Let’s create new hope and new goals this coming year! As we are kicking ourselves for letting uncontrollable circumstances anchor our lives this year, let’s focus on what we can control this coming year. Here is a great quick list to help you win with what you do have control over – you, your health, and your choice to keep moving to create the life you desire.
Success is Planned
As all great success warriors know, true success is planned. They know that success is not usually obtained overnight nor by chance. So they carefully calculate and plan their success, beginning with the end goal in mind.
With the new year on the horizon, we would like to share five valuable lessons that we had learned about turning goals into reality. These are wonderfully outlined here, as shared with us by Robin Sharma.
Valuable Lessons For Success
1. CELEBRATE
The first step is to take some time to sit down quietly and look back upon 2020 and think about all the things that happened this year. Write an inventory of successes, wins, achievements, and magic moments, big and small, that you had over the last twelve months. When doing so, remember we have all had struggles and set-backs. The important lesson is to focus on the positive, no matter how small. Leave the negative in the past. This exercise will help you build confidence, growth, energy, and appreciation for your life.
2. EDUCATION
Take time to reflect. What are the three best lessons that you learned from this past year? What were you doing when you achieved your best results in 2020? If you have to go back further, do so.
With better awareness, you can now make better choices in 2021 and achieve better results.
3. CLARIFICATION
As Robin Sharma says, “Clarity precedes mastery.” Get very clear about what needs to happen for you to have the best year ever in 2021. These goals need to be crystal clear to be able to set action steps.
When you have a target to aim for, your excitement for the year and all the greatness you will achieve are produced as you are approaching and hitting the mark.
4. GRADUATION
Take your goals that you’ve just set and graduate them into a plan. Make sure to take your goals and chunk them down into month by month or even smaller achievable and motivating plan.
5. VISUALIZATION
Your mind cannot tell the difference between reality and visualized experience.
Have you ever thought about a time when you were really upset or angry, and your physiology changed as it was like you were living the event over again? This is because your mind is so powerful that it creates the reality that you visualize. It is also the secret of all Olympic athletes as they visualize their race with their desired outcome.
Be careful what you focus on and think about because most often, it becomes your reality.
Visualizing your life as you want it to be, ties you to it emotionally, and engages your senses.
Take five minutes every morning and visualize your day with color, details, and clarity. With practice, you will be able to visualize your month and wonderful year. If you believe it, you will see it.
