5. Gain knowledge. Find out what other people did to achieve same goal. It is highly unlikely that you are first. There will be many different routes, and knowledge is there.

6. Work out a plan. Look at where you are now, look at where you want to be, and work backwards, step by step, until you can see what first step is, that you need to take to get to your goal.

7. Take first step. This is often hardest of all steps, but can be most powerful, unleashing amazing energies, both within you, and around you.

8. Keep going. Once initial enthusiasm wears off, once going gets tough, keep going! No-one said it was easy! This is where you find out if you are really prepared to pay price or not.

That’s it! Simple. Eh? No, of course not, but theory *is* simple, yes.

All steps need to be followed, you can’t miss any of them, but if you follow them, believe me, world is your oyster!

Ah yes, relaxation, second of our all-important ‘R’s. Relaxation is not just for sissies, it’s not just for wasters, it’s essential for body.

The body cannot keep going non-stop forever. It will conk out eventually, a bit like my car.

You need to get enough sleep, and you need to have time for your self, to do nothing, and just ‘be’.

This can be as little as a five minute meditation using relaxation techniques.

In our ever-more hectic lives, recreation and relaxation seem like bonuses, luxuries we can have ‘later’.

Wrong! They are not luxuries, they are essential for your productivity and well being, and just as you schedule your tasks to get them done efficiently, you also must, I repeat *must* schedule recreation and relaxation.
