Today I decided to start a blog to share my ideas and experiences with the world. Since 2011 my life has changed a lot. I have had a physical transformation, mental transformation, and a spiritual transformation. Throughout this journey I have learned a lot about life and the world we live in. I have focused on helping others be the best they can be and encourage them to share the blessing.
Today, I would like to speak about goal setting and what it means to me. Now you may already know what I'm going to say and that's OK. The truth repeats itself.
Lets Begin...
Many times people set goals based on what someone feels is good for them. They are not willing to work towards it because they never really wanted it. When setting goals we must first know what we want. That may be difficult at first and that's fine. For younger individuals its very common because they haven't seen much. My advice to is to dream! Find someone that you admire and look up to and research them. Read about their life and the accomplishments. By doing so you may trigger some kind of want and desire for something that they may have did or experience.
Once you have decided on something you want begin by writing it down. I have learned that by writing them down makes it real and now it can be worked on. Many of my goals have been difficult to achieve but because I wanted it bad enough, I was willing to go through what it takes to get it. Your friends may think your crazy.... I know mine did but who cares! Its your dream and goal not theirs.
Next, you must take action on your goal. Taking action is very important, it will be the difference between living your dream or not. One of those action steps may be to remove the people that are distracting you from your work. This is very difficult because these may be people that are very close to you. Unfortunately, that is the way it is. Another action step may be creating a list a thing that you are going to need to achieve this goal. Now, don't worry about how you will gain these resources that will take care of itself. Just make the list of the needs to make this goal or dream happen.
Lastly, you must commit yourself to your dream and be willing to do what it takes to create it. No one is going to do it for you, no one will care as much as you do about it, no one is going to give it to you. YOU have to make it happen! You must and have an undeniable belief in what you want. You must surround yourself with those who think like you. This will assist in the development of resources.
This is just the beginning of goal setting and change, if you want change then you have to make the decision and not look back. Change your feelings, change your mind, change your life!
