I try to keep the desired end result in mind, but to focus on the journey. I have to start doing things *now* (even on a small scale) which will be the norm when I arrive at the end destination. 

That is a learning curve, I know there will be mistakes, sometimes things will go south, but I try to remind myself that it is part of the journey. Everything about learning isn't always fun, but when you master what you learn, that progress is very motivating.

I don't think you'll ever fully arrive at the ultimate goal for your business, because achieving one goal often becomes the beginning of the next goal.
