Sometimes, we just don't know enough about what we are trying to achieve. Stuart Wilde
The question that I am asked most often is....
How can I be sure that, this time, I achieve the goals that I set?
If you had to guess, what would you say that the answer is? If you guessed that you have to determine what you want, you are right. The funny thing is most people fail to
to do this step right and so they don't focus on what they truly desire to achieve.
So, how do you determine if you are clear about what you want?
Easy! Can you tell me in 2 to 3 sentences what it is that you want to achieve and why you want to achieve it? If you can, then congratulations, you are well on your way. But be careful here, make sure you are compelling to yourself when you say what you want and why you want it.
Let's look at an example. Suppose that you want to be rich. Ask yourself what this means. Is it a certain amount of money, or is it specific possessions such as a car or a mansion or maybe a particular life style that you are after? Be clear about what rich means to you.
Once you got clear about what you want and you established exactly what rich means to you, tell yourself why this is a worthy goal to accomplish. Why do you value being rich? What does being rich do for you? What do you want to be able to exchange rich for?
Ok, you know what you want and you know why you want it. Now what do you do?
Once you determine exactly why you want to achieve your goal, establish how achieving this goal makes you feel. This part is always very enlightening. Ask yourself what your life will be like. Picture it if you are visual, feel it if you are sensory, or think it if you have a more cognitive nature. The point is get to the essence of why you want what you want.
What Do I mean by Essence?
Essence is the intrinsic properties that serve to characterize something. Achieving the particular goal that you want gives you security, happiness, joy or confidence. Take the time to identify the intrinsic properties of your goal achieved.
It may just be the time to take a different approach to goal achievement...
Go ahead. Take this different approach and ask yourself:
1) What do I want?
2) Do I really want it? Why do I want it?
3) What is the unchangeable, unique element of how achieving this goal will make me feel?
Results that you want are there for your taking. Reach for your goals, use a proven process that works. Now is the perfect time!
Be Unstoppable!
