Oh absolutely. No one becomes an ace at anything overnight. You have to have those little mini goals, otherwise the final bit will seem all but impossible.

I feel like people forget the second part though. Most people set these really large goals, and then get upset when they don't complete them. I think the biggest reason for loss of motivation is just not seeing any short-term gains that's why it is important to keep reminding yourself that progress is being made.
