How To Achieve Your Goals
The first step, of course, is to set them. You can't get anywhere if you're not heading in that direction. Intention is essential. The second step is to achieve them. Many people do get down to setting goals, but they don't achieve them. A goal set in motion will be achieved...unless, you stop thinking and acting on them. It's that simple. For some reason people believe that the size of the goal is what makes it more possible. They also believe that they have to have the resources to achieve the goal. This "realistic" thinking, however, has nothing to do with goal achievements. The history of goal achievers shows that almost anything is possible. People have overcome illnesses considered incurable; impoverished people, with no money, contacts, or opportunities, have become millionaires; and those with little or no observable talents have become world-famous performers. The only thing that stops a goal from realization is you. When you understand even a little about quantum physics and how the brain works, you'll come to understand that nothing is impossible. Your thoughts are the most potent things on earth. If they are positive, they flood your body with the right chemicals to produce euphoria and energy. If they are positive, they attract the people, circumstances, ideas, and opportunity that you need. A carpenter longed to build skyscrapers. He learned how the subconscious mind can broadcast his goal until they attracted the right opportunity. One day, he went to work for a wealthy contractor. This gentleman became his mentor. He taught him how to raise capital, generate contracts, and all the other details of setting up lucrative projects. The carpenter prospered and eventually was able to move in circles where he was able to build skyscrapers. If you create the right mental environment, you will create the right physical environment in which you cannot fail.

Left Your Job ?On A Matter of Principle?! Now what? Let's get started with the emotional part! 5 Good Ways to Make Steady Progress on Your Goals & Projects 1. Schedule a specific time and day to work on the goal ? just as if it were an appointment. Don't just wait for "someday" to work on it. It will always get bumped by more urgent (but not necessarily more important) tasks unless you make it a priority. Carving out a specific time to work on the project will make sure it finds its way onto your to-do list. New Years Resolutions? Dont Be So Hard On Yourself Have you set resolutions for yourself to accomplish in 2005? Maybe you want to get more exercise, eat healthier, or spend more time with your family. If you're in business for yourself, maybe you are thinking about hiring a bookkeeper, working fewer hours, or beefing up your marketing plan. All of those things are very good goals, but how do you really feel about them? If you're like me, you probably think that you need resolutions, and furthermore, you have to accomplish all of them in order to be successful.

Jules Obtains the Jewels Jules Asner, the current cohost of E! News Daily, along with Steve Kmetko, had a golden opportunity to be the first one to host E!'s "Wild On" adventure series. The series was originally titled "Sex on the Riviera." When Eleanor Mondale left the show, Jules filled in and ended up hosting "Wild On" for a year and a half. The "Wild On" series takes viewers around the world and shows them that there are OTHER extremely wild people besides Americans doing extremely wild stuff. Yes, Brooke Burke DID have a predecessor. Although in an interview, Jules mentioned that she was reluctant to host the "Wild On" adventure series. She wasn't sure if she wanted to put herself through the dangerous demands of para-sailing, for instance. By the way, her para-sailing adventure was one of her scariest moments. Apparently, Jules was terrified, and rightly so, when the wind kicked up more than usual and Jules was drifting in the air more than what was planned. It also didn't help matters that the producers took their time bringing her down. Physically, she ended up fine, but her anxiety was obvious because of the expletives were bleeped out and by watching what she was experiencing. Goal Setting and Goal Getting: Go Use This Stuff! Q.

A written goal is not some kind of magic talisman whereby whatever you set your heart on manifests in your life out of thin air. That being the case, what is it that makes the difference between a person who achieves their goals and a person who doesn't? The answer can be summarised in a single word: lifestyle. The only difference between those who achieve their goals and those who don't is the way they live each day. Destiny does not determine your lifestyle. Your lifestyle determines your destiny! Broken Sleep For the past several weeks, I have not been sleeping well. I've been waking up after 4 or 5 hours, tossing and turning for the rest of the night.
