| Hey there,
Many people think achieving goals mostly brings pleasure and not achieving goals mostly brings pain.
Not quite.
There can be plenty of pain involved in achieving goals and plenty of pleasure in not achieving goals.
Think about it.
The cost of ambition is a snootful of stress, setback, and sorrow, and the payoff is fleeting. For a moment, we’re victorious. And then, we were victorious.
Contentment has costs, too, but isn’t there happiness to be found in the desires we reject? And success in the failures we avoid? And peace of mind in the struggles we sidestep?
Before trying to achieve a difficult goal, then, make sure you’ve considered the many pleasant things you could do with your time instead.
And don’t begin until you can firmly say, “I could do those many other things, but I choose to give them up and do this.”
Also:
If you’ve firmly chosen to improve your health and body composition and want to know how to set up your diet to reach a body fat goal by a specific date, check out this free calculator of mine:
