Description

Have you ever set a goal and then become frustrated at your apparent inability to achieve it?

Just about everyone knows about goals and how good it feels to reach them. What a lot of people don’t know about is how goals work and what gets in their way.

Our entire life can be described as a goal-achieving process. From our very first breath until our final one, we spend our time satisfying goals. Some are quick and simple, others are much more complex and enduring, but they are all still goals. Feeling good occurs when important goals are satisfied, and distress, despair, and turmoil arise when goals we value are blocked or frustrated.

In these unpredictable times, understanding goals and how they work is more important than ever. The environments and contexts we find ourselves in can have a big impact on goals. To develop a robust state of mind and an ongoing sense of contentment and wellbeing, it is crucial to manage and nurture our goals. And even managing and nurturing our goals is a goal!

Life is goals – there’s no escaping them.
