Reasons to succeed
Surround yourself with reminders of the reasons you have chosen to do the work you do. Keep the thoughts of those reasons foremost in your mind.

Achievement never happens for its own sake. Achievement is built when there are solid, meaningful reasons behind it.

The only enduring impediment to success is the lack of a reason for that success. Connect with a good reason, keep that connection strong, and you will find your way through whatever challenges you encounter.

When you have a reason, you have a stake in the outcome. When you have a reason, you're able to summon the discipline, commitment, persistence and creativity necessary to get the job done.

The best motivation is not to be found in some sophisticated secret technique or procedure. The best motivation is to constantly keep yourself in contact with your reasons.

Give yourself plenty of reasons to succeed. And you most assuredly will.

-- Ralph Marston

I think most people just feel trapped. If they dont see an immediate solution to their goal/problem, they give up..

Everyone has reasons/desires to succeed. It's just hard to follow through with it all the time

Sometimes we go too fast, and sometimes we have to take 1 step back to go 2 steps forward. It's like me I may have to move to a smaller house (1 step back) to save more money and start working on my goals/dreams. (2 steps forward).

Another way to look at it is that sometimes we have to take a step back to look at the whole picture. If you want a good view of the Taj Mahal, for instance, you won't want to get 5 feet from the building to look at it, you'll want to step back to get a good view of it and/or take a picture.

^ Very true and there's nothing even wrong with that... just as long as you're not continuously stepping back
