10 Ways To Achieve Your Goals
1/3/2006 2:51:10 AM
Here is a wonderful article that one of our members here sent to me in an email, and I would like to share this with all of you! It is a great article of achieving goals sent to me from Adebola Oni, my dear friend! Now that it is a new year everyone will be making resolutions, and I am sure some of you may have made a resolution to do better this year than last. So, here are some great tips on how to achieve those goals! *************************************** 10 Ways to Achieve Your Goals By Joan Clout-Kruse ***************************************** Goal setting is easy. Achieving your goals is the challenge. Below are 10 techniques you can use to help you achieve your goals. Practice these goal setting techniques everyday and you just might be surprised how easy it becomes to accomplish your goals. 1. Dream great dreams and make them come true. Studies show that people who visualize “aggressively” are more successful at achieving their goals. Visualize the end-result of your dream. What does it look like? How will you feel when you get what you want? What color, size, shape, etc., it is? You must be able to mentally visualize your goal as clear and concise as possible then it is possible to achieve it. Keep it on your mind every day. In time your sub- conscious will take over. 2. Believe that you can do it. You must believe in yourself. If you do not then read positive thinking books. Take a class at your community college that will enhance your skills. Surround yourself with people who are winners and will encourage you. Many successful people accomplish their goals even though in the beginning they didn’t know everything needed to succeed. They believed that they could do it and they did. When you get stuck or have doubts push yourself to do it anyway one step at a time. Get a support partner who is willing to be there for you when you have doubts. 3. Embrace change Change is the Key to Success. Nothing happens until we make a change and do something different. Good examples are working professionals who experience a layoff. Once they get over the shock, hurt, anger, and frustration of being let go they plan their strategy for their next job. Most of the time the new job is better, more challenging, and more money than their previous job. Embrace change and great things can happen. 4. Enthusiasm is contagious. Surround yourself with enthusiastic people and let some of that energy rub off on you. You can accomplish more when you have high energy. Pay attention to your emotions the next time you are with an enthusiastic go-getter: You will get more done and you can be more than you imagined. 5. Maintain a positive attitude. Have you ever wondered why there are “blue Mondays” and “happy Fridays” at work? It is because we made it that way! If we were to change our attitude towards Mondays, such as have a casual dress day on Monday or bring in snacks, wouldn’t that change our attitude? The choice is yours—be positive. Create things in your life that will help you maintain a happy outlook in life. Everyday must be a TGIF (Thank Goodness it’s Friday) day. 6. Keep on going. Never give up. Procrastination is the enemy. Break the habit of putting things off. Do things right away. Always assume that you must do it now, as tomorrow will be too late. Do not allow obstacles to stop you from accomplishing your next step. Get help. Talk to a friend. Find someone who can help you reach your next step. Do it right away to prevent you from getting discouraged. 7. Keep failure in perspective. There is no failure except in not trying. Do not allow anyone to discourage you from achieving your goal if you believe in it, including yourself. Judge yourself by the number of times you succeed, not by the number of times you fail. 8. Focus on winning. Persistence and determination are the traits of winners. People who triumph in life refuse to be defeated. When someone says you can’t do it, what is your feeling? How do you react? Let no one discourage you—especially you! 9. Work with winners. Be loyal and stand with the people who believe in you. Ask for help and advice when needed. Support others dreams and goals. Surround yourself with like-minded people who want to see you win. 10. Just DO IT, DO IT, DO IT! Take a risk and do it. Don’t wait until it’s perfect. Don’t wait until you think you know everything. Take a deep breath, jump in and do it! Identify one of the above activities that is the most difficult for you to accomplish and work on it for one month. It will be painful at first but you will be surprised how easy it gets to be if you work on it everyday. Before you know it accomplishing your goals will become easier and easier. -------------------------------------------- Make 2006 a great year! Marilyn L. Ali
