#334 It's lonely in the middle.
Manage episode 487028581 series 3557145
Most goals fail in the middle, not at the start or the end, due to the journey feeling long, unclear, and unrewarding during the challenging middle phase. Dr. Terry Worshbacher demonstrates determination through her daily training runs for her upcoming race across Tennessee in July.
• Break down big goals into manageable steps - significant achievements don't happen all at once
• Track your progress consistently - when discouraged, past progress becomes proof you're moving forward
• Revisit your "why" regularly - motivation fades but your purpose is the anchor
• Don't quit when you're in the middle - most people are challenged during this phase
• Remember what inspired you to start - reconnect with the emotions behind your goal
• Push yourself harder than ever before - determination helps overcome resistance
Call Dr. Terry's hotline "Talking with Dr Terry 180 seconds to better you" at 210-390-6100 to follow her progress and get inspired. Leave a message after the beep and let us know what you're doing and won't stop doing because it's worth it.
