Progress

By Mike Monahan, executive director and CEO of Life Success Seminars, Inc.

Progress can be a tricky little devil because it can be deceptive. People often give up because they can't see an immediate result and they decide that they aren't making progress. I also see people give up because they think that things aren't moving fast enough.

Your life is the result of the accumulation of a lot of little decisions. If you put all those little decisions together, you either have some great results or some not-so-great results. Either way, you've made progress.

If you consistently take action in the direction of what you want, you will make progress. Just make sure you really know what you want so your progress isn't in vain!
