Mindful15: Stress Management | Mindfulness | Meditation

Episode 69 - When we set goals, we often look ahead to the finish line. We determine what we want to achieve and give ourselves a deadline by which we should achieve it. For example, your goal might be, “I want to establish a meditation habit by the end of this month.” Sometimes, we don’t even give ourselves a deadline in the future. We just expect ourselves to enact the behaviour immediately, e.g., “I am going to meditate every day.” When we fail to achieve our goal by the deadline, chances are good we’ll give up.
