Hai good people!
Back again with me
Happy Reading!
“There is no road too long to the man who advances
deliberately and without undue haste; there are no honors too distant to the
man who prepares himself for them with patience.”
You have incredible mental powers that you habitually
fail to use to their full extent. By systematically setting goals for your life
and making detailed plans to achieve them, you will save yourself years of hard
work in reaching the same level of success. Goal setting enables you to use vastly
more of your thinking powers than the average person.
As you set your goals and begin moving toward them, it
is essential that you establish a series of benchmarks or measures that you can
use to evaluate your progress, day-by-day and hour-by-hour. The more clear and
specific the measures you set, the more accurate you will be in hitting your
targets on schedule.
There are three keys to peak performance in achieving
your goals. They are commitment, completion and closure. When you make a firm
commitment to achieve a particular goal, and you put aside all excuses, it is
very much like stepping on the accelerator of your subconscious mind.
Completion is the second ingredient in peak performance. There is an enormous
difference between doing 95% of a task and doing 100% of a task. In fact, it is
very common for people to work very hard up to the 90% or 95% level and then to
slack off and delay the final completion of the task.
A goal or a decision without a deadline is merely a
discussion. It has no energy behind it. It is like a bullet with no powder in
the cartridge. Unless you establish deadlines to which you are committed, you
will end up “firing blanks” in life and work.
Measure Your Progress:
1.
Determine a single
measure that you can use to grade your progress and success in each area of
life. Refer to it daily.
2.
Determine the most
important part of your job as it affects your income, and measure your daily
activities in that area.
3.
Set a minimum,
specific amount for daily, weekly, monthly saving and investment, and
discipline yourself to put away those amounts.
4.
Break every large
goal down into measurable, controllable parts, and then focus on accomplishing
each part on a fixed deadline.
5.
Make it a game
with yourself to set benchmarks, measures, scorecards, targets and deadlines
for every goal, and then focus on those numbers and dates. The goals will take
care of themselves.
6.
Resolve to
accomplish at least one specific part of a larger goal each day, and never miss
a day.
