Exceed
your goals
You reach all your goals at work, so why do you feel a lack of accomplishment?
Maybe you're failing to really challenge yourself.
When Julie Jordan Scott stared up at a rock climbing wall, she
felt confident in her role as cheerleader and kept both feet firmly
on the ground as others challenged themselves to scramble 44 feet
to the top. Then, she decided to give it a try and set her goal
at an easily attainable 15 feet.
As she made the climb, a remarkable change took place and she decided
to strive for the top. "The wall had become symbolic of all I had
wanted to do, yet believed I could not do because of my own self-imposed
limitations," Scott writes on ComfortQueen.com.
"I decided I was no longer being a participant in my own destructive
beliefs. I was going to become completely, fully an expression of
my destiny."
