But we can also recall those instances where we endeavored to go forth alone and then gave up because we lacked the direction and support we needed. We found ourselves stuck in a place we didn\u2019t belong but also didn\u2019t have the encouragement or advice to get ourselves unstuck.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine having a\u00a0supportive partner in those situations where we lacked the resources, both mental and emotional, to stay on the right path.\u00a0 Recent research\u00a0has shown that simply stating goals are largely ineffective, writing them down had only slightly better results, but having a partner proved by far the highest success rate in goal achievement.<\/p>\n<p>Examples of this working partnership could include: job hunting or changing careers, learning a new skill, writing a novel, becoming a better speaker or listener, starting a business or planning retirement, getting out of debt, dealing with a difficult workplace issue, breaking a bad habit or making a significant lifestyle change.<\/p>\n<p>The list is endless of possible scenarios where having a trusted partner on your side would have made all the difference. Going it alone is certainly an option, but consider how well that has worked for you in the past. If you truly want to stay the course this time and ensure your success it is okay to admit that you could use some serious help.\u00a0 Find your trusted partner who will support you and you will have much greater success in making it happen.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/ourlifepurpose.com\/?p=483&amp;share=facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" id=\"sharing-facebook-483\"><span>Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/ourlifepurpose.com\/?p=483&amp;share=twitter\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\" id=\"sharing-twitter-483\"><span>Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-linkedin\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"share-linkedin sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/ourlifepurpose.com\/?p=483&amp;share=linkedin\" title=\"Click to share on LinkedIn\" id=\"sharing-linkedin-483\"><span>LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/ourlifepurpose.com\/?p=483&amp;share=pinterest\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\"><span>Pinterest<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-stumbleupon\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"share-stumbleupon sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/ourlifepurpose.com\/?p=483&amp;share=stumbleupon\" title=\"Click to share on StumbleUpon\"><span>StumbleUpon<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-google-plus-1\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"share-google-plus-1 sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/ourlifepurpose.com\/?p=483&amp;share=google-plus-1\" title=\"Click to share on Google+\" id=\"sharing-google-483\"><span>Google<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/ourlifepurpose.com\/?p=483&amp;share=email\" title=\"Click to email this to a friend\"><span>Email<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class='sharedaddy sd-block sd-like jetpack-likes-widget-wrapper jetpack-likes-widget-unloaded' id='like-post-wrapper-64841909-483-69e04a1230942' data-src='\/\/widgets.wp.com\/likes\/#blog_id=64841909&amp;post_id=483&amp;origin=ourlifepurpose.com&amp;obj_id=64841909-483-69e04a1230942' data-name='like-post-frame-64841909-483-69e04a1230942'><h3 class='sd-title'>Like this:<\/h3><div class='likes-widget-placeholder post-likes-widget-placeholder' style='height:55px'><span class='button'><span>Like<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"loading\">Loading...<\/span><\/div><span class='sd-text-color'><\/span><a class='sd-link-color'><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most of us can recall those times when we succeeded due to the impact of a mentor, a guidance counselor or perhaps an understanding spouse who was by our side as we undertook some personal endeavor.
