Make your goals easier to achieve my chunking them together. (inspired by Tony Robbin's comeback challenge and RPM method)

You can have a vision and main goals for each part, then subgoals to get each of the main goals done. Over time by solving problems and chunking them together you will find that getting your goals done is more manageable. Also spend time visualizing your goals and imagining them completed (e.g. Tony Robbin's priming) so you continue to focus on them. The world may be doing its own thing but it is your job to get your goals done. Focus your resources on your goals completion. Different people will have different things to say about your goals. None of them will be entirely right. Weigh these opinions in light of research you have completed and work you have done. If you feel like your goals are being compromised and are being steered in an entirely different direction either by your actions or actions of others do what you can to turn the rudder. When faced with forks in the road determine the pros and cons. This can be taking some sort of action, whether it is starting a project or investing some money.
