Goals must be Specific This is What, Why, and How of goal you want to achieve. Make sure you use positive words to describe goal and word it in such a way to show that goal has been achieved.

Example: WHAT are you going to do? Use action words such as direct, organize, coordinate, lead, develop, plan, build etc. And words should be in past or present tense suggesting that you have already achieved this goal. This helps you visualise yourself as having achieved goal. Use words like have instead of want or wish. I have lost 20lbs of weight by my next birthday.

WHY is this important to do at this time? What do you want to ultimately accomplish? What does achieving this goal leads to? So that I can live a healthier lifestyle and play for extended periods with my kids.

HOW are you going to do it? (By...)

By exercising for an hour for a minimum of 3 times a week. By drinking 0.5 litres of water every 4 hours to help stave off hunger. By eating a portion of fruit each day instead of an item of sweet. By losing 1lbs per week. By celebrating and rewarding myself each time I achieve my goal with a nice take away or a new cd.

Goals must be Measurable Choose a goal with measurable progress, so you can see change occur. How will you see when you reach your goal? You need to be specific.

Example:

Following on from above goal:

There are 3 measurable goals in that one goal.

1) To lose 20lbs of weight 2) Lose weight by next birthday. 3) To achieve this I will need to exercise for an hour a minimum of 3 times a week.

Goals must be Attainable If you set goals, which are too far out of your reach, you may find that you probably won't commit to achieving those goals. Although you may start out with best intentions, knowledge that it's too much for you means your subconscious will keep reminding you of this fact and will stop you from even giving it your best.

No matter what you do, you don’t seem to be able to move on. The doors to advancement at work seem to close, money remains tight and relationships get to same place and fail.

You might not have noticed it, but day-to-day life, and things you’re going through have become a bit a vicious circle… or a hamster wheel! Round and round you go, same day, same issues over and over. But there is something you should know about hamster wheel.

If wheel makes you feel uncomfortable, or sick – like not wanting to go into work, feeling stressed, depressed or lethargic then you need to get off wheel. And I know you might have tried already and feel fed up with trying, but I have a new idea that won’t take you much effort.

Play with me a moment. I want to suggest to you that you are stuck where you are in life because of one thing.

Think about it. You created everything in your life. You chose your job, therefore determining amount of money you earn which dictates both location and type of home you live in.
