Sample Text
Pursuing unattainable goals is a tremendous time waster.
We commit time and resources to planning and attempting to accomplish
something that can never happen, no matter how hard we work. There's no return on
such investments, only total losses. Unattainable goals set us up for
failure. These failures frustrate us, undermine our self-confidence, and
generate negative, can't-do attitudes. They don't teach us any new skills — only
what not to do. Sometimes we don't realize the errors, so we blame
other people for our failure to achieve these goals that nobody could have
achieved.
It's easy to follow, isn't it?
