HOW TO GET EVERYTHING YOU WANT OUT OF LIFE – PART 2

HOPEFULLY YOU HAVE COMPLETED / ANSWERED THE QUESTIONS IN PART 1. If not, it is strongly advised that you read part 1 again and consider taking step 1.

SECOND, make a special report based on your self-appraisal and include in the report everything you ever did which you didn’t think you could do. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY VITAL! It will provide you with enormous inspiration when faced with a problem you don’t think you can overcome. These are not only real-life success stories, they are your success stories, positive proof that there’s more in you than you might think. These experiences are the batteries you’ll use to power the shovels which will move mountains in the future. Remember, even an almost-dead battery will start a car. Have this report in writing and keep it with your personal analysis, and make a copy in case you lose it. This will be a vital document in times to come.

THIRD, decide where you want to go. Most people fail because they don’t set goals worthy of themselves. If they do, they do not live each day in pursuit of these goals. This, and every other step outlined here, is absolutely vital to a truly successful life. When you set your goals, make them better than you’ve done before, but make them achievable. In other words, if it is at all possible that you or someone like you could achieve the goal, it is worthy. But don’t set them too low either, or you’ll be breezing through life, bored and unchallenged. Set goals for each day, for the next week, month, year, two years, five years, twenty years, fifty years (regardless of your age).

Be definite about what you want. Write your goals down and use as much detail as possible. Make them firm… for the moment. You will find as you achieve certain things that some goals will have to change, and that’s fine. Just don’t go around changing your mind every time the wind changes or you won’t know which way is up.

Set as many goals as you like, and include among them – what you’d like to be doing, where you’d like to go, what you want for your family, what kind of person you’d like to be, how much you’d like to be earning, your net worth, your health, personality, education and spiritual growth. Keep your daily goals confined to activities which will lead to accomplishment of your long-term goals. Don’t be afraid to set goals. Mistakes can be corrected; doing nothing cannot be corrected.
