Today&#8217;s adventure is something I am very aware of, Mile Markers. As a trucker, I keep close attention to mile makers, as they help me progress to my next destination as well as gauge how far I have to go to get there. Miles and time. We all have mile markers- Kindergarten, Middle school, High school, College, 1st job. See, I know I hit one for you, but you have lots more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mention: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/mile-marker\">https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/mile-marker<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tse1.mm.bing.net\/th?id=OIP.sI9feT_DD2-36HUqnUhX1wHaE6&amp;pid=Api&amp;rs=1&amp;c=1&amp;qlt=95&amp;w=167&amp;h=111\" alt=\"6 Vital Navigational Road Signs You Must Be Familiar With\" width=\"232\" height=\"154\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tse1.mm.bing.net\/th?id=OIP.Jj2ch4rV5Zfq0eTGI6ktEAHaD4&amp;pid=Api&amp;rs=1&amp;c=1&amp;qlt=95&amp;w=195&amp;h=102\" alt=\"Answer Man: Why does MoDOT use so many mile-marker signs?\" width=\"233\" height=\"122\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In business, as well as Life, I have set my sights on different mile markers. Keeping focused is another story. I have to practice every day to keep going forward toward my mile marker. I set small goals every day. I don&#8217;t take big leaps, but small skips. 10 small skips = 1 big leap, plus, skipping is more fun.  Mile markers are coming and going whether we want them to or not. You either embrace the moment or fight it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mention: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblicalleadership.com\/blogs\/how-to-use-lifes-mile-markers\/\">https:\/\/www.biblicalleadership.com\/blogs\/how-to-use-lifes-mile-markers\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Henry David Thoreau said it well, \u201cLive deeply and suck the marrow out of life.\u201d<\/strong> Too often, we spend our lives trying to hang on past the shelf life of the good experiences\u2014and either ignoring or giving away too much emotional energy to the bad ones. Life undulates. Learning to flex with it by realizing there are another 200 yards can actually give us hope, to reach our next mile marker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mention: <a class=\"keychainify-checked\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lifehack.org\/884369\/keep-track-of-goals\">https:\/\/www.lifehack.org\/884369\/keep-track-of-goals<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.pixabay.com\/photo\/2015\/11\/06\/13\/26\/chain-1027864__340.jpg\" alt=\"Chain, Strong, Protection\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Visualize the \u201cChain\u201d. The idea is that every day you stay on track and work toward your goal, you mark the calendar (or your journal or whiteboard), and then you keep going until your goal is met. Your only job is not to break the chain. Remember: One day\u2019s success might not seem all that important. But people meet goals little by little, one small success at a time. By keeping your progress visible, you\u2019ll gain motivation and build momentum toward the finish line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Celebrate Your Wins: Most of us don\u2019t count \u201csmall wins.\u201d We save the celebration when the end goal gets checked off the list, that\u2019s a problem: \u201cMost of us make advances small and large every single day, but we fail to notice them because we lack a method for acknowledging our progress. This is a huge loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tse4.mm.bing.net\/th?id=OIP.2WxmvkI5N5RjGk_hOwpaSQHaJ4&amp;pid=Api&amp;P=0&amp;w=300&amp;h=300\" alt=\"\" width=\"269\" height=\"359\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Create a Reward System: For some people, the rush of crossing something off the list (or in this case, marking the calendar with a nice, big \u201cX\u201d) is enough motivation to keep going. However, if building in&nbsp;your own reward&nbsp;to your goal process will boost your inclination to keep going, then find a way to put a little \u201cbait\u201d in your line of sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.pixabay.com\/photo\/2019\/06\/16\/21\/48\/cups-4278774__340.jpg\" alt=\"Cups, Prizes, Trophy, Awards, Prize, Cup\" width=\"353\" height=\"235\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Find an Accountability Buddy: By sharing your goals with someone else, you\u2019re essentially making a commitment. You\u2019ll be less likely to make excuses that derail you when you know someone is going to check in with your progress. That\u2019s because having no progress to share feels like letting that person down, and it never feels good to disappoint someone. Plus, when you\u2019re expecting someone to check in with you on a regular basis, you\u2019ll have all the more reason to keep track of your goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/contactlistbuilder.com\/mjlipsey59\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2020\/08\/20190329_125917_1553878806981-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-459\" width=\"226\" height=\"301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/contactlistbuilder.com\/mjlipsey59\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2020\/08\/20190329_125917_1553878806981-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/contactlistbuilder.com\/mjlipsey59\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2020\/08\/20190329_125917_1553878806981-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/contactlistbuilder.com\/mjlipsey59\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2020\/08\/20190329_125917_1553878806981-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/contactlistbuilder.com\/mjlipsey59\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2020\/08\/20190329_125917_1553878806981-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/contactlistbuilder.com\/mjlipsey59\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2020\/08\/20190329_125917_1553878806981-1200x1600.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/contactlistbuilder.com\/mjlipsey59\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2020\/08\/20190329_125917_1553878806981-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 226px) 85vw, 226px\" \/><figcaption>Set your mile marker, visualize it, start forward, keep going, NOW YOU ARE THERE.
