Billy Connolly, the great Scottish comedian who now lives in California, tells an amusing story about misguided envy: In World War I two men were squatting side by side over the only toilet available.

6). Blast Through Barriers to your Goals By : Kimberly Dawn Wells
One of the reasons we do not face our goals is because when we are faced with an unexpected barrier that we're unsure how to deal with, we shut down. We become discouraged, we start making excuses, and we allow ourselves to back off of our original plan. While this is a human and natural tendency, it's not conducive to success. An important step that you can take to avoid this barrier blunder is that of carefully planning your goal to include backup plans for all those little "what ifs.

What is your target? What is your plan within 5 years? Many times when people ask us this question, we won’t be able to answer.

Hold on, I’ve got one here you can have.” Can you find happiness or sadness on the supermarket shelves, pre-packaged and ready to go?
