00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.580
You're listening to the Achievement Radio podcast
00:00:02.580 --> 00:00:04.879
where you can unlock your full potential for
00:00:04.879 --> 00:00:31.789
success. Goals are normally set along different
00:00:31.789 --> 00:00:34.189
levels. We have just one life that God has given
00:00:34.189 --> 00:00:37.130
us. You cannot become a doctor, lecturer, CEO
00:00:37.130 --> 00:00:39.590
of a company, engineer, finance expert, lawyer,
00:00:39.869 --> 00:00:43.369
etc., all in one life. Hence, seek opinions and
00:00:43.369 --> 00:00:45.969
analyze your strengths and weaknesses. Put down
00:00:45.969 --> 00:00:48.590
in writing your large -scale goals. These goals
00:00:48.590 --> 00:00:51.130
must be further broken into smaller goals, then
00:00:51.130 --> 00:00:54.789
work toward each step by step. Prioritize your
00:00:54.789 --> 00:00:58.109
activities. For some people, family is more important
00:00:58.109 --> 00:01:01.200
than work. or vice versa. This depends on a lot
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.180
of factors like values, attitudes, principles,
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:08.000
upbringing, culture, and more. Hence, once your
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:10.060
main goals are down, rank them in accordance
00:01:10.060 --> 00:01:12.959
to their importance. This helps in apportioning
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:15.019
the appropriate time to each of the activities.
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:18.260
Goal setting is certainly more than just scribbling
00:01:18.260 --> 00:01:20.900
on a piece of paper. It has a definite binding
00:01:20.900 --> 00:01:23.959
purpose. It's the roadmap to achieve your dreams.
00:01:24.299 --> 00:01:27.049
It has to be followed strictly. A lot of goals
00:01:27.049 --> 00:01:29.870
look nice and idealistic. However, unless the
00:01:29.870 --> 00:01:31.829
goal is something you really want with all your
00:01:31.829 --> 00:01:34.750
heart, you won't work toward it. Goals must be
00:01:34.750 --> 00:01:37.790
consistent with values, principles, and aptitudes.
00:01:38.269 --> 00:01:41.129
They shouldn't contradict each other. For example,
00:01:41.530 --> 00:01:44.370
with an annual income of $50 ,000, you can't
00:01:44.370 --> 00:01:48.629
want to buy a house that costs $900 ,000. Goals
00:01:48.629 --> 00:01:51.579
must be set in various areas. Family, career,
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:54.739
health, social, educational, financial. This
00:01:54.739 --> 00:01:57.159
way, there's a balance that's maintained in all
00:01:57.159 --> 00:01:59.599
areas and leads to a wholesome development as
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:02.799
an individual. However, importance given to each
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:06.359
area may vary. Believe in the power of positivity.
00:02:06.659 --> 00:02:09.780
Writing down goals leads our subconscious mind
00:02:09.780 --> 00:02:12.800
to follow those instructions. The more positive
00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:15.460
the instructions, the more positive the results.
00:02:16.180 --> 00:02:18.419
When you aim at the moon, you'll shoot at the
00:02:18.419 --> 00:02:22.610
stars. If you miss the moon, don't aim at a tree,
00:02:23.069 --> 00:02:25.389
you'll shoot at the ground. Ensure that your
00:02:25.389 --> 00:02:29.370
goals are set high. They should be challenging,
00:02:29.889 --> 00:02:33.110
yet achievable. Concentrating on adding value
00:02:33.110 --> 00:02:36.169
to yourself every day. We should live every day
00:02:36.169 --> 00:02:39.949
and not just exist. Fill yourself with positive
00:02:39.949 --> 00:02:43.509
thoughts, always. Write your goals down and put
00:02:43.509 --> 00:02:45.770
that list up in a prominent place on the wall.
00:02:45.889 --> 00:02:48.460
Read it every day. Put it on your cell phone
00:02:48.460 --> 00:02:51.340
as notes. Also make a copy of the goals on a
00:02:51.340 --> 00:02:54.400
Word document on your desktop or laptop. Review
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:57.180
your goals on a daily and weekly basis. Make
00:02:57.180 --> 00:03:00.560
it part of your routine. Visualize yourself having
00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:03.840
achieved those goals. See in your mind's eye
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:07.639
the benefits and fruits of your goals. Your subconscious
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.620
mind will automatically drive you to get there.
00:03:10.780 --> 00:03:14.240
resist temptation ask yourself will this action
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:16.960
