This editions article is

“Clarity, Clarity, Clarity”.
Your success in business and life will be largely determined by how
clear you are about what it is you really, really want.
The more you write and
rewrite your goals and the more you think about them, the clearer you
will become about them. The clearer you are about what you want, the
more likely you are to do more and more of the things that are
consistent with achieving them.
Meanwhile, you will do fewer
and fewer of the things that don’t help to get the things you really
want.
Here, is a simple,
seven-step process that you can use to achieve your goals faster and
easier than ever before.
First, decide exactly what
you want in each area of your life. Be specific!
Second, write it down,
clearly and in detail;
Third, set a specific
deadline. If it is a large goal, break it down into sub deadlines
and write them down in order;
Fourth, make a list of
everything you can think of that you are going to have to do to
achieve your goal. As you think of new items, add them to your list;
Fifth, organise the items
on your list into a plan by placing them in the proper sequence and
priority;
Sixth, take action
immediately on the most important thing you can do on your plan.
This is very important!
Seventh, do something
every day that moves you toward the attainment of one or more of
your important goals. Maintain the momentum!
Fewer than three percent
of adults have written goals and plans that they work on every
single day. When you sit down and write out your goals, you move
yourself into the top 3% of people in our society. And you will soon
start to get the same results that they do.
Study and review your goals
every day to be sure they are still your most important goals. You will
find yourself adding goals to your list as time passes. You will also
find yourself deleting goals that are no longer as important as you once
thought. Whatever your goals are, plan them out thoroughly, on paper,
and work on them every single day. This is the key to peak performance
and maximum achievement.
Your action steps – do it
NOW !
-
Make
a list of ten goals that you would like to achieve in the coming
year. Write them down in the present tense, as though a year has
passed and you have already accomplished them.
-
From
your list of ten goals, ask yourself, “What one goal, if I were to
accomplish it, would have the greatest positive impact on my life?”
Whatever it is, put a circle around this goal and move it to a
separate sheet of paper.
-
Now,
practice the seven-step method described above on this goal. Set a
deadline, make a plan, and put it into action and work on it every
day. Make this goal your major definite purpose for the weeks and
months ahead.
Get
ready for some awesome changes in your life. |
