Everyone's dreams and goals are different and the obstacles that stand in the way of them can vary a lot!
Someone might dream of travelling the world, someone else may dream of becoming a soccer star, someone else a firefighter and someone else a lawyer! The obsicles that stand in our way of achieving these things vary from fear, money, confidence or ability but one thing is for sure! If you don't at least TRY then you'll never get there!
If you don't try Failure is a guaranteed outcome.
My advice is to write down every single thing you see as being an obstacle and then you can look at ways through or around them!
For example I'm going to use becoming a Youtube Star. An internet sensation! Pretty hard to do...right??
Obstacles
Need confidence and lots of it
Need equipment that I can't afford
Need practice
Need to learn to edit & software to use
Need good unique content to upload
Need subscribers
Need views
Need to be well promoted
Ok now we've got a list of what stands between me and becoming a top youtube star let's take a look at obstacles that can easily be overcome and how? Then we'll make a list of the ones that can't
Can
1. Confidence, this can be worked on
2. Equipment, need to earn & save money
3. Practice, need to work hard
4. Editing. Need to spend time self teaching
5. Good content. Spend time researching
6. Subscribers. Self promotion
7. Views. Use twitter to promote
8. Need to be well promoted. Further down the line I'll be signed to a network and they'll promote me
Can't
Oh! there's nothing!
This proves that if you break a goal or ambition down into smaller goals and work hard, be patient and never give up that actually you CAN do it!
A saying that represents this perfectly is:
'You can't eat and elephant' but the truth is you COULD if you cut it down into small enough pieces and ate it over a period of years!
