How to Give up Goal Setting and Get on with Business
If you own a family business, as I do, you go through the days overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of the number of goals and tasks you’re trying to get done in your business in one day. I could easily let fear and frustration take over, because I may be missing something that could make or break my ability to live in the style to which I’ve become accustomed.
I’ve discovered there’s a secret to overcoming this paralyzing fear. There’s a way to get back to the basics of enjoying your life, your business, and achieving your goals. That secret is to give up the notion that everything on your to do list for today has to be done. I can hear you now saying, “if I don’t do it, who will?!” Here’s something for you to consider.
How many times have you gotten to the end of a day and finally given up getting through your goals and your to do list, because there is just no way everything can get done to your satisfaction? How many times have you looked back later and realized that is was good some of those things didn’t get done, since circumstances and events changed that made it unnecessary for you to do them in the first place? This has happened to me more times than I can count. So, I came to this conclusion, some things on your list aren’t meant to be done when you think they should be.
