According to Entrepreneur magazine’s Natalie Bounassar, on such a metaphoric road trip you should also aim to meet smaller, more immediate goals that build on your efforts to reach that final successful destination. “Before venturing out, you might decide to stop a quarter of the way along for food, then at the halfway point for gas, at the two-thirds mark to stretch and perhaps 100 miles beyond that for more gas.” Bounassar suggests labeling the goals on your personalized road map as either immediate, intermediate or as a stretch goal.
