything you do. If you want to lose 15 lbs. let that goal drive you not just while you're in the gym but also when you sit down to dinner that night, when you're faced with the option of taking the elevator or the stairs, when your co-workers want to grab fast food for lunch. If you really want that goal, every action you take during the day will be moving you one step closer to it. If not, then maybe you need to rethink your goals. Maybe they aren't as important to you as they should be. Discipline yourself to be a driven person and you'll be amazed at what you can accomplish. Good luck!
