goal setting for optimal performance

Are You Living A “Settle For” Life?

Raise Your ExpectationsRaise your standards and your expectations… They go hand in hand.

Believe in yourself. You have the ability to follow through on your goals to the end, without waivering.

Create powerful habits that will enable you to achieve whatever you want. You can do it.

“If you don’t set a baseline standard for what you’ll accept in life, you’ll find it’s easy to slip into behaviors and attitudes or a quality of life that’s far below what you deserve.” — Tony Robbins

And we all know what “settle for” means, don’t we? You want something more, but you are settling for something less. Something that seems easier in the moment. Don’t fall into that trap. Easier now probably means harder later…

And, usually that’s going to be a lower achievement level that is not where you want to be, or not what you want to have as you go through life. Delayed gratification will always be more satisfying than instant gratification. When you learn to enjoy the journey, each destination will simply be a pit stop… 🙂

Failure is not an option. Believe in possibility… And live your best life in whatever form that takes. But you get to decide. You own it!

Commit yourself to success in whatever form you may choose. Making healthy choices every day is a good place to start. It takes energy to think accurately.
