Get Where You’re Going - By: Russell Wallace

We all want to get where we’re going as fast as possible. Kind of makes you wish you had a teleportation machine. But destinations aren’t just physical places like Texas or Africa; our goals are destinations in life as well. We want to become who we dream we want to be, and that dream is our destination. But the roads here have no solid map. Each destination is found by its creator, so only you can find your own destination. Fortunately, getting started on the right path is just a matter of the right mindset.

Positive thinking equals positive results

This should be taken to heart- and mind. On occasion, things may seem grim, but there is always the brighter side of things. Regardless of what situation you’re in, there is always an opportunity that arises. Tell yourself each day that you are a winner, that things are going your way, and go through your goals for the day with the determination to accomplish them. Remember to be positive when you talk to others and yourself. You hear your own words, and your brain processes them each time you say them, so always be positive when you think- and when you talk.

Endeavor to persevere

Perseverance: always strive towards bettering yourself. You shouldn’t get caught up in things running smoothly; always seek to make things better. Consider the automotive industry. Henry Ford built a car. Then he built another, and another. Today the automobile has gone from a small buggy with wooden wheels to an elegant machine of metal, ceramic, and computers. We should always find ways to do things better than before so that our little buggy can become a magnificent machine.

Don’t let mistakes become failure- make them a learning experience.

This is possibly the best way to get to where you’re going. If we let our mistakes consume us, dwelling on things that have come and gone, we lose sight of what’s ahead. Picture yourself driving down the road and you pass your exit. Do you stop driving, get out and stare at the exit, thinking of how foolish you are for missing it? Or do you circle around and solve the problem by moving forward? Mistakes are to be learned from, not something that is supposed to consume you and stop you dead in your tracks.

Just put one foot in front of the other…

We do not ascend a grand stair case in but a leap; we take it small steps at a time. While our greatest goal is our most important destination, it is important to set small goals that you can achieve along the way. These mile markers are something that you can clearly see as you move towards your destination. Being able to see each achievement as a stair step towards the greater goal helps you move smoothly along the way towards success.

A helping hand – it goes both ways

As we travel along these roads, we see others along the way to their own destinations. So we boost each other up and help one another get moving on the right path. Whether it’s some helpful advice or assistance, we help ourselves when we help others. Remember that help goes both ways, since it may be you on the side of the road, waving for some assistance one day.

If you want to get where you’re going, the best thing you can do is get moving. Don’t wait for the opportunity to knock on your door, go and find it and knock on its door! So get out there, be positive, and keep moving forward towards success.
