Some people look at a glass and call it half empty while
others can look at the same glass and call it half full. The way you perceive things
is vital to your goal setting and your ability to achieve them. You hear in the news about how tough economy
is and how hard times are. But, as long
as there are people, there is someone buying something from somebody, so there
are a lot of people making tons of money.
Now is your time to decide to make things work for you. You
have to change your outlook and determine to focus on the abundance all around
you. You can turn your life around this
year. With a few conscious choices and discipline, you can set and achieve some
long desired goals. You simply have to be willing to put in the work.
Say to yourself daily, “There
is abundance all around me” repeat it a few times a day and do it for at
least 21 days until it sinks into your subconscious. You’ll be surprised at how
energized and confident you’ll begin to feel about achieving your goals.
So let’s see what 5 components make up your goal setting and
achieving machine:
Of course, #1 is, set goals, and be specific as possible.
Then #2, plan a strategy for achieving them, this can be
simple if the steps are pretty clear, for example, if your goal is to become a
lawyer then you know that you have to possibly take and pass the Law School Admission
Test and go to law school. It’s pretty straight forward.
Other strategies to goal achievement may not be so clear. This
is when you have to “discover” the steps to take to achieve your goals and part
of this process is allowing yourself time to relax and visualize your goals, so
that your subconscious creative power can help guide you in the proper
direction. I know this sounds a little hokey but it actually works.
This also helps with step #3 which is build belief, if you
have a strong belief or conviction about what you are doing, it energizes you
and gives you the strength to continue to pursue your goals even when obstacles
arise. Belief is extremely powerful.
#4 is develop
strengths. If you know that you are lacking
in some of the skills or knowledge needed to achieve your goals, take the necessary
steps to gain that knowledge. Study the
experts, read, take classes and do whatever is required to help you gain the
skills and knowledge necessary to make your goals a reality.
Put in the work!
And last but not
least, #5 continually manage your progress and your process. ..review, proceed,
revise and recycle. Review your goals
regularly, check where you are and forge on to the next step. Revise your goals
if necessary, there may be a few things you need to change as you
progress. And recycle, sometimes things
happen that put certain goals on the back burner. It might be time to re-energize them and rev them
up again.
Stay focused; keep your goals in the forefront of your mind this
year. Practice these types of goal setting activities and you’ll be surprised
at how much you accomplish this year!
