Overwhelm & Goal Setting

“Mile by mile it’s a trial;
yard by yard it’s hard;
but inch by inch it’s a cinch.”
-Anonymous

I think this is a great quote and find
it especially applicable to setting goals.

Sometimes I think if we focus only on our
end goal it seems to be so far away that
it’s overwhelming just thinking about it.
I know I’ve had times when I became
immobilized because I felt the end result
was just too daunting to even try to achieve.

How about you? Ever had similar experiences?

I can recall when I was younger and having
to help work in our vegetable gardens. One
thing that needed to be done was to weed
around the plants in all the garden rows.

Now, each row was probably 80 to 100 feet long…

As you might imagine, when looking down the row
from one end to the other — holy mackeral —
it really was quite a long distance!

I remember feeling so overwhelmed and drained
of energy looking down the row, I just wanted
to quit and wished I were somewhere else!

But then I learned a very valuable lesson…

Instead of constantly looking at the end of the
row and feeling tired and wore out, I learned
to focus my attention instead on the small area
in front of me, weeding one plant at a time.

It was an easy task and it was manageable – weeding
one plant at a time. And before I knew it, I had
reached the end of the long row!

As the quote goes – inch by inch it’s a cinch.
And I believe it does work better this way…

So if you’re feeling overwhelmed with your goals
try setting several smaller, manageable goals to
focus on. You just might end up achieving your
goal faster than you thought possible! 🙂

To Your Success,
Donna
