Sometimes, I used to be in the States, where I just wish I had a lot of money to tackle all of my needs, I can think of maybe $1 million. I know if I have this amount, I will be financially free, and most of us feel like that too sometimes. Most of this impossible money is achievable, and that is why we mostly set goals so that we can achieve them. The common mistake is that we mostly focus on why we set the goals, not the process it will take us to make the goal happen.
When starting a business, many people tend to fixate on the end goal and what their business will look like ten years down the line. However, it's crucial to focus on the process as well - the steps that will take you towards that ten-year vision. The process is what you can actually plan and execute, and it's important to remember that not all processes are easy. Some may push you mentally, physically, and financially, but it's important to work through them to achieve your goals.
Focusing solely on the end goal and comparing oneself to the online presence of others can lead to emotional instability and even depression. Social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram have contributed to this phenomenon by showcasing the lives of those who have already achieved what others are striving for. It can be challenging to maintain emotional stability during the process of achieving goals when exposed to such comparison.
Mental strength plays a crucial role in staying focused on the process. In today's world, distractions are abundant, making it challenging to concentrate. To overcome this, it is essential to understand oneself. Often, people fail to achieve their goals because they do not put in enough effort to understand themselves. Moreover, emotional instability triggered by online content can negatively impact the process. Therefore, it is vital to be mentally strong and avoid getting emotionally overwhelmed by online triggers.
One of the reasons why we don't achieve our goal is because we only make plans without considering how we can follow through with the plans. Like what are the things we want to do to achieve our goal? What are the things we must prioritize? What are those things that will make our goals or our plans easier for us? Instead, we just set a goal, and that is it. It's important to note that we often overlook the process because it's not broken down into manageable steps. Many of us create a plan without breaking it down into simpler components, making it difficult to achieve our goals. Instead, we should consider breaking our plans into simpler tasks that can be accomplished more easily.
The last part is that some of us get carried away when the process is working, and this happens most times in investment or business when we start making money through the business we created Instead of putting back money into the business, we just start spending Because we get carried away, this jeopardizes our process, and some of us cannot get back on our feet again. When a process is working, it's crucial to concentrate on it. Instead of getting too excited, the focus should be on improving it further. This is not the time to become complacent, it's the time to put in more effort and enhance the process.

Having plans for a desired financial progress is important but then we need to work towards the plans as well to yield something Profitable at the end.
Well articulated. The process is very important both in business and other aspects of life. The reason why most people focused on the end result might be because they are eager for it. It is okay to be eager for the end result but if we don't focus on the process, the end result might not come out successful.
It's definitely important to have a plan and the willpower to go through with it. With so much going on, we can't afford to get distracted too much otherwise we won't be accomplish our own goals.
