Keep focus
Any journey, be it physical or spiritual requires guidance. As for a road trip you would use a map or gps navigator without which you would lose your way. Spiritual journeys are much the same.
So as not to lose your way you must maintain focus on your goals, long term and short. Remind yourself where it is you are headed and stay true. It is all too easy to stray from your chosen path and end up in some strange wilderness from which you can find no way out.
Remind yourself frequently of your dreams and ambitions and do what you need to to move one step closer to them.
