The Harvard Business Review highlights the difficulties of achieving personal or professional goals when the effort does not match perceived rewards. Five business leaders share their insights on goal-setting, emphasizing the importance of understanding your purpose and breaking down long-term targets into smaller, manageable steps. Celebrating achievements, staying realistic about goals, and being open to reassessing them are crucial to maintain motivation and ensure success. Support from mentors can also enhance accountability and encourage perseverance throughout the journey.
