Half Measure

There’ll be times when I’ll come up with an idea and implement it briefly, only to realize afterward that it was only a half measure attempt. I’ll lose interest within a week (maybe even a day), although the idea itself was much more exciting on the surface.

It’ll be one of those “it sounds like a great idea” goal, when in fact, the effort and time required to accomplish that goal isn’t backed by the motive and willpower to do so.

In life, we change our minds frequently, and have to experiment with different ways or systems of going about things. Even our goals can be half measures if we’re not fully invested in them. We like the ends, of what they can bring us, but the work to get there isn’t something that interests us, at least, for the long haul.

But when we find goals that are we committed to and aren’t just half measures, then it won’t even seem like we’re just checking off boxes to accomplish them, but we’ll go above and beyond to get them done, and even, accomplish more than what we originally thought was possible.
