Setting goals is important; however, sticking with them are just as, if not more, important. Often times we quit before we reach the finish line because we feel like we aren't getting anywhere. We may set out to lose weight, help someone in their Christian walk, get our kids on a schedule or hand in work before deadlines; but for one reason or another, we end up going in circles or better yet, standing still. Instead of getting frustrated, we may need to change the goal and break it into smaller goals to ultimately reach the main one.
Though it sounds great to say, "I'm going to lose 30 pounds in 3 months," it may be more encouraging to tell yourself, "I'm going to lose 2-3 pounds a week" and see where that gets you. No matter what the goal or job is, know that it's not in vain.1 Corinthians 15:58 says: Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
So just know, It's Not Over!
Change Your Mind, Change Your Life!
