Defining goals and decision making, as an entrepreneur.

Without focus, goals can not be made. Worse to come is the lack of decisiveness. Being able to make a goal isn't a simple feat, but it is a simple process. The process begins with self-conscientiousness.

If you feel lost and hopeless about what to do, it's not the end. Ironically, you may have ended something recently that has taken a large portion of your daily time dedicated to some activity. It's much more important to recognize that ending something doesn't have to be a total result of utter failure. It must be, in turn, preceded by proportional gaps of endured pain. A famous quote to live by is still; "Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional." Loss creates pain, but it is still a decision to continue with pain and begin suffering.

Instead of suffering it takes repeated discipline to remind oneself to remain in the mentality to continue seeking something. Find something different to focus on and imagine yourself doing that task years from now. What does that look like? Is it something you want to pursue? If it isn't continue to search. Within this search, you might stumble upon something more desirable. Stick to that idea and develop a simple goal. Goals don't have to be complex. That is all it takes.

Any tasks at hand that lead to the goal are the decisions to pursue. All others that lead against or stray from that goal, generally aren't a good idea to pursue. This is the struggle for consistency. This is why goals seem so out of reach. It doesn't have to be this complex, but it all depends on the size, simplicity, and savings of the goal.

Depending on how complex your life is can also define how many goals are dislocated from one another. Hopefully, you don't torment yourself with a multitude of goals that some overlap, but many are separate. The messier your goal-setting capacity is the longer it takes to maintain any consistency in simplicity.

The bigger the goal you have the longer it'll take to achieve and the more endurable painful event to reach it will take to reach. Reaching for seemingly simple, but overall generalized works to achieve a goal in mind, the higher the rate of events that prevent the relief and satisfaction of reaching a goal would be. It takes much more to specialize and specify the choice of detail within a goal, but just like fractions the more divisible a number is the easier it is to reach each portion it takes to increase to a whole. Decimals are difficult to write down when it's an irrational number. Clearly define a goal to be as simple as possible and failure is less optional and easier to fall into.

The last difficulty is probably the most difficult to accept, but the most well-known issue in goal setting. Sacrifice is normal to achieve a result within a goal. Sadly many create unrealistic and even more precisely drastic overly disproportionate expectations on the levels of dedication you individually can handle to achieve. This is why so many fall into the pit of depression and don't believe goals are worth it. The point of goals is salvation. To save something from something else. It is to discontinue current actions in pursuit of another and a willingness to sacrifice the livability of those decisions in life. Breaking habits saves you from making the wrong choice leading to the inevitable failure resulting in repetititious self conscience guilt.

To prevent this from occurring anymore treat yourself as a baby learning the first steps. Take it gently, bite by bite. Not gorging to the point of choking, but a point to understand your own gag reflex and to prevent choking. This is a bit analogous, obviously so here's an adult version. Define the action. I want to write. Propose a size you know you could easily achieve and have probably done before. I will write a paragraph. Now the size and simplicity are met. What about savings? The savings was the two statement combined. No one is asking you to write a 5-star internationally recognized best-seller book. Simple, The biggest goals take a lot of decisions so unless you know how you manage yourself the ladder to decisions should be easy to climb. After all, you can't climb a ladder if you can't reach the next step. Climb with the intent to increase your flexibility and motor control and no matter the kind of ladder being presented you'll learn to decide.

One decision I've made recently was to just dig back into including my family in my journey instead of treating my lifestyle strictly in front of a camera, background, and behind the scenes. It sounds long-winded, but the idea is to reduce my fear of being in the spotlight and being condemned for mistakes made on screen. The easiest route I can think of is simply to include others on camera. It saves me in the lonely journey as a 'starving artist' as I wade through the waters to receive any financial feedback. The size of the goal is reasonable for me to continue adding it to my daily life and I am always available for my family, but won't always be available for my income stream. This will lead to several painstaking heart-wrenching moments life asks people to get out of the shot and quiet down so I can record. Instead, I adapt and use what I have because I enjoy the process of creation more than I enjoy the result of what I post.
