He argues that people who succeed adjust the plan based on results rather than demolishing it at the first sign of stagnation, and that knowing what a goal actually demands prevents spending everything before the finish. He closes on time as the greatest variable, noting that going too fast or quitting too early is the larger hazard. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://roglawfitness.com/how-to-rock-at-goal-setting/ Quotes to ponder: "Successful people do not just create a plan and follow it blindly; they are constantly re-evaluating it based on their results." "A complete overhaul is rarely necessary" "The greatest variable in achieving our goals is time."
