Thank you Jenny! I love that quote and I need to remember it. It is very easy to get caught up in comparing ourselves to others. I do it all the time even though I tell myself not to. Thanks so much for stopping by!

I love goal setting, and I love your ten tips. I especially love the reminder to not compare ourselves to others. “Comparison is the thief of joy.” Thanks for the great post!

Positive thinking is definitely huge. If you can’t picture yourself reaching your goal then there’s a good chance you won’t get there.

Very true! Dream, believe, achieve. (after a lot of hard work. ;))

Me too! It makes reaching the little goals much easier if you know you’ll be spoiling yourself when you get there. 😉

I especially like number three. It’s the whole power of positive thinking. You have to see it. Close your eyes and picture yourself with your goal attained. Be your goal.

I know. I do the same thing but I think I’m getting better at just doing my best and not worrying about what others are doing. Takes practice I think. 🙂

I’m always wondering how other moms seem to get so much done while I struggle to do a load of laundry.

You’re very right! Too often we save our happiness until the finish line when in reality we’re missing out on lots of happy moments along the way. Thanks for stopping by.
