The start of the new year is riddled with new years resolutions, commitments and ideas of change. There are many opposing views on this… Some say it’s BS and a waste of time, other say it’s imperative and a must in order to get the most out of the year ahead.
I say now is as good a time as any, new year, middle year whenever! If the new year is a trigger for you to kick life up a notch why not... if something kicks you in the face some random time in the year,... just as good!
There are a few things I would add to the equation though to make the resolution into something that you stay committed to and is something that you pursue with the intent it deserves to get you to what you want.
So if you’re reading this you most probably already have an idea of that something that you want. It could be something physical like a car or a house or cash in the bank, or it could be something that you want to do or even not do like not being a smoker anymore… whatever it is, you probably have the goal in mind and backed up by some kind of action.
So how do you know what action to take to reach this goal or target that you want to reach? What are the steps you need to take?
Whatever it is there is an answer that will give it to you. That answer comes from asking yourself a question, and that question MUST be answered as REAL and HONEST as you can get with yourself.
Who must I become where the next logical step will be for me to …
-not smoke anymore
-buy the house on the beach
-spend more time with my family
-eat healthy
-work out daily
{fill in your target here…}
Who must I become where the next logical step will be to acquire or do that certain thing that I want.
Who must you be where that target or goal you want is nothing more than the next step you are taking, where it is part of who you are and part of your life. Where it is LOGICAL that you WILL acquire it because that is who you are and how you live your life.
-How will I act
-What will my habits be
-What will I think
-What will be my predominant emotional being
-Who will be supporting me
-Who will be opposing me
-What resources and systems will I have in place
-What knowledge will I have gained
-What actions will I have taken up to then
-What will I have created
{We can break these down into much finer detail and I want you to get the idea..}
If you honestly and truthfully answer that question backed up by taking the action required to be that person, the next logical step will be for you to have everything you want.
So go now, write it down and start the journey to getting whatever it is that you truly want.
