Keeping on Track and Being Persistent

Gordon has returned from France and shares great information in this episode about being persistent if you want to achieve your goals and live the life you love. It can be easy to be self-defeatist if something doesn’t go well the first time but if you are tied emotionally to the outcome you will be more persistent about achieving your goals. When you decide on your goal and how important it is to you create a road map and use it to measure where you are now and where you want to be. With a good plan and vision of where you want to be, you will be able to be persistent when you hit obstacles along the way.   KEY TAKEAWAYS You need to move on from the ‘giving it a try’ stage as quickly as possible Learning can begin to slow down when it becomes more challenging Knowing it can be done is  a great motivator – look at examples of others who have done it you can see what they have achieved and what you can aspire to The exposure to what’s possible is the key to being persistent. Have a plan about what you want to achieve and how you will get there. Create a comprehensive roadmap. There are different elements of learning and these need to be included on your roadmap. Breakdown your goals into steps that you can achieve as you progress towards your ultimate goal. It’s always important to see where you’ve come from so that you can look back to see how far you’ve come and know clearly where you are going. Having a roadmap and being able to adjust it based on the results you are getting will help you overcome any obstacles on your journey. If you don’t have a vision about where you want to be or track your progress you are more likely to give up If you are tied emotionally to the outcome the more persistent you will be in reaching your goal.   BEST MOMENTS ‘If you don’t measure where you are you are more likely to give up’ ‘If you can remain persistent you will be able to achieve the goals you have set yourself’ ‘Be consistent and persistent to achieve your goals and live the life you love’   VALUABLE RESOURCES Life, Living It and Loving It podcast    ABOUT THE HOST     Welcome to the life, living it and loving it podcast with Extreme Execution Coach Gordon Done.    We don’t know about you, but we’re fed up of burning ourselves out and living in a state of survival.
