Quick and Easy Way To Achieve Your Goals.

Sometimes, we just don’t know enough about what we are trying to achieve. Stuart Wilde

The question that I am asked most often is….

How can I get my goals achieved?

Get Clear, Get Clear, Get Clear… Crystal Clear about what you want to achieve. This step is often the one that most prospective clients think they have mastered but really have not. When they arrive at my office, they are surprised to find out that in fact they weren’t clear at all about what they want to achieve.

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?

The all time favorite goal that a lot of people have is to be rich. Excellent. What is rich to you? Is it having $10,000, $1,000,000 or $100,000,000? Or maybe it is being able to take 3 holidays a year in 5 star hotels. Or traveling the world.

Next, ask yourself why you want this. Let’s say that you’ve established that rich, to you, means having $1,000,000. Ok. Why do you want this $1,000,000? I am sure that you do not want to simply amass bank notes. What do you want this money for? Is it that you want to exchange the money for luxury vacations, or to become debt free, or buy the home you always dreamed of…go ahead, you fill in the blanks.

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 exactly 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.

You know that doing what you’ve always done gets you more o what you already have…undesirable result.

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!

Invest the time and get clear about what you want up front. Remember that, sooner or later, you will need to do this anyway.

To Your Continued Success and Passion!
