Why do we abandon the goals that matter most to us? Is it a lack of discipline? A lack of willpower? Or is it simply that we stop caring?


In this series on goal setting, I am going to challenge the myth that you need "extraordinary" willpower to succeed. The truth is, you only need ordinary discipline—if you have the right structure. In this video, you will learn:


The 3 Stages of Goals: How to move from Abstract to Concrete, and finally to Personal Projects.


The "Abstract" Trap: Why vague goals like "I want to be healthy" or "I want to read more" set us up for failure.

Watch the video here to learn how to sharpen your vision. Next Up: Stay tuned for the next video where I break down exactly how to turn a Concrete Goal into a doable Project. #motivation #goals #bibleverse #inspiration
