Achieving Goals – Dan Regan Hypnotherapy in Ely and Newmarket
We live in a world where everything is becoming more and more instant. You can message anyone at anytime, and probably get a response in a matter of seconds. You post something online and you check and check for the likes and comments. Everything is on demand and you can stuff to your door in hours (or even less). There used to be something special about waiting, being patient and the anticipation rather than the instant hits, even if it does make life so much easier a lot of the time.
As we get used to everything being quick, getting instant psychological hits and becoming used to instant results from our actions, it can mean problems when it comes to the bigger goals in life, those things that take time, energy and effort.
A need for instant results and quick fire progress can mean that when these life goals take a bit longer (as they will), you get frustrated, anxious or annoyed and either it becomes harder work or you may just give up. We aren’t as well versed in the skill of being patient!
Yet, we instinctively know that the big and worthwhile goals in life, those things that have real meaning and a sense of purpose for you, will take time, energy, persistence and focus. So start to be ok with that. By pursuing these things and enjoy the journey of successes and challenges, you get to become a better version of you. You learn new skills and coping strategies, you get the pleasure and triumph of progress and accomplishment, and you can enjoy the journey that takes you through seeing it through and achieving the end result.
