Embolden Your "Why"

For as much effort as I put into each important endeavor, the truth remains, I work hardest on myself. And so it still confounds me that I don't get more things done.

Perhaps this is a hang-up many of you can relate to. There just never seems to be enough hours in a day, or you're secretly haunted by the knowing there's simply a better way. You just haven't figured it out yet.

But how many of us work steadily towards a goal, sometimes for years on end, without occasionally taking inventory of its importance? Does it still matter? Is it a long-term goal or simply a means to one? And more importantly, do I have a philosophy on life? What is it exactly these goals that I value so much are helping me do? Be? Get out of life?

As of late, these are questions I haven't asked myself nearly enough. I'll plop down in a chair and begin typing away without a second thought as to why. I know they're important, or were at one point, but fail to dig deeper asking, "What is the long-term objective here?"

As a result, it's easy to lose sight of the broader vision. In fact, for some, it's impossible to lose because you never had it to begin with.

Stay focused on your dreams. Work hard. Go forth undaunted.

Just check in with yourself from time to time and embolden your, "Why." It may make all the difference.
