You Can Make it Happen (eBook)

How many incomplete goals do you currently have on your agenda? If youre anything like the vast majority of us, chances are that you have hundreds of projects that you started and never completed, countless goals that you told your friends but never saw through and all kinds of dreams that seem to be getting less and less likely to come to fruition. And it is for this reason that you may find people roll their eyes when you tell them your next big project. When you start a new training programme to lose weight, and everyone including you knows that youre likely to have lost interest by month two. Or when you talk about the application you intend to make, the website, or the business project. Or when you talk about that dream trip to another country. This is the way of things for many of us. We work incredibly hard at things we dont feel passionate about just to put food on the table but when it comes to fulfilling our dreams, we are remarkably ineffective. Its time to change all that and start making those goals happen. But how can you turn it all around? Accomplishing goals is about strategy; it is about making a cognitive shift to change the way youre thinking and its about being smart about how you approach each goal. It is also about knowing how to choose your goals and even how to phrase them. This book is going to show you how to make those changes. Youll learn how to choose and write goals effectively, how to write effective action plans and how to make sure you stick with your goals and never give up. This book is a little different from most goal-setting books. After we have given you the broad tools you need to start setting and accomplishing your goals, we are going to take a look at how you can begin to put them into practice. While a goal can be anything, for many of us they are going to fall into one of a few different categories. Most of us have goals for our relationships, goals for our fitness, goals for our careers and goals for travel. Were going to provide not only the abstract strategies you need to start making effective goals, but also the step-to-step processes that will let you apply these strategies in each of these areas. By the end of this book, youll be proficient at setting and accomplishing any goal. And at the same time, youll have powerful strategies for improving your relationships, your fitness, your career and more.
