Now that you have created a possibility for your life, stand in that possibility and think about what your life will look like three years from now. Think about what you will have or be doing. Standing in the future as if it has already happened is the best way to create the next three years of your life. 3. Every three months (each quarter), look at your three year goal and create goals for that quarter. When you create your goals every three months, remember to see yourself standing in the future looking back on what you have accomplished over the last three years. Now, you might be asking, "Why do they keep telling me to stand in the future?" The reason why is that fantasy and reality are interpreted the same way by your subconscious. It's why you get scared when watching a horror film. Another example: say you are the President of the USA ten years from now, would anything that you are going through today seem that difficult? This is a key ingredient to your recipe for success. 4. Create a recipe for success workbook, your Unleash Lifelog, to prioritize your actions each week. Failing to write things down is the biggest and most costly mistake that people make. A good memory is a wonderful trait but writing your goals down makes them much more likely to happen because they are now real with a physical form. In fact, it is curious but there are stories of people that have written down their goals, lost their list for years, found it later and realized that most, if not all of their goals had been reached even though they had not seen the list since they wrote it! Essentially, we want you to get that your "word" creates your world. Let's look at a great example. Just a couple of years after the Russians launched Sputnik, President Kennedy summoned the top scientists and asked them how long it would take to land on the moon. He was told that it would be at least 40 to 50 years. After hearing that, in a speech at Baylor University, he said, "By the end of this decade, we will have put a man on the moon!" Kennedy stood in the future and made it happen at least 20 years before even the most optimistic experts said it could be done... even though he would be assassinated six years before it was accomplished. In all likelihood, had Kennedy not given that speech at Baylor University, we would not have landed on the moon until the 1990s because the "word" of the scientists said that it was not possible. Their word would have created our world... not Kennedy's! While at the same time keeping you on track with the basics, this structure is key to the recipe for success because it gives you the ability to create infinite intentions, possibilities and goals. It's that simple!It's that easy! Now, you already have your three year goals set as well as your goals for the next three months. But how to you make sure that you achieve those goals? Just complete your goals in your weekly Unleash Lifelog! Remember the old saying, "You eat an elephant the same way you eat everything else... one bite at a time!" Want to guarantee your success even more? Just revisit both your short-term and long-term goals on a regular basis. Here's how you can revisit your quarterly goals: Reread each of the minimum and targeted intentions that you declared in your Unleash Lifelog and think about each one. If it's done, put a check mark beside it and congratulate yourself. Now, if you haven't yet completed it but you are 1005 positive that you will accomplish it by the end of the quarter, then write "OK" next to it. Now here's a tricky part. If there is a 90%+ chance that you will not finish it or you are just not committed to completing because it doesn't mean anything to you, then do yourself a favor and either revise it so that you can absolutely complete it by the end of the quarter or delete it entirely (or put a big "X" through it.) Many people view this as quitting or cheating but it is really not. It's just being honest with yourself when you acknowledge that you did not fulfill upon your goal! So, why beat yourself up? Save yourself a lot of energy and reduce your aggravation and pain of trying to accomplish the impossible by recreating your goals. Consider this: setting unrealistic goals and failing to achieve them can be detrimental but setting achievable goals and surpassing them can be empowering. Let's look at one example: you set a goal of losing 20 pounds in 60 days but you discover that it is only healthy to lose a pound a week and you lost 5 pounds in thirty days. Would it be healthy to push to lose another 15 pounds in 30 days? Of course not! Recommitting is not failing or cheating... it's just smart! Article Source: http://www.articlewheel.com
