Decide to be confident. Remind yourself of all you’ve done in life so far. It’s actually quite a lot.
Focus on some bigger plans and get to work. As you do, your conscience will also grow. In addition, your dreams will get closer to completion too.
No one else will.
Historically it was common for people to do what their parents did. If your parents were farmers or blacksmiths or royalty, you could quite reasonably expect a similar life.
As the Industrial Revolution advanced, new job opportunities opened up. Some people moved to cities and tried new things.
Today the opportunities to do different things is ever greater. And the more traditional jobs of many parents are eschewed.
However, sometimes we will do things because our parents wanted to do them and they we’re unable to do them for various reasons. Be mindful of this when making your own way. Don’t live the life your parents wanted. Reflect on what you want to do, what works with your values and also consider the outcomes you want 20 years from now.
You can achieve anything if you wrap your mind around it.
Achieving a goal starts with the idea. But where do you go from there? How to achieve your dream, or anything you want, comes down to a simple process.
That process is like the one for anything else in life. What are the steps to getting dressed in the morning? How does a person book a meeting with three others or a holiday for the family? When you think about it, you will notice the same steps repeating over and over again.
I have distilled this specific process down to seven steps. I have outlined and further highlighted these steps in my forthcoming book, Achieve Anything – The 7 Simple Steps to Shift from Uncomfortable to Unstoppable. You can sign up for launch updates at www.scottsbook.com.
The seven steps are Think, Overcome, Write, Plan, Act, Review and Celebrate. TOWPARC may not be the sexiest acronym but that’s what it is.
For any achievement you plan to undertake, you will need to think about it and develop a good mindset. You will need to overcome the obstacles in your path, both physical and those in your mind. Like an architect or travel agent, you will need to write out the plan so it is clear to you.
Then you make a plan to work to. This plan could involve hiring tradesmen, buying materials or getting the permit timings just right. For travel, it might involve which clothes and equipment to pack, which airport to use, transfers, hotels and even which local activities to book in advance.
Then you must act and make this plan come to life. As you progress you can review on each step you have made and make any adjustments. Few things go according to plan, so you will need to continually review it and make corrections or improvements. Finally, When you are sitting in your newly built home or enjoying your amazing holiday, remember to celebrate. Celebrate the wins that got you there and the overall win as well.
This is how to achieve your dream.
