The list is endless.

2. Set goals with specific conditions.

Make your goals possible to accomplish. Plan your goals and structure your thoughts around positive actions. If you think your goal is impossible - it will be. Yet, if you think in positive terms, your goals will be easier to achieve. Refuse to let doubt sway you from your target. Stay positive and you’ll get to your goal much faster. 3. Think big, yet be realistic.

Every accomplishment starts with a dream. Make your dream biggest and best - then work to make it come true. Write down everything you know about your dream and your desire to have it happen. What do you have to do? How soon can you make it happen? Be patient, nothing happens overnight.

4. Make a plan.

Write your dream, idea and your plan of action in present tense: “I am successful.” “I have a successful business.” “My faith is strong and I am blessed financially.” “I am going to reach my goal.” This helps your mind to visualize outcome. Your mind is forced to act as if your dream has already materialized. Your mind works in present and makes no distinction between what is happening now and what has already happened. Confusion comes when you send your thoughts to future or back to past. The mind may shut down and stop working you what you desire.

5. Set values on your goals.

What value do you place on your life? On your career? On your business? What excites you? Let your imagination soar. Would you give up your values for someone else’s if it meant losing your character or your faith? Your goals must be valuable to you before they can be fulfilled. When you focus on your dream, give it time to grow and develop. It soon becomes a reality.

6. Reward your progress.

When you achieve even smallest step in accomplishing your goals, get excited. Compliment yourself for taking a step toward reaching your goal. There isn’t anything more gratifying then accomplishing your goal. When you make a major accomplishment, do something for someone else. Celebrate it!

With unlimited opportunities to reach your dreams and goals; with unlimited access to knowledge, information, instructors, and places to go for help, there’s no telling what you can accomplish - if you desire! Then...

Always remember to thank source from which it all comes.

Achievable: Your goal must be attainable. If you have not learned what you need to know in order to attain your goal, then you must either learn it and then apply or find someone to assist you that already knows what you don't. Think about past achievements or failures in your life and apply some of lessons that you learned.

Realistic: Being realistic is a bit tricky. What may be realistic for you may not be realistic for others. You can see this truth throughout your life. Keep your goal within boundaries that you set and upgrade how realistic it is as you get closer or achieve more.

Timely: Keep a specific time of day for working towards your goal. In addition to that, keep a timeline of when you intend on completing each portion of your goal. Keep track of each item completed and when. Tracking is an essential element in achievement.

The twist in taking Effective Action is in asking of specific questions. The questions are not asked of others but they rather are asked of you!

For example, if you wanted to lose weight and didn't have a lot time to exercise; your question would be:

Q - What is most time efficient or effective way for me to lose weight through exercise?

A - The most time efficient way would be through interval training or sprint training type of activites that involve little time and maximum effort, which result in maximum fat loss.

Thanks to information age and your own subconcious mind, answers are available but you just have to ask them.

Effective Action involves a little planning, thought, and question asking but, results will be available as proof that this method is better than just taking plain "Action."

So in end it is "Effective Action" that gets results you want and they are not always immediate.
