Five Steps to Achieve your Goals

Everybody want to achieve their goals, Am I right? Well, to do that, you need to do the right thing for success. And I have discover 5 steps that will help you to achieve your goals:

1. Setting goals
Be conscious of the choices you are making in your life and the consequences (rewards) that arise. What is your outcome for reading this article? If it is to simply read this article - congratulate yourself, you are on your way to achieving it! Or you may wish to consider the following outcome: Find at least one idea in this article that if you were to adopt it today, it would change your life for the better.

2. Action
How many times have you heard a friend (or even yourself) talk passionately about building/achieving something or taking a special trip and yet, they never fully commit to it and it remains, but a dream. Unless you take action, you would like to achieve next week, next month, next year…

3. Flexible
Some of us actually see the signposts of life and choose not to admit we need to change course, behaviors, etc. For the example, I can choose to notice that I have driven 400 km in the wrong direction and hope that if I persist long enough in this one direction, everything will eventually work out. Or I can become aware of the signpost and decide to explore what other options are available to me.

This reminds me of a true story told to me by a student in one of my classes. He had a friend who, after graduation from college, wanted to be an executive in a financial institution. After graduation, the best job he could find was in the mailroom in a financial institution. This did not deter him at all. Every day, he showed up for work in a suit and tie and carried himself as if he were already an executive - for in his mind, he was an executive, who just happened to be getting a little experience in the mail room. Do you think he was noticed? You bet! Do you think he advanced in the financial institution - YES! A couple of years later, management recognized what he knew all along and officially appointed him an executive in the financial institution.
