Process vs Goal

When it come to goals there are two types of people. One focuses on
the completed goal and the other focuses on the process of getting
it done. Goal people are outer focused and are equipped to motivate
themselves by imagining the finished project. A process person is
likely a creative person who is more focused on inner states of being
than outer goal.

Actually we all have both characteristics but we tend to focus on one
more than the other. If traditional goal setting works for you, keep at
it. If not then look toward making progress by focusing on your daily
activities and state of mind. You'll be less likely to overwhelmed by
the complexity of the task but you'll still achieve the goal. You'll
do it by creating inner success one day at a time.

become is the winner you were born to be! by Zig Ziglar
