CindySense, Amen sister! We all know how impossible it is to get someone else to do what we want them to do (ever try to get someone else to quit smoking or lose weight?)...but it is equally difficult to get ourselves to do something that our heart isn't really in. Our goals have to be just that - ours. That's the only way we can even hope to attain them or to enjoy the process. Eugene,

If you're trying to achieve something that someone else wants, your fighting an uphill battle that will more than likely be lost.

True, we all make some sacrifices to get where we want to go. It's just important to balance sacrifice with enjoyment. Everything in moderation, as my Dad always said! Michael, You make a good point...just because we don't have a natural ability for something doesn't mean that we can't acquire the skill if we want it badly enough. We just have to make sure we're not battling against our own nature and making ourselves miserable trying to be somebody or something we're not. As you said though, sometimes we can push our own limits a bit and find that we enjoy something we once feared. Thanks for bringing that up! Edgar, Real goals are the key to success aren't they? Shilpan, Thanks for the response. I read that article and it is right on the money! Marelisa,

All your points are well taken. I consider goal is a process of finding who you are and what makes you happy and then use that what makes you happy as a tool to reach life of abundance. As I've outlined in my article, http://www.pickthebrain.com/blog/5-ways-to-bury-a-great-idea/#more-503 one must develop intense desire, have strong faith and strong conviction to believe that best and fulfilling life is to arrive.
