When it comes to achieving our goals or objectives, we are our own worst enemy. Some of us are our very own time bomb ,without even knowing it. There are a series of behaviors that come in the way of our success.
Avoid procrastination.
Procrastination can be attributed to laziness. When you keep procrastinating, you derail from your goals. You may end up doing things which are irrelevant or unhelpful in achieving your goal.
To avoid procrastinating , set precise and concise goals. Do not set overwhelming goals, but goals which are easily manageable and attainable.
Avoid Trying to please everyone.
You may think trying to have everyone to like you is the way to go. Another case is when you cannot say NO but try to solve everyone’s problems. Or you may not be able to speak your mind.
If the above applies to you, believe it or not, it’s your very stumbling block. No matter what you do, you can never please everyone. Learn to please yourself before others that way you will regain your confidence.
Avoid the fear of failing .
You might be even scared of what people will say, in case you failed. sometimes even before we start a project, you tell our peers how unserious you are about it. you start the project on a low key just because you are scared of failing and being laughed at in case it fails.
The fear of failure can cause you not to even start with your objectives. If you fear to fail, you can get frozen at a spot and you will miss several opportunities.
Avoid making excuses.
There are so many things which can come in between you and your goals. Some of these things will be totally out of your control. It is easier to point a finger at someone else when things go wrong.
Building your self discipline is all about putting an end excuses. Try to get the most out of life, avoid making excuses and take action.
Don’t be hard on change.
Things might make your head spin when your usual routines are suddenly altered. Changes may cause uncertainty and may be frightful.
No matter what you’re trying to do, always be open to change. Change is an essential part of life that we should always be ready to embrace, engage and overcome as they allow us to grow.
Be open to change and be flexible and easily adaptable to different circumstances.
