7 Steps To Always Reach Your Goals

7 Steps To Always Reach Your Goals

By Peter G. James Sinclair
http://www.motivationalmemo.com

To write a goal is admirable. Few do it. But that is only the starting point.

Once you have written your goal – and I like to write it as if it has already been achieved and attach a date to it when you wish to see it achieved, it is then that the real work begins.

So what do you do next?

1. Broadcast

Declare your goal to those who support you – your cheer squad. That way you are positioning yourself to be accountable. You’re committed.

2. Dissect

Chop your BIG goals into smaller portions with progressive dates set to complete these. Little by little you are then positioned to possess the goal.

3. Plan

Create a plan, write it down, and break it up into weekly or even daily sub-goals that you need to achieve along the way, in order to achieve your main goal.

4. Excel

If you don’t achieve excellence in the small, then how on earth will you ever expect to do the big any better. Those who are faithful with the little will be entrusted with the big.

5. Evaluate

Check yourself along the road towards your goal, and if you’re not kicking small goals along the way, you may need to relook at what you’re currently doing and adjust your plan. It may require some harder, longer or smarter work along the way.

6. Persist

Any worthwhile goal is worth the effort. So don’t quit as soon as you’ve left the starting gate. Push through. Surround yourself with the people and the resources to help you to stand above the crowd because of your persistence.

7. Achieve

Never forget that the sweetest taste that you can ever taste is the sweat of a goal perceived and a goal achieved.

My Goal Setting Challenge:

Write on a piece of paper your next 12 month goals, your five year goals and your ten year goals. Type them up, shrink the typeface, print it off, and carry it in your wallet so that you can pull them out on a daily basis to read and remind you of your commitment to yourself. ACT NOW!

Be as Happy as You Want to Be

1. Be as Happy as You Want to Be

Living a happy, resilient and optimistic life is wonderful, and is also good for your health. Being happy actually protects you from the stresses of life. Stress is linked to top causes of death such as heart disease, cancer and stroke.

Happiness is actually found in everyone, increasing it is a way to make a life more wonderful and also more healthy.

To be happy is relatively easy, just decide to be a happy person. Abraham Lincoln observed that most people for most of the time can choose how happy or stressed, how relaxed or troubled, how bright or dull their outlook to be. The choice is simple really, choose to be happy.

There are several ways by which you can do this.

Being grateful is a great attitude. We have so much to be thankful for. Thank the taxi driver for bringing you home safely, thank the mailman for bringing you your mails, thank the policeman for making your place safe and thank God for being alive.

News is stressful. Get less of it. Some people just can't start their day without their daily dose of news. Try and think about it, 99% of the news we hear or read is bad news. Starting the day with bad news does not seem to be a sensible thing to do.

A religious connection is also recommended. Being part of a religious group with its singing, sacraments, chanting, prayers and meditations foster inner peace.

Manage your time. Time is invaluable and too important to waste. Time management can be viewed as a list of rules that involves scheduling, setting goals, planning, creating lists of things to do and prioritizing. These are the core basics of time management that should be understood to develop an efficient personal time management skill

Laugh and laugh heartily everyday. Heard a good joke? Tell your friends or family about it. As they also say -'Laughter is the best medicine'.

Express your feelings, affections, friendship and passion to people around you. They will most likely reciprocate your actions. Try not to keep pent up anger of frustrations, this is bad for your health. Instead find ways of expressing them in a way that will not cause more injury or hurt to anyone.

Working hard brings tremendous personal satisfaction. It gives a feeling of being competent in finishing our tasks. Work on things that you feel worthy of your time.

Learning is a joyful exercise. Try and learn something new everyday. Learning also makes us expand and broaden our horizons

Run, jog, walk and do other things that your body was made for. Feel alive.

Avoid exposure to negative elements like loud noises, toxins and hazardous places.

Relationships are essential to happiness. People are different, accept people for who or what they are, avoid clashes, constant arguments, and let go of all kinds of resentments.

These are the few simple things you can do everyday to be happy. And always remember the quote from Abraham Lincoln, he says that, "Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be

Awaken Your Dream Business And Bust Down Roadblocks With This Indispensable Component To Succes

Awaken Your Dream Business And Bust Down Roadblocks With This Indispensable Component To Success By: Dave Dee

“I’m not a teacher, but an awakener.”—Robert Frost

Does your business need a boost?

Do the six and seven figure entrepreneurial lifestyles you read about seem more like wishful thinking and pipe dreams than a reality in your future?

One of the most frequent questions we get from GKIC members is about how to apply to your own business the guidance you receive in our newsletter, live training and other resources.

Because when you operate your business in isolation, it’s easy to doubt yourself. Which may lead to you being indecisive about which ideas and obstacles to implement and conquer first.

But the truth is our most successful GKIC members haven’t done it alone. They’ve used mentors or coaching as a major part of their winning formula. In fact, every successful person on the planet has had a mentor they trust.

If you think about it, your biggest achievements in life can likely be tied to having a mentor—even if you didn’t officially call them that.

For instance, growing up, you probably had someone who proved influential in shaping your values. Perhaps a teacher, a parent, or religious leader. Maybe there is a sports coach or family friend who you continue to look up to and respect.

Business is no different. A mentor can be transformative by helping you identify what is standing in your way. They can help build your confidence, guide you to make better decisions and push you to greater heights both personally and financially.

However, like all things, there are things you need to know to help you succeed with mentoring.

Step one: Find the right mentor. It’s important to recognize when a mentor is worth your investment and how to choose the ideal mentor that is right for you.

When choosing a mentor, consider:

Are you willing and able to work on your business? Mentors will guide you, but they are not going to do the work for you. You must be prepared to put the work in, because a good mentor will challenge you and demand more of you than you will of yourself. This is a good thing, because often we don’t reach as far as we are capable of.

However, if you aren’t willing to work, then you might not be ready for a mentor.

Are you willing to invest in a mentor? Mentors or coaches range vastly in what they charge. Some charge upwards of $25K per year, while others are much less. It’s important to look at what your personal goals are when determining what you’ll spend. For instance, if you are looking to make an extra five figures a year working part time, then a mentoring program that costs $12,000 a year might not make sense. But if you are looking to make $250,000 a year, $12,000 a year may be worth the investment.

Before committing, speak with potential mentor(s) to determine if their style is a good fit for you. Have a conversation with a potential mentor prior to getting started to ask questions and find the best fit. For instance, find out how much access you’ll have, whether you will speak with them directly or just through email. Do you feel comfortable with them—are they easy going or is conversation a challenge. Do their strengths line up with your weaknesses? How quickly do they typically respond to questions? What type of time and financial commitment are they asking for and what is their cancellation policy?

After speaking with a potential mentor, if you feel comfortable with them, consider asking for the names of two or three people they’ve worked with that you can call. During calls with previous mentees, you can find out how the mentor helped them the most and find out if they would do it all over again.

Step two: Write down your goals before your first session. Prepare for success by taking stock of where you are in your business and where you’d like to go. To be as prepared as possible when you first meet with your mentor, make a list of what you feel you are good at and areas you need help. For example, do you need help with getting clients? Better productivity? Generating consistent income in your business?

Write down what you feel are your biggest obstacles so your mentor can help you create a plan to overcome them.

Step three: Prepare to work with your mentor. To make sure you get the most out of your mentoring, here are five tips:

Be prepared for your meetings. Show up to each meeting prepared with whatever materials or actions complete that you’ve agreed upon and bring something new that you have a question about, an issue with or is challenging. It doesn’t need to be a big issue, sometimes small ideas or simple things lead to big change.
Commit. Ongoing contact with your mentor is one of the keys to success. Agree on a regular time to meet, keep your appointments and do what you say you’ll do.
Tell your mentor how they’ve helped you. While your mentor might not ask for feedback, telling your mentor how he/she has been the most helpful will guide them on how to better help you going forward. Plus, saying “thank you” and sharing examples of what has worked for you often results in a mentor wanting to do even more for you without you even asking.
Discuss your expectations with your mentor. Always talk to your mentor about what you expect from him/her and what you expect from your relationship. This will help ensure you have realistic expectations. Also, to avoid having problems or being disappointed, be sure to let your mentor know if your expectations or goals change.
Be willing to go outside your comfort zone. Mentors are there to challenge you and push you professionally and personally. They are there to help you discover where your genius lies and inspire you to take risks. They are there to help you fully develop, so when a mentor asks you to do something that seems risky, challenging or out of your comfort zone…be willing to give it a try.

Mentoring might not be for everyone. But for the person who is eager to listen, eager to learn and willing to try new things, you’ll find mentoring can help you reach a level of success you would never reach on your own.

The Law of Attraction In Action

Sun, 10 Nov 2013 07:18:05 +0100

The Law of Attraction In Action

What would happen if you were suddenly bestowed with the power to bring in more happiness into your life?

Wouldn’t it be great if you could get all that you have ever desired? In case you were told from an early age that too much desire is not good for your spiritual health, then you will be glad to know that it is logically an invalid statement. We exist because of desire. In addition, you can gain a lot by cultivating the simple power within yourself, merely by employing the laws of attraction.

Desire is what keeps us all alive. It is not to be misunderstood and shunned. You must understand that man is the most beautifully designed God’s creations.

We human beings have the magic of creation within ourselves. You do not need a magic wand, a genie, or a magic potion to wield the beautiful magic within your soul!

In fact, the Holy Bible acknowledges the power of man when it says that we were created in “the image of God” and we always reap what we sow. Another line that you have surely heard is that God helps people who help themselves. In order to help ourselves, we have to realize our potential as divine beings and meditate towards attaining the level of focus and determination. A great way to do this is to create a positive feeling deep within our minds. One can do this by praying with a definite and positive bent of mind. All you have to do is visualize your desires and thank the almighty even before you attain what you desire. This will help create a bond between you and the Almighty. This will be a very effective prayer because through this you are showing your undivided faith in God. Thus, a prayer is answered best when you display unmoved faith in God.

A great and effective creative energy in the cosmos is the energy of visualization. If you can get yourself together to imagine and see the things that you desire from within your heart, they are likely to come true.

Sometimes you do it without even realizing that you are evoking one of the most powerful forces of the universe. If you can cultivate that, you will actually be a partner to God in creation!

Every thought that passes your mind, every thing you dream of, every feeling and every desire is actually like the brick and cement with which you can construct your reality. We, as human beings, are special creatures of the Almighty and we have the power to evoke things by virtue of thought energy. The thoughts have the inherent potential to become creators of reality. Once we think our thoughts and focus on them, and nurse them with emotions, we are actually accentuating the process that will make the thought a reality. The more faith you have, the better you can carve your reality from your thoughts and desires.

There is much evidence to support this argument. You have seen how optimists have things working out the way they want it to. Haven’t you ever wondered why? It is because the optimists genuinely want the best to happen. On the contrary, the pessimist has to bear with all the things that are not good, because he is always thinking about the negative. Thus, by contemplating upon the positive even pessimists can turn the tables around by concentrating on the positive.

Achieving Goals In A Recession

Sun, 10 Nov 2013 04:25:14 +0100

The problem with believing you’re in a recession is that you start to feel that you cannot achieve your goals. Recession – or any of the negative words that are associated with it – is in fact in the mind of the beholder.

You don’t need to be an economist to see that things are not all black. In fact things are never all black, any more than they are ever all white. Stop and reflect for a moment on some of the industries and people that will thrive in a recession.

If you want to achieve goals you’ve got to believe there’s a way. You have to know in your heart that you can do it and that the odds are not stacked against you. If your goal is to climb Everest, you have to believe you can get there or there’s no sense in taking a single step up that mountain.

In fact, in the current financial climate, setting and achieving goals should become even more a way of life! When winter or war comes, for example, people gather together for comfort and support. In economic bad times, what better moment to gather a team of willing helpers?

Apart from anything else, you need to believe in yourself. Set the goal that you will find a way, and you’ll achieve that goal. On the other hand, if you start with self doubt and fear, setting goals will feel futile. You must get clear that the resource that has always achieved all the goals in your life has been you – not your bank balance or your job!

Set the goal that you can always think of something that others will want to pay you for. There’s only one you, and if you remain upbeat and positive, people will want not only your help – they’ll hire you for your genial personality! Never was there a better time to reinstate “whistle while you work!” (There’s a goal you can easily achieve!)

As a little food for thought, here are some examples of industries that are probably going to thrive in a recession. If you owned such a business, what goal setting would you be doing now?

The car repair industry. Fewer people are going to buy new cars for a while, so keeping the old ones on the road becomes paramount. Mechanics and second hand car sales people are probably going to easily achieve their business goals in the coming months!

How about the cheaper end of the beauty and glamour industries? Everyone wants to feel good, and a new hair-do doesn’t cost a lot. If you like wearing make-up, a new lipstick or nail polish can lift the spirits in a jiffy for the price of a cup of coffee or thereabouts. If your goal is for a quick pick-me-up, there’s one way to achieve it, whilst helping the beautician, hairdresser or cosmetics salesperson to keep their job!

Rental things – especially real estate – will flourish, won’t it? How about home entertainment? Cheaper than a night on the town! The whole family can rent a blockbuster DVD when it would have cost four seats at the movies not to mention outrageously priced popcorn! Goal achieved? Keeping the family spirits up.

Network marketing companies always do well in a recession as people search around frantically for ways to make money in their spare time.

Now, I didn’t set out to write a list and I’m not an economist. (Thank heavens for that – they hardly can take credit for keeping us out of trouble, can they?) The reason I wanted to point these observations out to you is not because I want you to change your job – I want you to change your mind! Personal and professional goals are just as achievable in the present climate as they are at other times. You simply have to apply your adaptability skills – a resource with which you have been equipped since birth.

When people are down, more than ever they need people who are up. Why were musicals so popular during the depression of the 1920s and through the war years? Because they made people feel good, that’s why.

If you want to achieve more goals, smile at more people. Be optimistic – life will go on, and rollercoasters are for riding – so point out to yourself and to the frightened people you meet that they have almost certainly already survived many of life’s challenges. You have the resources and so do they to achieve whatever goals they set themselves.

You cannot achieve your goals by joining people in their fear. No one is helped or served by that. Think outside the box, remember at all times that you are your own greatest resource and you will be not only inspired but you will become an inspiration.

Whatever you do, don’t give up! Keep on setting and achieving goals for the rest of your life!
