How To Achieve Your Desires With A Goal Achievement System - Part 1

How to Stay in the Game for the Long Haul by Working in Success Cycles

My mentor taught me that by working in success cycles, you will stay in the game for the long haul. Just like nature works in seasons, there are also success cycles. There is a time to learn, a time to produce, a time to harvest and reap the rewards, and a time to rest. Most people live busy lives and try to squeeze in as many activities in the day as possible. We start the day working on one project, and then we get side tracked to do something else. A few hours later, we jump back into the same project we started with, but somehow lose the momentum and rhythm to do it. We try to multitask as much as possible. I’m not saying that we should stop multi-tasking, but sometimes we need to step back and perhaps focus on one thing at a time. We should learn how to work in success cycles.

7 Factors to Consider When Creating Strategic Action Plans to Reach Your Goals

Dreaming big dreams is the first start towards achieving a fulfilling goal. The main difference between a dream and a materialized goal is that goals are specific things written down with a specific plan to achieve that. When you have a clear picture of what you want, your mind begins to look at the world differently. Through these new lenses, you begin to notice the people, resources and ideas that will help you get closer to your goal. However, if your goal is not specific enough, your mind might not know exactly what to look for that will help your each your end destination.

Live the Dream - Share the Dream

Live your abundant life, if that is what you want. Present yourself as if you have already achieved the financial success that you desire. By doing so, you will give off the aura, the image, that you are already a successful person. You will find that things come your way easier when you act successful. People see you as a person that can get things done, a person who knows where they are going, etc. Success, or the mannerisms of success, begets success.

What's your excuse?
Do you have an area of your life that you feel powerless to create success? Have you created success in other areas of your life but have one area that seems to cause you more issues than any other? If we take some time to examine this area, we will undoubtedly find one or more excuses. These excuses will override your commitment to achieving your goals.

The Winner's Edge - It Separates the Winner from the Loser

So what separates the winners from the losers? It’s having the winner’s edge. It’s the little difference that makes all the difference in the world and separates people from the rest of the pact. The winners take the potential they were born with and live up to that potential. The winners make things happen, while losers simply let things happen. The winner’s edge lies in your attitude. The sharpness of that edge will all depend on whether your attitude is positive or negative.

Are You Tired of Making Other Peoples' Dreams Come True Instead of Your Own?

Life is not a game of chance, but a game of choice. Winners determine their futures in advance. They project what they want to occur in the future, and hold themselves accountable for that. My mentors often tell me that successful people and winners create their futures, rather than live reactive lives and acting like victims of circumstances. Most people, on the other hand, spend little time creating their dreams, and use most of their waking hours making other people’s dreams a reality.

Goal Achieving Process Parts 4 & 5 - Implementation and Accountability / Repeat Process

I’m now completing my series on the Goal Achieving Process with parts 4 & 5 here. There are two major reasons why people don’t reach they’re goals – they lack action (implementation) and follow-through (accountability). You may have the biggest dreams, and create S.M.A.R.T. goals, but without taking any action and following through your goals, then it’s worth nothing at all. You need to have a means and method to implement goals, and then follow-up. This all comes as a result of accountability.

I can almost feel the same excitement I felt when they told me. I was excited to one day play in the NBA the NFL and I'd also be an all star pitcher for the Detroit Tigers. If someone would have asked me if I truly believed that I could accomplish all those things I would have said, "Of course I can, my parents told me I could do anything if I set my mind to it!" What was it that you wanted to accomplish?

Lesson #2: The Good Luck of Goals is Not Luck at All

There are many who see the vast fortune of Li Ka-shing and call him a lucky man. Indeed, some of his more superstitious Chinese peers have even suggested that Li owes his success to 1928 – the year he was born, the year of the dragon. But, Li laughs in the face of anyone who suggests his accomplishments have been the result of chance or accident. “I wasn’t lucky,” he says, “I worked hard to achieve the goals I set for myself.”

Winning Needs a Plan, Not Just a Vision

Rocky Wirtz, the owner of the Blackhawks for less than 2 years, declared that the team would be a winning franchise again. Then he took action to do something about it. He almost immediately moved to change everything about the team from the players, to home office staff, to media contracts. And just as important as winning the Stanley Cup (Congratulations Blackhawks!), is how he did it. He had a plan that had likely been formulating for years prior to his assumption of the team from his late father, Bill Wirtz. I believe that the plan you lay out to achieve the win should be as strong as your winning idea. It should be tactical, multi-faceted, well thought out, and reviewed with others. Knowing HOW to reach your goals is critical if you realistically expect to reach them.

Man always achieves the goal that he sets for himself. Always.

I have always been a person who keeps hopping around from one hobby to another. For some time I was crazy about learning how to play the guitar. And I learnt it. Then I was crazy about setting up aquariums. And I ended up with 2 of them in my house. For some time it was angling, and I spent lots of money and time indulging in it. Then I fell for flight simulators. And I learnt it inside out in much detail. Photography came up next. And I went into great detail in that too. Fitness and muscle was another of my hobbies. And I spent some time on that too. These are just to name a few. This attitude towards life made people give me the ‘What’s new?’ today kind of look.

"Efficiency vs Effectiveness"

One of the keys to my success is the fact that I am very disciplined, as a solopreneur, when it comes to the way I manage my time and energy. That has changed a bit over the past few weeks – and in a good way, in that my time was not totally my own. We all get caught up in habits and routines in our lives, both personally and professionally, and it is good practice, in my opinion, to regularly review those habits.

Think BIG - A Lesson from a Little One

Like most of us, I learned about the mechanics of goal setting early in my career. Although I learned the theory of goal setting in graduate school, it wasn’t until later in my career that I learned about the powerful psychology goal setting and how imbedding goals into the walls of our mind unleashes the real power. But it was only a few years ago that I experienced first-hand the power of thinking big… and it came at the hands of someone quite small. My oldest daughter was seven at the time. She loved to play catch with Dad. The object we threw - a tennis balls, football, one of those squishy balls - mattered little, but the challenge of consecutive catches matter very much to her.

Get Your Priorities Straight!
