3. Rich Person a reward.

Rewards are of import for end setting. I cannot retrieve what the wages was but our children were excited about it. We told them that if we reached the top we would acquire the wages as a family.

A head plus to any author is the ability to create, revisit and complete their goals. I continually work to sharpen my end scene claws in many aspects. From authorship to personal finance and even lifespan goals.

It begins with questions, mainly a front-runner inquiry of many people; What make I want? While this looks guiltless adequate it can snowball into a "well to make this Iodine have got to make that" situation. The this and that's go undertakings or work and quickly go overpowering so you state bury the whole thing. But should you allow the pure Numbers of your ends transport the weight enough to direct you back to procrastination? I'd rather measure them on their ain virtue and meaning.

The Usher to Setting Goals

In readying for the long-awaited 7th book of the Harry Potter series, I reread the 6th book to refresh my memory of the secret plan details. During this reading of book six, I stumbled across three powerful words - destination, determination, and deliberation.

In book six, Harry and his schoolmates are old adequate to larn apparating, the charming enchantment that lets you to vanish from one topographic point and reappear somewhere else almost instantly. (Recall your most awkward minute and conceive of how convenient this would have got been!!)

To learn apparating, the professor sketches three of import steps. First, dressed ore your head firmly on your desired destination. Next, focusing your finding on occupying that space. Lastly, move with deliberation.

Learning to apparate takes time, attempt and energy. The pupils occasionally do errors in their executing and splinch themselves. What's a splinch? A random separation of organic structure parts that happens when the head is inadequately determined. Ouch!!

To summarize up, getting where you desire to travel by apparating necessitates destination, determination, deliberation and an occasional splinch. It occurred to me that JK Rowling was possibly referring to life and the procedure we travel through in moving ourselves from one end to another and not just about disappearing and reappearing somewhere else.

Apparating seemed a metaphor for creating alteration in some facet of our life. First, when we desire a different consequence or a change, we make up one's mind what to alteration and what we want the result to be. Thus, we define our destination. Next, we find what actions to take in order to attain our desired outcome. Once we find what to do, we move deliberately, meaning enactment with intent and purpose to attain our goal. Ideally, we acquire what we want. However, sometimes, we splinch ourselves by lone achieving portion of what we intended or we undergo unanticipated growth striving along the way.

Where make you undergo this 3-part process, complete with splinching, in your life? Many countries come up to mind -relationships, finances, concern development, exercise. For example, you may have got a vision of how you desire to eat and exercise. You be after out repasts and make an exercising agenda based on your vision. Then with heedfulness and awareness, you put out to follow through on your plan. Often the program wins without a hitch. Other modern times you are swayed by unexpected goodies, deficiency of sleep, work commitments, or stress. These states of affairs make splinches that let you to learn, grow, polish your goals, develop new actions and addition your success.

When you believe about it, wouldn't it be nice to just apparate into whatever success you desire? Absolutely!! But, since phantom is not a world yet, we can travel on to utilize the three D's of destination, determination, and deliberation to take us where we desire to go.

So many choices! On any given day we make dozens, and sometimes hundreds, of large and small choices and decisions. What to have for lunch? Left turn or right turn on the way to a new destination in the car? Head to the gym, or not? Procrastinate, or get busy with that important work project?

Some choices and decisions are carefully thought out. For instance, 'how to proceed with a work project'. Others are driven by mood and attitude. You know those feelings, 'I don't feel like working on my novel because I don't feel inspired'. Or, 'I feel like giving it a go today. I am sitting down at my computer right now, and I'll do the best I can. I'm going to write three pages'. Or, 'I feel too tired to work out, I think I'll just plop down on the couch and watch some television instead'. Personally, I try to avoid that choice since I always feel better and more energetic if I overcome my fatigue and do a 20-30-minute work out. Sometimes the best course is to push past the initial 'easy' choice. When you do that you reap greater reward and fulfillment.

So many choices are made unconsciously, automatically. I think of these unconscious choices as 'sleep-walking' through the day. Consider all the choices you make with little or no thought. For instance at lunchtime do you buy a cheeseburger because that's what you always order, instead of reviewing your options and trying something new? Tomorrow try this experiment: As you make the journey through your day, really 'think about the choices and decisions you are making'. Consider the type and variety of choices that you make. How many do you actually 'think about'? How many are intuitive choices, or habitual choices, or instinctive choices? What would happen if you gave more thought to those choices?

Few things in life are free. You typically get what you pay for. I find that the quality of my life improves when I 'act' and give conscious thought to my choices and decisions. I feel more in control of my life, more optimistic, and I tend to make 'better' choices and decisions. Of course, it's not possible to spend hours and hours scrutinizing every aspect of every choice that you make - there simply are not enough hours in the day. 'Over thinking' is probably less productive than giving 'no thought' to choices and decisions. The act of choosing then adds more stress and 'worrying' to your day.

Yes, like most things there is a fine line, and balance involved, but it's certainly worth a try if it could improve the quality of your life. Tomorrow, give your choices and decisions some forethought and care. Consider 'how and why' you make choices, and how you could benefit if you actively participate in the choosing, rather than passively letting things happen. Why not start your day by choosing to have a 'great day' and by being positive and optimistic? I hope you also choose to devote some time to 'you' and your dreams, resolutions and goals.

Remember: I Resolve To Achieve My New Year Resolutions, One Resolution, One Day At A Time For One Year. It's your choice. Do it today. Turn your resolution into reality. Make your resolution a permanent Lifetime Resolution, something that's with you for good! Above all, Be A Resolutionista, someone who keeps resolutions and enjoys the journey! Let's Go For It!!

Imagine how much easier it would be to succeed in life if you were constantly expecting the world to support you and bring you opportunity. Successful people do just that. Experts on the science of success know the brain is a goal-seeking organism. Whatever goal you give to your subconscious mind, it will work day and night to achieve. To engage you subconscious mind, a goal has to be measurable. When there are no criteria for measurement, it is simply something you want, a wish, a preference, or a good idea.

To begin, measurable goals do not have to be life-changing ones. In other words, look for some early, quick wins to gain momentum and confidence that will prepare you for attaining larger goals. For example, if you are overweight and want to loose a significant amount of weight, set a goal to begin walking 30 minutes every day instead of committing to loosing 50 pounds in two months. Most people can accomplish walking 30 minutes a day. This goal can be accomplished the very first day, and the second day, and the third day, and so on. The feeling of success and happiness for meeting these smaller, but very measurable goals will lead to achieving the ultimate goal. Start with baby steps, first.

Here's a blueprint to help you set a plan and stay on track with your goal setting:

STEP 1. Develop a DESIRE to achieve the goal. The desire must be intense. How do you intensify desire? Sit down and write out all the benefits and advantages of achieving your goal. Once the list goes between 50 and 100 your goal becomes unstoppable.

STEP 2. WRITE your goal down. Once it goes into writing it becomes substantial and starts etching itself into your subconscious.

STEP 3. IDENTIFY 1) the obstacles you will need to overcome, 2) the help you will need to acquire, e.g. knowledge, people, organizations. In each case write them out in a clear list and analyze them.

STEP 4. DEADLINE your goal. Analyze where you are now in relation to the goal and then measure how long you will reasonably need to complete the goal. Then set the latest outside date.

STEP 5. Take all the details of steps 3 and 4 and make a PLAN. List all the activities and prioritize them. Rewrite the list, optimize it, perfect it.

STEP 6. Get a clear MENTAL PICTURE of the goal already accomplished. Make the mental image crystal clear, vivid in the mind's eye. Play that picture over and over in your mind.

STEP 7. Back your plan with PERSISTENCE and resolve. Never, never, never give up even when you hit setbacks.

I would love to hear about your goals and I'm here to support and encourage you in any way possible. Please share your goals with me, and in turn, I will share my personal goals with you. Once goals are shared between two people, each becomes the accountability partner for the other. When goals are written and shared, the likelihood of the accomplishment the goal becomes much, much greater.
