Achieving your goals; Focus Focus Focus
The first few steps of this process are;
Working out what you want to achieve
Deciding to achieve it
Committing to those goals (no matter what)
Writing down your goals in specific detail.
The next step using the Law of Attraction principles is to focus on your goals. The good news is, once you complete these steps, you are already closer to your goals than you were last year.
However, this process may bring up a few surprises for you. For many years I had always thought that ‘more money’ was one of my top priorities. Then one day I started a journal and wrote down my top 20 goals in priority order. ‘More money’ wasn’t even in the top 5 and this discovery totally changed my life path. Ironically, just after I made this discovery I was given a large pay increase at work and offered a promotion, which basically meant a fancy title but didn’t involve any extra workload! Result.
It proved that I was right to get clear about the priority of the ‘more money’ goal, as earning more money didn’t actually make me any happier, but it did make my life a lot less stressful when it came time to pay my bills, which is why I didn’t take it off the list altogether.
It is therefore always really important to think carefully not just about your goals, but the priority of your goals.
So once you have a clear list of goals and their priority in your mind, you can really start to focus on them in order. Spend more time focusing on the goals that are going to take longer to achieve or will mean a big commitment to achieve, but use the smaller goals to get the feel good factor. An example of this is weight loss – if you have 50 lbs to lose, you’re not going to lose it in a week or a month, but with commitment and dedication, you could do it in a year.
However, as I always stress to my clients – when you have a mini goal of losing just 5 lbs or losing a dress size within this month, it will give you a real buzz when you achieve your mini goal and really helps you to focus on how to achieve the loss of the other 45lbs.
When you feel positive about your goals, and more importantly the results of your goals, you are using the Law of Attraction. The basic principle of which is ‘like attracts like’.
So be positive and spend time each day focusing on your goals and more importantly, the results of your goals – really think about the positive benefits of achieving what you want.
