From Goblins to Giants: THE ART of BUILDING SUCCESS.
Listen to this Insight
<p>As the New Year approaches, it's easy to feel inspired to aim for the stars. Grand resolutions like “build a business empire,” “run a marathon,” or “write a bestselling novel” dominate our lists. And while <strong>ambition is powerful</strong>, we often overlook one crucial truth: <em>even the greatest journeys begin with small steps.</em></p><p><br></p><p>Think of Sung Jin Woo, the underdog hero from the popular Anime: Solo Leveling. He didn’t start out battling dragons or commanding armies of shadows. No, Jin Woo began his journey by facing goblins, gremlins, and lycans which seemed small but were essential steps in his growth. Each battle, no matter how minor it seemed, prepared him for the titans he would later conquer <em>(I'm sorry for the spoiler if you're an Anime fan 😂🙏🏼).</em></p><p><br></p><p>This is the lesson we can take into the New Year. Before setting your sights on the Giant (those seemingly insurmountable goals), START WITH THE GOBLINS!</p><p><br></p><p>Want to write a novel? Begin with a single page a day. Dream of getting fit? Start with a short walk or a few push-ups. Aspiring to build wealth? Begin by mastering a budget or saving a small portion of your income.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>"Small victories breed Confidence, Confidence fuels Momentum and Momentum drives Success".</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Jin Woo’s journey reminds us that true growth isn’t about sprinting toward the finish line it’s about leveling up steadily, one step at a time. <strong>By slaying the "goblins" of your Goals, you equip yourself with the skills, resilience, and mindset needed to face the giants when the time comes.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>So, as you step into the New Year, don’t you dare let the size of your dreams intimidate you. Break them down into manageable pieces, focus on progress over perfection, and remember: <strong>slaying Goblins today sets you up to conquer Giants tomorrow.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Here’s to a year of steady growth, powerful transformations, and eventual victories. Start small, aim high, and keep moving forward. Cheers to Progressive Growth. 🥂</p><p><br></p><p><em>PS: If you haven't seen Solo Leveling then you should. Trust me you'd love it. ✌️😌</em></p>
