Guest guest Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 \ What it Takes to Achieve Your Goals by Jane “Setting meaningful goals takes courage.†Setting a goal can be a huge challenge. Setting goals can even be intimidating, no less following through with one. When you set goals you are taking responsibility for the outcome. What’s easy about that? Instead of being fearful or intimidated, praise yourself for your willingness to accept the risk. Growth requires you to venture outside your comfort zone. Be willing to take on the unknown and be courageous when you face it. Set a goal today that challenges your usual way of thinking. As you exercise your courage through goal setting, prosperity will naturally follow. Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want. Margaret Young Live in gratitude Fear of loss is what creates loss. Love of possibilities is what drives the fulfillment of those possibilities. What good is it to have something if you constantly live in fear of losing it? In some ways, that’s worse than not having it at all. Instead of living in fear, live in gratitude. Fill your heart with love and thankfulness for all that you now have, so that there is no space left for fear. Fill your mind with thoughts of the very best of what is possible for your world. Fill your spirit with a bright, sparkling vision of how good you know life can be. Sure, the superficial things will come and go, so don’t let those things define you. Instead, treasure the values that transcend every moment and every circumstance. The genuine person inside is much more powerful than your ego that always feels so threatened. Live in gratitude and let the real, authentic, courageous person you are, always come shining through.
