What to Do After Writing Down Goals - Two Thoughts

Here are two thoughts that popped up in my head about what to do after you have written down your goals:

1. Have a think about how you are going to achieve your goal. If you have no idea how to proceed with your goal, do not worry because the solution will come to you soon enough. Have you noticed that whenever you think of something you see more of that thing? Opportunities are everywhere. Most people do not see them unless they are looking for them. If you be alert to opportunities you will eventually find them.
2. Do not be afraid to change and adjust goals as your life changes. For some people it may take a few years to discover their 'true' goal. Other people may find their purpose in life immediately. Life is about growth. So when you think you are not in tune with your goal, then move on and you will have renewed strength and motivation to continue on your life journey.

Persistence

Persistence is essential to get to your goal. All great and successful people have exhibited undying persistence in their lives. Every endeavor you embark upon in your life will eventually run into a difficult period and 99% of people give up during this period. Only the remaining 1% succeed. If you are going through that difficult period and you persist, you are pushing the boundaries of your comfort zone. We can only grow through resistance.

Here are some tips to encourage persistence in you:

1. Clarify your reasons for your goals. If your reason stirs up strong emotions inside you, then you will be more likely to persist at that goal.
2. Break down your goals. Take baby steps and celebrate each small achievement and you will begin to enjoy working on your goal.
3. Find a way to keep score. If you know you are moving forwards then you'll be more inclined to work harder towards your goal. However if you are moving backwards, work out why.
4. Believe in yourself. Visualize yourself achieving your goal.

Persistence is usually a key factor that separates the average from the exceptional. Think about how easy it is to be catapulted to the top 1% when you persist. You will get a major head start in your endeavor if you persist. The best thing is anyone can persist. Think about a race with 100 contestants. You can be first just by simply persisting. No knowledge or skills required. It is one the best deals you will ever get.

Start with small goals

Start with small goals before tackling big goals. Every morning, write down a mini-goal. It could be anything, from finishing off that piece of work to ordering a cup of coffee. Keep it simple at first and stick with things that are easy to accomplish. If you do this everyday, you will begin to experience the feeling of success and the power of thought.

Progress by choosing more difficult goals. These may take more than a day to complete. The more you practise the easier it'll become.

A step by step guide to getting rich

Let me tell you a step-by-step guide to getting rich.

1. The first thing to do is to write your goal down. Don't just write "I will be rich". Write every single detail down. I will earn a passive income of $10,000 a month and have 3 million dollars in net assets by the end of the year.
2. Read your goal every morning after you wake up and every night before you go to sleep.
3. Say your goal out loud. You must say it with conviction. I WILL EARN A PASSIVE INCOME OF $10,000 A MONTH AND HAVE 3 MILLION DOLLARS IN NET ASSETS BY THE END OF THE YEAR!!!
4. Visualise yourself as a millionaire. Imagine as much detail as you can. Where would you be living? What would you be driving? What would you be wearing? What would you be doing?
5. Meditate daily. This will open up your subconscious so it is more receptive to suggestion. The subconscious cannot tell between imagination and reality. So if you let your goal creep into your subconscious it will think that you have already achieved it.
6. Give thanks and be grateful for what you've got. This will plant seeds of abundance in your mind. If you think of abundance, that is what you're going to get. If you think of scarcity then that is what you'll get - nothing. Donate to charity to create an illusion of abundance and you will attract successful people in your life. Abundance will quickly become reality.
   
7. Know who the richest people are. More importantly, know how they became rich.
8. Read motivational books as often as you can.

If you have done all these steps, then getting rich will be inevitable. Remember, the law of attraction can work for any desire - not just monetary wants. If you truly believe that you already have what you want, then you will get it. The law of attraction seems like a very simple idea at first. However it is actually more difficult to practice than you think.

Truly believing in something is very different than pretending to believe. Notice how I haven't said anything about acting or taking that first physical step. If you truly believe, you need no effort to act. If you follow the steps you will act before you know it.

Success and Money

If I told you to write down your major goal in life, what would you write? If you've never given a thought to what you want in life, I could guess quite confidently that your goal has something to do with having more money. This is quite sad. Don't get me wrong, many people out there really want to have more money because they think of it as their empire. Its just that many people don't actually think carefully about it. So materialistic is our world that many people are numbed to believing: if they have lots of money, they'll be happy.

I believe that each person is unique. I belive each person has a passion. If you don't find out this passion you'll never be happy. Money is only a vehicle. A necessary vehicle. So have a think, correction: a really good and careful think, about what it is you really want. And remember, small dreams are just as good as big dreams.
