The Journey

28th October 2014

Live for today, plan for tomorrow. It is often very hard to get the balance quite right, especially when you are stuck working in your business, desperately trying to make ends meet.

However, it is so important to keep a focus on what is happening right now, because before you know it the time has passed, and an opportunity is missed. How often do you hear people say, once something or some time period is done, that everything will be a lot easier? The specific “obstacle” can be in work or in home life, but the trouble is you can become so focussed on getting past that period, that you miss all the good things that happened or could have happened in that time.

So whilst it is of course essential that you set long term goals and aims, it is vital that while planning for what is yet to come in the months and years to ahead, you do not miss something which could be significant right then, or even potentially life changing for the future. It may even help you to change your mind about future goals.

So, as I have no doubt said before, make sure you enjoy the journey, not just the getting there, because all too often the “pot of gold” is always just out of reach, and there are plenty of gems and good times to be had whilst you are still striving to reach your utopia. Be prepared to be buffeted along the way, and accept a little of what life brings, and then adapt your goals according. Instead of fighting things all the time, perhaps it may be worth embracing life’s events, enjoy what they bring, and be more aware of the now and the fun it can be.
