Focus on the goal

There are multiple pathways to the same endpoint. Just because one path is blocked does not put the destination out of reach.

When you encounter an obstacle, take it seriously and consider how best to deal with it. But don’t focus exclusively on that obstacle.

Focus on the goal, on your intended outcome. Zoom out from the immediate problem and see the overall picture.

Maybe the problem at hand doesn’t even need to be solved. There could be an alternate approach that entirely avoids whatever is currently stopping you.

Just because you envisioned a specific route doesn’t mean you have to stick with it. Give yourself the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions and updated information.

The important thing is to reach your desired objective. Make that happen, no matter what you encounter, by keeping your eyes on the goal.
