We can do a lot of things well and accomplish many goals throughout our lives. When we have sufficient determination and time we can generally get to most desired destinations. But sometimes we may try to accomplish something and no matter what we do can’t seem to move forward. When we struggle and push and still can’t get ahead it’s very frustrating. Life is complicated and we don’t always know everything when we begin a journey. If we truly cannot achieve what we’ve set out to do right now it doesn’t mean we have failed. We can look at the situation objectively, see what the problem is and then revise our plans. We may need additional information or we may need to wait until we are in a different place in our lives. Although it’s important to try our best to reach our goals, there is no value in trying over and over again to accomplish something that cannot be accomplished right now. Recognizing limits is important. If we simply cannot move forward no matter what we’ve tried the timing may be wrong or we may need to wait until our circumstances have changed. If the destination is out of reach now we can set it aside and do other things and try again later. All planes get grounded from time to time. Once we see what is needed to move forward we may begin again. We don’t have to stay grounded forever. We have everything we need to be successful and continue forward.
We only have control over our personal decisions and what we do. Sometimes when we’re trying to accomplish something and others are involved, their decisions may derail us and push us off track. If we must have the agreement of others to move forward and that is not forthcoming we may be stopped in our tracks and unable to progress. If we can’t bring them into agreement we may need to find a way around them to continue forward. If that isn’t possible it may be necessary to set the goal aside until things change. Life is fluid and ever changing and in time our circumstances will adjust and we’ll be able to start again.
Unpredictable complications are always a factor. We can’t know what we don’t know and sometimes there is more to the story than we are aware when we start out. Others may keep facts from us, things may develop that stop our progress or our lives may change in such a way that we can’t continue forward at this time. When those things happen we can revise our plans to accommodate whatever has happened and decide how we want to proceed. We can wait if we need to and do other things until our situation changes. Life is long and a road that is blocked today may well be clear in the days ahead. We can prepare for the future and be ready when the time is right to start again.
Today if you’ve been working hard on accomplishing something and no matter what you do can’t move forward, stop and look at the situation openly and completely. Revise you plans if you need to and if the timing is wrong, set the goal aside and work on other things. Be patient and continue forward. Although you may have to wait, eventually everything you desire will come.
