We often have all the best intentions, but many times our goals are pushed to the side while the day-to-day tasks take over. The first hurdle often lies with taking that crucial first step where we grapple with uncertainty and self-doubt before gaining any momentum. Constantly changing priorities, motivation and confidence can also hinder our progress. Overcoming these challenges requires developing a supportive environment and cultivating intrinsic motivation to start and maintain progress towards our goals.
