Human life is a continuous series of desires and paths to their realization. However, not all people know how to achieve their plans and spend their lives counting lost opportunities and unfulfilled dreams. To avoid such a development of events, you need to learn how to achieve your goals.
Preparation for implementation
There are many ways to achieve the realization of your innermost desires. Special techniques have been invented to increase the likelihood that you will achieve your goal. To a large extent, all of these methods are based on an analytical approach, when the process of achievement is subjected to a thorough analysis. As a result, the global goal is broken down into several fairly simple steps, which are, of course, much easier to cope with individually.
Visualizing a goal helps many people achieve it: a picture or photograph on the refrigerator, a board with notes on the wall, marks in a calendar or diary.
However, you should not start with an analysis, but with the most accurate and correct formulation of what you want to achieve. The more general phrases you use when describing your goal, the less chance of implementation. Try to make the desire as specific as possible, clarify the timing of its achievement, details and nuances. For example, if you are dreaming of a new car, try to mention in the wording the desired date of purchase, price, make, color and characteristics. Of course, at the same time, the dream will lose some of its charm, but at the same time it will become more real and meaningful.
Achieving what you want
After the goal is determined, you can move on to finding a way to achieve it. Here, first you need to look around: to understand what opportunities you have at the current moment, how the current state of affairs affects the prospects for the realization of dreams, what needs to be changed. Defining and preparing the starting conditions is an important step that can have a decisive influence on the result.
But an equally important component is the action plan. You need to compose it so that the implementation of each step can be monitored, that is, you need to set deadlines for intermediate tasks, as well as criteria by which the success of their solution will be assessed.
The direction of psychology designed to help achieve goals (mainly in business) is called coaching, and trainers are coaches.
Having clarified the current circumstances and outlined the shortest path to the cherished dream, you can begin to realize what you want, and as soon as possible, while the enthusiasm is at its best. If your desire is a priority goal, you should plan your time in such a way that the main forces are spent on achieving the dream. Of course, you cannot start other life tasks at the same time, but you need to try to ensure that during periods of maximum productivity you move towards your main goal.
