My all-time favorite quote that I live by is “anything after
the words I am is true to the unconscious mind (Quoted
Lisa Nicholas)”
Be mindful of who you share your dreams with. Welcome
the great life lessons patience will teach you. Shut the door
to negative chatter, not everyone is going to see your vision
the way you do. Understand whatever you say and think will
happen. Goal setting is a very healthy and motivating thing
to do, and knowing what part of the goal setting strategy is
difficult, and what you can do for improvement will only set
you forward on your new journey.
“We may encounter many defeats but we must not be
defeated (Quote Maya Angelou)”
Closing the door to negative self-chatter is vitally
important. This will give you an opportunity to open the
door to positive affirmations and good thoughts about
yourself and the goals you set.
There are a million and one different ways to mix coffee.
There are a million plus ways to write down goals.
Creative people will go about the goal setting process
differently than a logical person. The key is to understand
who you are and what part of the goal setting process is
the most difficult. Anybody can download a template for
writing down goals. It’s not the way we are writing down
our goals, but it’s the process of how we go about setting
goals in general that complicates things.
