What’s up Chris!
I was scrolling through Facebook and saw this question:
What is the biggest obstacle preventing you from achieving your goals!?
For me, I responded, it’s waiting for my ex to move out. I just want the bandaid ripped off and then I can truly move on and achieve the goals I have set for myself.
i mentioned this in the comments and people said I was copping out and really didn’t want to achieve my goals…
WTF
I answered the damn question why am I getting grief?
Signed,
Get off my back!

Hey Get off my back!
First and foremost, let’s acknowledge that you were willing to look at the question and answer it, publicly. That took guts…
Now let’s look at your answer.
I’m not going to sugar coat this, because I think you deserve one.
The focus on achieving your goals has to ALWAYS start with you.
No situation, circumstance, or moment will be the perfect point at which to pursue your goals.
And let me remind you, they are YOUR goals.
So to rely on someone or some condition to change to help you achieve your goals is a guaranteed “fail.”
If you truly believe in the goals you’ve set, then get focused on them.
When you do, you’ll look up and the situation you thought was holding you back will resolve itself — as if by magic.
Put your time, attention and energy into that which makes YOU light up and watch things change to create the ideal environment in which you can succeed.
You, Get off my back, focus on the “controllable” and let the chaos control itself.
No time like the present, my friend.
Now get moving!
