If you do commityourself to achieving that goal you are half way there.Read my '7 Secret Steps To Success' article once you havefinished this one. http://007workfromhome.com/harnessing-your-power.php Step 2 - You must have a plan because without one you are treadingwater. How many people do you know have goals? Probably not many, I know because I asked a lot of thepeople around me what their goals were and most of themjust went "...aahhh....dunno". That's the kind of aimlessness that will see you doing thesame unrewarding job for the next 15 years. Step 3 - If you know someone who has a habit of discouraging you,don't tell them what you are doing or what your goals are.Wait until you're having some success and then tell them. Anything they have to say then will either no longer applyor will be seen for what it is:-- An attempt to stop you from rising above the position inlife they would prefer to see you occupy! -- Step 4 - If you know people of similar mind then that is fantastic,spend time with them, soak up their positivity. If not, don't worry because you do not necessarily need toform a personal relationship. Encouragement from the greatminds and achievers of our time can be found in books,tapes and CD's. Jim Rohn is very good, others are Anthony Robbins andNapoleon Hill. Persistence is a necessary ingredient in any achievement.Obviously it must be, because if you didn't persist youwould never finish anything. The degree of your persistence is actually proportional tothe size of the achievement. It has been a defining characteristic of some of thegreatest men and women to ever walk our planet. Persist!

About That Dream... About that Dream... Self Determination - Making the Most Out of You Breaking the mold of being a child is difficult. The mere addition of years does not make that happen. The dependency many adults choose, in fact, keeps them in a child-like mentality.
