Sometimes, we just don't know enough about what we are trying to achieve. Stuart Wilde
If I had a penny for each time clients ask the question....
What do I need to do to guarantee my goal achievement?
And my answer is...First, get clear about what is that you want to achieve. You may think this is obvious but, more often than not though, I find that prospective clients who come to me thinking that they are clear about what they want, in fact, are not.
How can you make absolutely sure that you are clear?
Start by asking yourself a few simple questions.
Can you succinctly state what it is that you want? Can you explain why you want this?
How will you feel when you've achieved your goal?
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?
You've asked yourself the what and why questions and you are ready for the next step....
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 is Essence?
Essence is the ultimate nature of something i.e. having $1,000,000 makes you feel secure, peaceful and confident. Really dig deep here - experience the essence.
Don't risk getting more of what you have...
Don't hesitate. You are almost there. This time pledge to understand
1) What you want, exactly
2) Achieve this goal because...?
3) How you feel now that you've got it -- the essence please!
Results that you want are there for your taking. Reach for your goals, use a proven process that works. Now is the perfect time!
Live with Passion!
