Question

why is a long-term goal challenging ?

Answer 1

The challenge with a long term goal is that it can seem so far away - weeks,months, or even years - that it doesn't feel quite so detrimental to put off processing.

Long-term business goals refer to the overarching vision you have for the future of your business. They bring to mind looking far into the future and imagining what success should feel like rather than acting in the here-and-now to get something done this week.

Long term goals require many short-term goals to stack up and to be accomplished along the way to reaching long term goals. You can consider short term goals your stepping stones to reaching the long-term goals.

Long term goals you can also refer to as “stretch goals”.
