and feelings are what determine your actions. If you think about the outcome or benefit and your absent of any feeling for its achievement, you need to start to get excited about that achievement. You see it is the only thing that will start you on the path to success. Get excited!
The next step is defining that goal. You need to define it in words that create the picture in your mind of what it is that you want. For instance, you want to lose weight, this is always a great example. Do you want to lose weight or do you want to see yourself in a more a fit body. So what is the goal here? The goal isn't working out routinely, that is a task, not a goal. The goal is "I am a toned 150 pounds and my abs are so tight that you can bounce a coin off of them, I am strong, flexible and always energized, people look at me in amazement." Now this statement is more powerful or thought provoking than just I want to weight so many pounds. Yuk! Then set a date for when this will be achieved.
This should be followed as to why you want to achieve this goal or conquer this issue. Define what your desire represents to you. How will it make you feel? It can not be just good! You must feel "POWERFUL" "IN CONTROL" "ELATED" "FIRED UP" so that the feelings can carry you through your challenges and there will be challenges make no mistake about that. Oh no, you are not going to get away from adversity. That is part and parcel of your preparation to start on this venture or journey.
What we are doing is adjusting your thoughts and feelings. As I had said in the above paragraphs, your thoughts and feelings will determine your actions. Now comes the hardest part, keep your goals in front of you and read them over and over again at least 2-3 times a day to remind you of where you are headed. You want to avoid pitfalls, so make sure before you "do" anything that you have impressed your goal and the reason why, first. People have a tendency to skip this step, don't. If you do not impress your idea with the proper emotions first, you won't act on it.
Once you start getting a hold on this, there will be times where you can also start doing it on a dime. So quickly that your body will immediately take action to achieve your objective or goal, it will take practice, but one step at a time.
Again you can use this process on anything, just remember step one.
Setting up a support system is a great thing to do. If you want to become wealthy, don't pay attention to those who are not wealthy. You want to
