Yeah, yea, Doubting Thomas may have had a point in his day, and life may not be what you want it to be, but if you constantly doubt yourself, how can you accomplish anything? Where is your confidence? What possible good can come from taking the negative aspect of any situation and growing it into acceptance? Purpose of achievement is to attain a goal.

Along the same lines, I’ve heard the phrase, “a strong defense requires a good offense.” Simply put, if you concentrate more on gaining ground than on protecting your goals, your accomplishments will be greater. Time spent protecting your goals is wasted time, when you could be working toward attaining your goals rather than preventing others from reaching their goal. In business, if you waste your time focusing on what your competitor is doing rather than working toward meeting your goals, you won’t get very far. Focus your attention on where you’re going.
