Goal Setting: What Do You HAVE To Do?
Are you spending most of your day doing what you want to do?
Or, what you have to do?
Wouldn’t it be nice to do what you want to do with the majority of your day?
Are you working in the career of your dreams?
Are you living where you want to live?
Do you spend most of your day around people you want to be around?
For many of us the answer to any or all of these questions is NO. We are not quite where we want to be, and doing what we want to do in life.
You may be familiar with the saying “Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do.” This is a very nice quote. However, when I have said this to myself or someone else, it's usually because we are doing something we do not want to be doing.
The most important part of this quote is the “doing what you have to do” part.
Ask yourself: What do I “have” to do in order to “do what I want to do?”
Do you just put up with working a job you don’t really like? Or, living in a place you’re unhappy with? Do you settle with being around people who devalue you in some way?
Absolutely Not!
You are powerful beyond measure! You are valuable! You are a winner! You can accomplish whatever it is you set out to accomplish!
You have tremendous potential within to be as successful as you want to be! Here are 3 small action steps to take to insure that you will “have” what you want.

- Create a real list of the things you want. It’s important to first get your goals out of your head so you can see them, even if it’s first on paper.
- Write down and estimate when you would like to complete each item on your list. Doing this will help you to stay focused and on your intended result. A goal without a due date is a wishlist. The timeline is your gauge. If you don’t reach your goal is not reached in this time period, it’s to revise your approach or acknowledge if you have to learn more to reach your goal.
- Get Help and Support. Having an accountability partner, mentor or coach will help you to create a plan of action, stay on track and stay motivated.

Are You Conscious?
Are You Conscious of Your Words, Thoughts and Actions?
Based on the Law of Cause and Effect, the effects or outcomes you receive are a result of the causes you make. Similarly, what you sow you will reap. When you are striving to achieve your goals, it’s important to be conscious of how you are going about creating the success you seek.
There are some people who, after completing one task toward a goal they are working on, gave up after the outcome wasn't what they expected. They say things like "I just can't do it" or "I guess it's not for me to have." If you are taking specific action every day to accomplish a goal and you feel that nothing is happening, it’s very possible that the thoughts you think and the words you speak are not in alignment with your actions.
I was watching one of the singing competition shows on Television recently. I heard a contestant say "I want to at least make it to the top 5." I thought to myself, wow, for whatever reason, this person has already decided that they are not going to win even though the purpose of the show is to select one winner of the competition. While the great vocal ability of this person seem to display one who could win, their words got them very close to where they said they wanted to be. Your success depends solely on you and the choices you make.
There are a lot of factors that go into getting you from where you are now to where you want to be. Being conscious of your words, thoughts and actions are extremely important factors towards your success.
"Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the picture." -- Norman Vincent Peale
“Plan your work and work your plan. Decide in advance exactly how you are going to get from where you are to where you want to go.” – Brian Tracy

Let's talk Solutions!
I spoke to someone recently who was complaining about a problem she was facing. This is someone I haven't talked to in quite a while. She talked for about a half hour when I realized, that she never mentioned any action she could or would take to overcome the problem.
I know we all need to vent at times however, I heard the same problem from her several times before. We are so conditioned to speak more about our problems and the negative side of things. At times we may find ourselves telling everyone we encounter about our current problems.
We must realize that the more we talk and think about any problems and obstacles we are facing, the more likely they will stay around. Here are 3 simple action steps to take to help you move in a more positive direction toward creating solutions to your problems.
I know we all need to vent at times however, I heard the same problem from her several times before. We are so conditioned to speak more about our problems and the negative side of things. At times we may find ourselves telling everyone we encounter about our current problems.
We must realize that the more we talk and think about any problems and obstacles we are facing, the more likely they will stay around. Here are 3 simple action steps to take to help you move in a more positive direction toward creating solutions to your problems.
- Create a vision of what your solution will look like. You can create a vision in many ways -- through drawing, cutting out pictures or writing it out. For example if you are having a problem with your co-worker, write out a positive conversation that you could have with them. Read it daily until the problem is solved.
- Create daily affirmations regarding your solution. For example, let’s say you have writers block and a magazine publisher is expecting an article from you in a few days. Affirm that “the words for my article will come to me easily, effortlessly and right on time.” Say it as many times as you want to throughout your day.
- Surrender. The spiritual principle of surrender is not about giving up. It is the act of letting go; the acknowledgement of the power of spiritual activity. Practicing surrender will help you to stop worrying, complaining and agonizing over problems or situations. Pray, chant, mediate....surrender to your faith to let go of any thoughts or obstacles you believe are stopping you from getting your solution.
While it is important to know and state what your problems are, it is more important to talk about and focus on the solutions.
You are bigger than any problem that you may be facing and the solutions to your problems are not as far away as you think. You have the potential to create the solutions to your problems.
"Leaders think and talk about the solutions. Followers think and talk about the problems." -- Brian Tracy"
Problem Talk creates problems - Solution Talk creates solutions." -- Steven de Shazer

Do the Work
My
son asked me recently if I thought it was possible for him to fly. I said,
“Well, people fly every day in airplanes. What type of flying are you talking
about?” He said “I just want to take off and fly just as I am. You always say that anything is possible, if
I believe, right?" “Yes, however, you must understand the principles of
flying.” He replied, "Why do I have
to understand anything? I thought I could just believe I can.”
I
said "There are rules and laws you must following if you want to be safe;
there are things you must understand first.”
He said "Awww, why can't I just jump and fly if anything is
possible? I knew you were going to say that." My son has a lot to learn
about his part in the creative process. We all do. Anything is possible if you believe.
However, your belief has to be unwavering and you must take action by doing the
work that will enable you to see your desired result.
I
read a story recently about a woman who was named the first African American
woman to hold a patent for a natural hair care product. What I found
fascinating about the story was how she acquired her patent. When she realized
that she couldn’t afford to hire a patent attorney, she didn’t let that stop
her from her goal. She ended up going to the library and the patent and
trademark office and taught herself patent law. In a little over a year, she
received her patent! How wonderful!
She
believed that she would get her patent and did the necessary work to make it
so. Have you ever been in a situation
where you simply thought you couldn't do something you wanted to do? I'm sure we all have. When you find yourself
in that situation, you have two choices to make; Do nothing or Do the work necessary
to achieve your goal. Don't let anything
stop you from your goals! Anything is possible if you believe.
How
many times have you or someone you know let not having enough money, time or
whatever stop you or them from moving forward with their goals? Please realize
that whatever you want to accomplish, it can be done. All it takes is deciding
how much you want it and if you are willing to do the work.
Remember,
you have the potential inside for great success! Live Your Potential!
“You were born to win,
but to be a winner, you must plan to win, prepare to win, and expect to win.” –
Zig Ziglar

unless you do.” -- Maya Angelou

Stay Positive
Have you ever felt that it is taking too long to accomplish your goal? Have you said to yourself, "Why didn't I accomplish that goal? If so, It's possible that you may have sabotaged yourself without knowing it.
My friend and I were talking recently about the benefit of speaking positively. We are both expecting positive outcomes regarding proposals we recently submitted. While we were talking we noticed that for both of us, for some reason, there is a small tug from within to talk about the possible reasons why the outcome would not be in our favor. Why do we feel the need to speak about what we do not want? Or, why does it seem easier to speak that way.
We've all done it. You go on an interview and before a decision is made you think or talk about why you may not get selected; You speak to an investor about your new product and after you've made your pitch, and before you receive a decision, you think about what you should or shouldn't have said. Why do we most often entertain what we don't want?
Have you noticed when someone asks "How are you?", the positive responses are usually short and sweet. For example, "Great!, "I'm well," "Wonderful!," or "I'm fine." However, if the response is not so great, there is usually a reason or a story behind it. Very interesting, isn't it?
My friend and I realized that in order to have the positive outcome we wanted, we needed to constantly think and speak positively and take positive action towards our desired outcome. That's it. Anything else would be moving away from our desired result.
If you feel that your dreams and goals are taking to long or just not happening, please pay close attention to your thoughts, words and actions and make sure they are positive.
"An attitude of positive expectation is the mark of the superior personality." - Brian Tracy
If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought." - Peace Pilgrim
"Affirm the positive, visualize the positive and expect the positive, and your life will change accordingly." - Remez Sasson
