eyes on the prize

Keep your goals right in front of you.

They must be written down, they must be posted where you can see them and they must be on your mind.

If you don't do this then other things will work themselves into your life and your goals will be pushed farther away.

It's just that simple.

I heard a story about Jimi Hendrix and goals once. When he took up the guitar he couldn't get enough of it. He kept his guitar right beside his bed and when he woke up in the morning he reached for it as he sat up, he carried it with him, playing all the time, as he went to the bathroom. Now that is keeping a goal where it belongs, with you all the time.
