If You're Not Ready - Don't StartWritten by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee
Continued from page 1
Being ready is a state of mind. You have to be ready right down to fibers of your bones or it won't work. When you are ready, your commitment level will be 100%. If you are not ready, your commitment level will be much less, and whatever actions you take will not be sufficient to create what you want. Give yourself a break. If you are not ready, don't beat yourself up over it. Take a few steps back and ask yourself, "What am I ready to do?". Taking small steps can often help us get up courage to take big leap. There are times when any action is better than none at all. Start from where you are and keep focused and moving forward. Getting ready is a process; so don't rush it. There are occasions when it takes time to work up to point where you can take leap.

| | Why Traditional Goal Setting Doesn't WorkWritten by Arina Nikitina
Continued from page 1
Due to all these reasons you need a very strong motivator. Something that will pull, push or drag you forward. There is only one thing powerful enough to do that and it's a VISION. You'll still have to write all of your goals down. Then take that piece of paper and envision yourself after achieving all these goals. In order to succeed you have to become a person capable of succeeding, you have to start thinking like that person, act like that person. Make yourself truly believe that you are looking into your future through crystal ball. Remember every little detail - expression on your friends faces, proud look in you parents eyes. Feel warm breeze on your face, smell salty air of ocean, imagine your new house on beach. You need to create a vision so powerful, so desirable, so compelling that it draws all your energy and motivation to it. It has to become an obsession. You have to feel something that a person finding an oasis in middle of desert would feel. Absolute excitement and complete determination. Then any goal becomes possible.
