Sometimes, we just don't know enough about what we are trying to achieve. Stuart Wilde
The question that I am asked most often is....
What do I need to do to guarantee my goal achievement?
Get Clear, Get Clear, Get Clear... Crystal Clear about what you want to achieve. This step is often the one that most prospective clients think they have mastered but really have not. When they arrive at my office, they are surprised to find out that in fact they weren't clear at all about what they want to achieve.
So, how do you determine if you are clear about what you want?
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?
Start by asking yourself what it is that you want.
Let's say you want to be rich. Excellent. So, what does rich mean to you. Is it having a certain amount of money? A particular type of life? A particular possession?
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?
What's next... now that you know What you want and Why?
Once you determine exactly why you want to achieve your goal, establish how achieving this goal makes you feel. This part is always very enlightening. Ask yourself what your life will be like. Picture it if you are visual, feel it if you are sensory, or think it if you have a more cognitive nature. The point is get to the essence of why you want what you want.
What Do I mean by Essence?
Essence is the intrinsic properties that serve to characterize something. Achieving the particular goal that you want gives you security, happiness, joy or confidence. Take the time to identify the intrinsic properties of your goal achieved.
Don't risk getting more of what you have...
Go ahead. Take this different approach and ask yourself:
1) What do I want?
2) Do I really want it? Why do I want it?
3) What is the unchangeable, unique element of how achieving this goal will make me feel?
