An Important 'Secret" In Goal Attainment

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty 0575737

Disciplined DogsOur buyer and seller clients, ourselves, ALL have goals they want to achieve in some timely fashion. I have written about action and persistence and vision and focus all being important in getting from Point A to Point B.

BUT one of the MOST important factors in that path, a SECRET that sometimes slips people and their minds, whether to save enough money, to get a new position, to buy that house is the following:

DISCIPLINE

"is the BRIDGE between goal and accomplishment.

It can require patience. It can rely on being a steadfast follower DAILY of a step one through ten plan. THINK of landing men on the moon. The country and the scientists and engineers and astronauts stuck with "the process" until the goal was attained. Think of an exercise plan or weight loss or fitness goal. You do NOT achieve it over night, but with DISCIPLINE get their with how you act. THINK of this graphic when you think of discipline. The dogs want water. BUT they must WAIT, be in line, SHOW UP, and above all stay ON TASK. The better disciplined your mind, heart, and body is in to something, the more likelihood that goal WILL BE ACHIEVED.

I've never seen this one.  That is amazing.  Poor thirsty doggies.  This guy knows how to train.  Wonder if he will come to my house and deal with the Boys.
