Title: Milestones

Encouragement: Set milestones before you begin your journey and celebrate as you reach them.

Commentary: Chimney Rock in western Nebraska was a major landmark on the Oregon, California, and Mormon wagon trails heading west in the 1800's. After traveling hundreds of miles of flat, unchanging scenery, travelers noticed this landmark miles prior to reaching it. For those traveling the Oregon Trail, one-third of the journey was now complete.

Set milestones to guide you toward your goal in any endeavor you undertake. Give yourself encouragement for partial achievement of your goal as you reach each milestone. Reaching milestones proves you are capable of making progress. Onward ho!
