Sometimes, we just don’t know enough about what we are trying to achieve. Stuart Wilde

If I had a penny for each time clients ask the question….

What do I need to do to guarantee my goal achievement?

If you had to guess, what would you say that the answer is? If you guessed that you have to determine what you want, you are right. The funny thing is most people fail to
to do this step right and so they don’t focus on what they truly desire to achieve.

How can you make absolutely sure that you are clear?

If you can convince yourself of what achieving the particular goal means to you, then you’ve done it.
Ask yourself not only what you want (this is definitely a good place to start) but why you want this. What about getting this goal is important to you?

The all time favorite goal that a lot of people have is to be rich. Excellent. What is rich to you? Is it having $10,000, $1,000,000 or $100,000,000? Or maybe it is being able to take 3 holidays a year in 5 star hotels. Or traveling the world.

Great, now that you know what you want, answer why you want it? If you do want a particular sum of money ask yourself what the money’s exchange power means to you. What will you do with your new found fortunes? Will you attend more family gatherings, go to more plays, spend more time with your loved ones?

You’ve asked yourself the what and why questions and you are ready for the next step….

which is getting to the essence of why you want what you want. Understanding how accomplishing this goal makes you feel. Picture it, think of it, or simply feel it. Whatever comes natural to you, but get to the essence of why you want to achieve this goal.

What is Essence?

Essence is the ultimate nature of something i.e. having $1,000,000 makes you feel secure, peaceful and confident. Really dig deep here – experience the essence.

It may just be the time to take a different approach to goal achievement…

Skimp on getting clear and get more of what you have…Unrealized Goals. We both know you don’t want that! So, go ahead ask yourself 3 simple questions:
1) What is your goal? Be specific!
2) Why do you want to achieve this goal?
3) How will your life be different when you achieve it?

Invest the time and get clear about what you want up front. Remember that, sooner or later, you will need to do this anyway.

Live with Passion!
