The best way to continue something is to start it because, obviously, if you don’t start then you can’t continue. It’s as simple as that. We also know that starting something is a lot easier than continuing something, especially if it’s long term. I know that having to continue something is a difficult thing to do.

There have been times where I had given up some of my goals because it took a long time for me to accomplish them. I’m pretty sure majority of the human population has had the same experience. The key is to stop doing that.

The tricky part with success is that you have to believe that you will succeed. Believe that you can succeed is out of the picture. Scratch it, rip it, or burn that thought out from your head.

When taking the first step into your goal, you have to understand that you will fail if you think that you will fail. It’s like climbing a tree.

If you keep thinking that you can’t do it because it’s too high then you won’t be able to because you’ll give up after your first fall. However, if you keep thinking that you can, you’ll be able to climb up because you worked hard to reach your goal. Sure, you may end up with some bruises here and there but that’s what trial and error is. You hurt yourself so your body knows for sure that you won’t be repeating what you just did to get that bruise. But seriously though, don’t do that.

Basically what I’m trying to say is that if you start a goal thinking that you’re going to fail then you are going to fail before you’ve even started. It doesn’t matter if you’ve already started you’re going to fail anyways if you keep thinking like that.

Sometimes, it’s good to walk into something not being too optimistic about it but that doesn’t mean that you should walk in with a pessimist’s point of view. Believing that you will fail is entirely different than actually failing in the long run.
