Tenaciously not ferociously

# Chapter 153

Set big goals. Wherever there is a new start, set big goals. You need the challenge and the focus that big goals bring. Bigger goals are going to require more of you, to step up your self-confidence, to develop new skills, to deliver more. Raising the expectations on yourself can be a big boon to your growth and influence. Merely being glad the previous year is over is not enough, you need to make a definitive step forward, to create movement and energy in the present and future. This does not just happen. This will not happen without initiative from you and me.

I know how difficult this is for you, as you feel overwhelmed and weary from just holding the status quo, but that system is not carrying you to where you want to go. You need more, and to get it, you will have to give more at least in the short run. You will have to have a burst of energy to create a system that will deliver what you really need, what you really want. Hey if you could buy it, I would be selling it, but this is the only path, where you make it happen. Yes yes I know that there are a couple of lucky sods in the world that win the lottery, but 100% of those sods end up bankrupt soon afterwards, and you need a better system than bankruptcy. So in the long run those sods were not so lucky after all.

Back to the first paragraph. Set big goals. Go after them tenaciously. Chip away at them merciless everyday. Make some progress. Tenaciously not ferociously. You can do this.
