We Want You To Achieve Your Goals.
July 26th, 2010
Do you have a set of written goals? Today is the day to write them down and clarify them.
Try to recall an experience where you really made great things happen in your past. Were you doubtful or did your hunches tell you it WAS going to happen for you?
You must know that you are going to be successful, before you even begin. Belive that you can’t fail. If you know it will happen in advance, you will have the drive and take action and see your dreams and goals becoming reality in your life.
But how do you get this feeling? One of the best and most effective techniques is visualization.
You probably already use this powerful technique in your life. Many of us run through things in our heads before actually doing them.
That is the power of visualization, and it is very potent. You can use it not only for your goals, but for any aspect of your life. Visualisation is something most people are unused to directing. You will find initially that your attention will wander, but you have to pull it back to the task at hand. It is similar to building a muscle up through exercise – it takes time to strengthen it.
Visualization works like this.
The first step is to decide on a goal you want to accomplish.
Second, imagine it in your head.
3) Visualise yourself attaining your goal. Use all of your senses – touch, hearing, sight, smell, and taste. Really feel your success with every fibre of your being and Know that your goal is as good as achieved.
Do this for 11 or 12 mins. Keep your thoughts happy and cheerful. Enjoy the experience. How do you feel? You may find your mind starting to think about other things. That is okay, just bring it back to focus.
Remember this movie throughout your day. In life, we get what we think about all day long. If we can keep our mind on what it will feel like after we have reached our goals, the universe will get us there. What we are really doing here is installing software on our brain that will program us for success.
Be careful who you share your aspirations with. Perhaps you are trying to get in shape and you mention it to your kids or your spouse. Not meaning to, they may poke fun and cause you to decide that you really are foolish to believe you can make this happen for yourself.
Don’t let the discouraging feedback of those around you come into this equation. Keep your goals to yourself. It will be fun to see their reaction and hear their feedback upon seeing you reach those goals. Show them. Don’t tell them.
Acknowledging Your Success
Another method for achieving your goals is to use affirmations, which means you repeat your goal again and again to yourself. This is another method of programming your subconscious mind, which is the source of all action.
You must write these affirmations of a sheet of paper for yourself. Use motivating language and make it crystal clear, with amounts and exact dates for achieving your goals. It is not enough to say you want to earn alot of money. Instead, say I will earn $10,000 per month by July of this year.
By writing down clear sentences with time limits, you are instruction your subconscious as to exactly what you want and when you want it by. It will act on this kind of clarity.
Writing down our plan to get there is the next step. What steps will you take to get there by the date you have established. What will you do each and every day to get there?
Small Steps
It is okay to have big dreams like wanting to be a millionaire by the age of 40.
This goal can be very daunting to look at, perhaps even enough for you to give up and not strive to achieve it. To overcome this, you break your goal down into a number of smaller, more manageable steps.
Any large goal can be broken down into a number of sub-goals, which can then be broken down even further if necessary. Each of the sub-goals has an associated action plan with it. Using our income goal from above, sub-goals could be to understand taxation, to understand investment, to start your own company, and so on.
Smaller goals are easier for you to handle, and help you to stay on course to your main goal. You also get the satisfaction of regularly having successes and achieving goals, which does wonders for your belief in yourself.
It is very important to re-read your big and small goals often, preferably every day. Repetition is a key factor in successful goal setting. It helps you adjust your steps and actions and make sure you are doing the things necessary along the way. Keep them with you at all times.
Everyone wants to achieve their goals, but you must do the work. Attack goal setting with belief, stay committed, plan your work and you will see your dreams become reality in your life. Make the committment. You deserve to succeed and experience your dreams.
