Rethinking Goal Initiation

Many individuals misunderstand the timing of goal-setting, often waiting for significant dates like New Year’s or birthdays to begin. It’s crucial to realize that if a goal is important, the motivation to start should come immediately rather than be postponed. If the advantages of pursuing a goal aren't compelling enough today, they likely won't be tomorrow either. By starting goals promptly, one can enjoy the benefits sooner and stay consistently engaged, shifting the mindset from deferring action to prioritizing immediate progress.
