Article: A-Seven-Point-Strategy-For-Your-Life
Everyone, or almost everyone has the potential to live a life far removed from where they are today.
While life offers no guarantees the judicious application of the following principles can get you started on the road to becoming everything that nature intended you to be.
The important thing is to make a start!
So start NOW!
1. DREAM
Build your "focus factor". Decide exactly what it is you really want, then, visualize it in your mind's eye. Create a "word picture" that describes what you right track you'll get run over if you just stand there." You can have a beautiful dream, you can understand every obstacle, you can be tough, determined and resilient, but, until you create a proactive solution, a definite action plan complete with target dates, commit to following the plan and take the necessary steps - and continue the steps as long as necessary, your dream will remain an empty void.
5. ONE BITE AT A TIME
Focus night and day on the current step. Think about tomorrow tomorrow. Is what you're doing right now making the best possible use of your time? Is it making a contribution towards the realization of your dream? You have only now, this day, this hour, this moment.
6. MEASURE IT
Chart your progress, if you can't tell that you're moving forward, you're not! Glance occasionally in your rear view mirror. When you see where you've come from, it's easier to focus on where you're headed.
7. FEEL IT
Feel in your bones what it will be like to live your dream. Feel the emotion, the wonder, the exhilaration, the joy, the pride, the wonderful sense of self. When you get there it won't be a surprise, you'll realize you've actually been living your dream for a long time.
