Progress vs. Goals: Which Works Better?

It’s better to make progress than to meet a goal.

You will tell me, there are goals, that need to be done, to make other goals start.

Let’s break this down.

Goal: Buy $35 shoes to use on exercises to make progress toward living a healthy life.

1. Wait for $35.
2. Use that $35 to buy shoes.
3. Use the bought shoes for running.
4. Make progress toward living a healthy life.

Progress: While waiting to get paid $35, why not borrow shoes from a friend.

Start running and make progress toward living a healthy life.

When the money comes, buy the shoes, and meet the goal.
