The Magic of Writing Goals in your life!
By Tal Fighel
Goal setting is an important technique used by athletes, successful
business-people, lawyers, doctors, and great achievers in all fields. Goal
setting is a very powerful technique that can yield strong returns in all
areas of your life. Goal setting can help you grow in life. It can help you
achieve more.
So what do you need to do first? You need to define a goal. You need to
know exactly what you want, when you want it, and why you want it. What ever
your dream is. That is your goal. If you don't know exactly what your goal
is, you will not commit to it. You will not have enough of a desire to
achieve it. Successful business-people know exactly what they want to
achieve in business and they make goals a top priority.
When you do write your goals down, you need to ask yourself one important
question. Is this goal realistic? Is it attainable? Do you really believe
that you can reach it? Faith is also an important ingredient that can make
or break your goal. If you don't believe that you can make your goal a
reality, then you probably won't. You need to have faith in yourself. You
need to have faith in your goals. You need to have faith that you can reach
any goal that you set.
This little girl had a dream to become the queen of England. She told
everyone that she was going to achieve that goal. Do you think that she can
achieve it since she has nothing to do with the royal family? Obviously not.
It was a foolish goal. You need to make sure that your goal is realistic,
and attainable. Now, if it is realistic then you need to put the proper date
on it. The proper action that needs to be taken. You have to do everything
in your power to make that goal come true.
So don’t put unrealistic dates on your goal. That is when you can get
frustrated. If you are in MLM, you need to find someone who has reached what
you are striving for and do exactly what he or she is doing.
You then need to determine what price, what’s the worthiness of that
goal. What level of importance are you going to put on it? Is it a want? Is
it a need? Is it, “It would be nice to have it”? You need to make that goal
a burning desire. You need to make it a must. It is a “Have to have it no
matter what” goal. If you do that then you’re your subconscious mind will
look for ways to make that goal a reality. It will give you ideas on how you
should go about to achieve it.
Now, short-term goals are usually simpler and easier than long-term
goals. Why? Well, writing them can help you have more frequent victories,
and building momentum with each one you complete. If you do that, you can
have more excitement and more motivation as you reach those goals on time.
When you do reach you short-term goals, don't forget to reward yourself and
celebrate. Buy new clothes that make you feel like a million bucks. Make a
toast to yourself for reaching that goal. You should be feeling so good that
you are telling yourself that you can reach ANY short-term goal that you
set.
A word of warning for the long-term goals that you make. It will be
harder to achieve it because as the time goes by, you can get discouraged
and lose your interest. Try to set short-term goals. It will keep you more
focused and motivated.
If you haven't achieved your short-term or long-term goal, you will need
to look at your goal and change the date, and the action that you have taken
when you didn't reach that goal. Remember, if you take the SAME action that
led you to failure then you will probably get the SAME results. You need to
take a look from all angles to see what you did and what you can change.
