Shattered, aren’t I?

Never going to be able to hold my head high again - oh, woe is me :(

How often hasn’t this happened?

More times than I care to mention - and you?

When we do not achieve our goals, how do we get up again?

After a suitable time of mourning, look up above the clouds and realise that it is

a glorious morning - the sun’s still shining, and hope rises once more . . .

Important thing is to sit down - no, I didn’t say Start beating yourself up again! -

and quietly review where you failed to meet the goals you had set out.

I was going to finish my 10 BootCamp lessons by 31st July, 2015.

What happened? I got sidetracked - hijacked - by lesson 6 Writing out Themed Content.

I was stymied - I didn’t know how to go about writing about . . . ? what?

I did not have a clear vision of my niche - what I was actually putting on my website.

I don’t have hobbies, things about which I rave and tell everyone about :)

Oh, I am passionate - I can pick up the ball and run with it . . but an initiator is not where I’m at!!

So I had to go off and find out about writing - writing blogs, posts, content . . .

Have I got there yet? No, but I am on my way!

So, I haven’t goofed off, or abandoned my quest - just become better prepared for the journey.

So I am writing my Themed Content, and setting up my pages/posts . . .

and carrying on with my goal to finish my 10 BootCamp lessons by 31st August, 2015.

You see, all that I have to change is my target date, and I’m back on track.

With renewed vigour and a keener sense of what I am working towards.

See you at the top . . . :)

Larry, your kind words fill me with gratitude - didn't think after reading your profile, etc., that I would be able to help you!!
Love your delusion of grandeur - should definitely be your profile pic

I see you enjoy the journey, what's the problem? Ain't the success all IN the journey?

Great post. It is very important to be reminded that if you miss a goal, you can keep going and change your target! I'm closing in on missing my first short term financial goal but I can see the progress so I will take a lesson from you and keep it up!
