The way your brain works is influenced by what you're thinking, and also by what you're feeling. So when you set a goal in life, your mind will start looking for ways to make sure that goal happens. And if it doesn't happen-- then it'll find reasons why not! We all have an "inner saboteur" as one author wrote-- which means that even with the best intentions, sometimes we sabotage ourselves before we even get started on something new.
