Focus on your plans
Once you have set your plans, you need to focus on them. Do not divert your mind because someone told you to follow their idea. You know what you want, so you need to go by your plans. Maybe you had a goal of building an underground water tank, but someone is advising you to build a swimming pool thinking that that is what you had in mind. Only do what you had planned.
Monitor and evaluate
As you work towards achieving your dreams, make sure you monitor and ensure everything is being done as required. Ensure that resources are being utilised. Evaluate your results after some time to ensure that you are on the right path. If you happen to note any problems, try to rectify them before further damage.
You need motivation; both self-motivation and motivation from other people. Sometimes you will feel like you are going to fail and even think about giving up. Never give up, keep trying until your final breath. In most cases, people give up when they have done 99% of the work. Motivate yourself that you can do it as everyone else can.
Learn from your failures
Intelligent and wise people will always learn from failures. Failure is there, and everyone can fail. Use every failure to be the beginning of discovery. Know what you did not do right and try to rectify it in the next attempt.
Remind yourself why you set that particular goal
You must have a very important reason why you set your goals. This reason should keep on lingering in your mind. When you forget why you set up a particular goal, you will lose focus and end up failing
There is no goal that cannot be achieved. All you need is to have the right mind-set, utilise resources, plan, and motivation. It is never too late to achieve your goals.
