Quick Tips On Achieving Your Goals
Want to achieve your goals faster? Edward W. Smith, motivational speaker, author and TV show host, who specializes in quick tips on how to move your life ahead even faster, offers the following advice. First, take your top priority goal, and write out the goal to help etch it into your mind, then plant reminders of the goal in places you will see during the day. Next, set up a way to measure if you are making progress towards the goal and develop a way to get feedback on if your are making progress. Then, continually repeat the goal to yourself, visualize or daydream yourself achieving your goal, and go on record to others that you are going to achieve your goal. Use the power of positive expectations to pull you towards your goal by only viewing the goal as something that you can't fail to accomplish. With every action you take throughout the day, ask yourself if you are moving yourself towards your goal, or moving away from your goal. Next, use your feedback system to see what is working and what is not and make the necessary corrections as you move towards your goal. Finally, keep repeating these steps and your goal will change to an accomplishment. Copyright Edward W. Smith 2005 Edward W.
