PEOPLE SABOTAGE attaining their goals in many ways. The following five
examples are just random possibilities. None of these is more important
than another, although many of you reading them will “feel”
that one is more important... why? Because that one may be the way in
which you sabotage yourself!
First, having a time limit in which to have the goal accomplished. Allow yourself the time necessary to get everything done.
Second, having a goal so large that it can become overwhelming. If your goal is too large, - divide it into smaller, easier to handle pieces.
Third, depending upon others to “do it for you”. Own your goal; take the initiative to get it done.
Fourth, procrastination. Adjust your goal if necessary and crank up your motivation.
Fifth, goals that have components contrary to your beliefs or values. Work with someone who knows the process for setting achievable goals. Working with a “consultant”, you will have guidance to make sure you have all the necessary “components” and have an observer who will check if you are giving unconscious hints that something is not quite right.
Go For Your Goal(d)-tip number 02
“Mobilize Your Resources!”
By John Johnson
USE THE RESORCES you are in control of.
You know what it is you want; you know what it is you feel the desire to achieve.
The next thing to do is ask yourself, “What resources do I have that will assist me in getting it?” If your current resources are insufficient, then ask yourself this: what resources am I in control of that I can use to get the additional ones I need to achieve my goal?” In short, you - already possess the tools you need to make your objective a reality. Use them!
You will be amazed, once you realize, how easy it is to access your resources. One of the issues is this simple: In order to access those resources, it's necessary to be able to "be in a position" to access them. Taking this literally, "being in a position means just that . . . and "the" position is one where you can dissociate from your timeline so that you can access the past, which is where resources "come from." When we are "in time", meaning associated, we may not be able to access the past as easily or as quickly, or we may not even consider that as an option at all, simply because we are "in time", and the idea of "remembering to access the past, is a resource in and of itself. It is, however, both a resource and an option.
So, manipulating your timeline(s) in ways that enable you to access your resources easily and quickly, is important to creating success . . . for yourself first!
