Commit To Your Goals

Do not simply try. Trying is like saying you’ll do something, unless something better comes up. Like someone saying they will try to lose weight; unless there’s chocolate cake.

You need to commit to your goals. This is like saying, “I will make this outcome happen and only death will stop me from achieving it.”

People don’t like to commit. Often the main reason is because they really aren’t sufficiently excited by the goal, that they are willing to sacrifice tv, social media, friends drinks and other stuff, for this one goal. It’s not THAT important.

Otherwise they are too afraid of failing. It will crush their ego, self-esteem and confidence. But if you truly commit, you are very likely to succeed. So you should go for it.

Commit to your goals.

Make The Time To Plan

We think about what we would like but don’t commit actual time to write it down and do the hard mental work of figuring it all out.

We need a clear destination. This can shift and change later but we need something to focus on now. Then work backwards to see what you can do to achieve your goal.

Take a few hours and doodle some notes out, to consider, as the days progress.

If you won’t take five hours over the next seven days to plan your amazing future, then whatever you get will just have to do!

Look At Your Written Goals Daily

First of all, you should have some near term and long term goals.

Secondly, you should have them written down very clearly and precisely.

Thirdly, you should look at these written goals a minimum of once per day.

Pro Move: Look at these goals 4 times per day and each time you do, read them aloud and then write them down at least once. Ideally 10 times.

This is one way to build your dream life.

If you’re committed.

Inspiring People

I met a couple of inspiring people today. Iain and Heidi are going to complete the Thames Path ultra challenge (50km) on Sunday.

Their story is one of adversity, courage, resilience, incredible determination and deep care.

Check it out here: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18GRLAvwyo/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Perhaps their story will move you to sponsor them: a small or large amount.

They are a lovely team and I wish them well from 06:30 today until after they finish and recuperate.

B+

Yes, be positive. Have a vision of a fabulous future. Feel it in your heart and in your bones. Let your soul sing.

Then use your imagination to imagine all the wonderful things you will be, do, and have that are the reasons you have a fabulous future.

Get quite specific with your imagination. Allow yourself the pleasure of dreaming big and bold. Have fun with this. Write it all down as fast as you can. Or you can dictate it into your phone notes.

Only be positive in this exercise. This is not the time or place to let doubts, worries or concerns creep in. We will deal with those later. For now, B+ and get your dream future on paper.

Plan Ahead

There are so many benefits to planning ahead. It will save you time and money. It also saves you energy and allows people to take full advantage of great opportunities.

Like a Boy Scout: be prepared.

The magic is often in the actual planning itself. You will recognise bottlenecks in advance and see how things work well before they need to.

Go on. Draw out your treasure map for the future. Plan ahead.

Find Common Ground

Great conversations find common ground. If both parties look for things they have in common, most often they will realise that there are very few things they actually disagree with.

If you begin with the belief you are miles apart, on all the issues, then you probably will be. Our minds tend to prove beliefs we hold.

But if you believe you probably have a lot more in common than you think, your brain will seek out those common points. And often you’ll find that it is true.
