How to Achieve What you Want in Life in 4 easy Steps

If you truly want to become successful, you need to have the right attitude and mindset to achieve. There are several ways to do this and you may be surprised to learn that you have everything you need within in to achieve what you want.

Step 1 - Begin with the End in Mind

Importance of Visualization

The goal starts from within. You need to have a burning desire and passion for the things that you want to achieve. This way, you will constantly store the thoughts and ideas in your mind, which will lead to your success. If your desire is weak, the results that you get will also be weak or delayed, because you won't feel compelled to take action . First of all you need to be very clear about what it is that you want.

Visualize yourself being successful in your objectives. The attitude of the mind is highly important to subconsciously control your actions towards the achievement of your goals. You can keep pictures of things to help you visualize.  Look through magazines or try surfing the internet and look for the right images that will put you on the right track. You may want to consult a professional to help you visualize if you have difficulty.

Step 2 - Creating Your Action Plan

Next, you need to create a list of things that you need to do to achieve your goals. It is vital that you create the action steps that will ultimately lead to your main goal. For example, if your goal is to get rich, you have to set steps such as saving money, investing, working extra hours, building connections, etc.

It is recommended that you make your goals specific and write them down e.g. "To earn 1 million dollars",
instead of just "Being rich." You should also be specific about the action steps. You can write down "Save 10 dollars everyday", instead of just "Save more". You should also create a time line wherein you can finish tasks right on schedule. You will avoid procrastination and barriers to success if you push yourself more by setting deadlines.

Step 3 - Think of Benefits or Consequences

Aside from writing down the list of your goals and action steps, you will also want to include the advantages and consequences once you reach them. For example, you can put "Buy a new Ferrari", "Managing my main office nemesis", etc. These specific advantages will motivate you more. You can also include the consequences should you fail or delay by writing down things like "Lose my house", "Disappoint my wife", etc.  Being clear about the benefits of achieving your goals and the consequences of not achieving them will further build your motivation and desire to take action and succeed.

Step 4 - The Right Attitude

You need to have the right attitude that will help you stick to your goals. The most important are consistency,
patience and discipline. Consistency describes the work you put in to achieve the results you've always desired. Patience talks about waiting for the right opportunity and persevering despite some disappointments. Discipline means giving up some immediate gratifications so you can get bigger and long lasting benefits in the end.

You can practice the right attitude by talking to very successful people and finding a partner who can motivate
you during times of trouble. It is important that you check your list every now and then and make the necessary adjustments over time. Changes may occur but you have to stay with the goal, even if the plan is flexible and altered.

Enjoy achieving your goals,
