Identify & Obliterate Six Barriers to Your Success!

It’s the beginning of yet another year, and as many of us sit with pencil in hand we might be thinking…”Should I even bother to set new goals again this year…and if so… will it even make a difference?
 
At the beginning of every year we all start out at zero….and it seems daunting to look at next December and wonder how we are going to “get there”!  Will we beat this year’s numbers? Will this be the first year that you will really focus on success and
profitability?

 It’s all about what you do and how you do it…. but this time…differently! 
We would all like for those goals to become a true reality!
Like every physical act, we start with a thought process; which leads to a
vision or a picture of what we want. The professionals that plan and implement
their plan enjoy a different level of satisfaction and enjoy higher levels of
success than those of us who fail to plan and hope for the best.

 But visions are tough to come by if you don’t have a passion or purpose for your
work.  No matter what your goal, if you have a vision, focus and a plan to get there,
you still need the “fire in the belly” to deliver the end results.
So what you really need is a compelling purpose that won’t let you go astray.

  The question is, “What is your “magnetic compelling purpose?”
Do you have a dream that is so all-consuming that you wouldn’t give up until you made
it happen?  Perfect! That’s the kind of resolve that gets results. 
 
 So back to those New Year’s Resolutions…

 It is easy to get excited about resolutions in the early days of January, but to
make it all work, you’ll need to decide if you are excited enough to get serious
about the process and ultimately follow through to completion.

  It’s a fact that goals and resolutions barely have a chance to grow until we get them
in writing, and when we convert those thoughts to document, we are on the right path
to make them real and viable!

 You’ll need to SEE them, SHOW them to others, or DISPLAY them on your refrigerator as a reminder.  When our resolutions are not written down they are much like the wind; here for the moment…then gone forever!

 Here are six challenges that keep our resolutions from becoming a reality. 
You might want to be aware of them to you can make 2010 your best year ever.

1. Lack of Clarity: The more detail you attach to a goal or resolution, the more
likely you are to follow through on it. Describe it with whys (for the purpose of ..),
whens (completion dates and interim progress dates), whats (including mention of
your current reality, and what the end game will look like upon completion),
and any other details that will help you vividly see the vision. 
Don’t worry! You can’t overdo the detail! Lack of detail equals lack of clarity.

2. Lack of Commitment: When you are serious enough to write resolutions down and
share them with others, it is your way of making a commitment to the process. 
We simultaneously put the universe on notice that this is our intent. 
Goethe said “The moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.” 
Your discipline to follow through demonstrates your continued commitment.

3. Lack of Belief: Human behavior is the result of the human belief system. 
If you believe your resolution is doable, believe you have a strategy to make it
happen, and believe in yourself, you can’t miss.  If you are filled with doubt
you will fail to go to the next step.  This is no time to be timid.  BE BOLD! 
Share your resolutions with others! This helps reinforce your belief that you can do it.

4. Lack of Passion: Vision without action is hallucination!  Fire in the belly
propels you toward action and results.  Step number one is having the courage to get
started on your clarified resolutions. Get fired up! Get started! And Go for it! 
Seeing even a small amount of progress is all it takes to inspire you to take the
next step.

5.  Lack of Congruence: Your resolutions need to be in sync not only with your
belief system, but also with your other goals, and your capabilities.   If it is
too outlandish or unrealistic, the incongruence of it will short-circuit your
belief in your ability to get it done.  It will be a non-starter.  Make it as
significant as you can and still believe you can do it.

6. Lack of focus … Writing down clarified resolutions is the first step of an
exciting process, if we can keep our focus.  Can you vow to stay focused on the
vision?  Schedule specific follow through actions for specific times to help keep
you connected.  The difference between high performers and mediocre producers is
a focused intensity accompanied by the determination that you will not be denied!
Few people realize the power and potential which are derived from crafting one’s
“Magnetic Compelling Purpose”.  During times of challenge like these, people tend
to gravitate either toward scarcity or abundance.  The majority who go toward
scarcity are focused on problems and the negative aspects of their existence. 
Those who go toward abundance are more focused on possibilities and progress, and
that prosperity consciousness is what inspires many people to take the actions
that propel them into the next realm of their life.  It doesn’t matter where you
went to school, or how old you are.  Freedom to excel in America is your individual
birthright.

If you can articulate what your “Magnetic Compelling Purpose” is, put it in writing,
and fine-tune it, you are on your way.  Serious resolutions and statements of purpose
tend to cause one to behave the way the person they hope to become behaves.
Be courageous and take action today on your written plan for success in 2010 and beyond!  

Then heed the words of my literary mentor, Orison Swett Marden, who said…
“Make every day a great day of achievement, because you never know when God might
be watching, sizing you up for bigger things.”

Yawn….Seems like everybody has something to say about starting a new decade…a new year. There are plenty of prolific writings about the excitement of starting anew….

It IS all about new beginnings – but it really comes down to the same thing; If you want change, you must want it bad enough that the pain NOT to change is more painful than making the change itself.

The question to ponder is ….

Am I becoming the person I wanted to be, living the kind of life I had dreamed?  With so many people in this country on anti-depressants, my guess is that the “unhappiness” we feel is not from having too much or too little of anything, but rather a disconnect in not having what we had dreamed about having, being and doing.

If we really can change and do believe we really can, then why is it so many of us fail at these fervent but weak resolutions? 

What separates the winners from the losers are the ACTION-able steps to change the direction of your life and the belief that you can change the outcome, and it begins with the power of compounding positive or negative steps to our goals.

Health: We all know we need to be more proactive about our health – that said, if you are younger in age, you don’t feel the same pressure to focus on a healthier lifestyle as those of us who are farther down the runway of life. Losing a couple of pounds a month can a good goal, but facing 20-30 pounds at one time may seem unattainable.  If you want to be healthier you’ve got to start MOVING.   Walking is a cheap and simple way to get in better shape. Bottom line: start a new walking program with a friend or bunch of friends. Too cold? Find a mall – Too warm? Find a mall

Finances:  Saving money? – Now there’s a challenge! Spend an extra dollar a week and you are out $50+…Save a dollar, well, you get the picture.  How much time have you invested in actually seeing where your money goes every day? You might be seriously surprised to find many ways you can re-direct your spending and ultimately your income.  Look at the many entrepreneurial business opportunities available with little start up needed in both money and time to build your income.

Self Improvement: So you want to be better read? Get a library card and schedule a couple of hours a week reading away from home so you meet your goal. Perhaps you want to improve your language skills.  Check out low cost or free programs in the local schools and universities and begin the path to becoming and doing what you visualized for your life

Social: Want more friends? Make some new ones. Learn how to be a better friend to others and you’ll become a better attracter of the kind of friends you’d like to have

Get a Coach: Can’t stay focused? Getting a coach can improve the odds of your getting where you want to go.  Coach Anne Bachrach has no problem kicking your butt into action to keep you on target to get what you said you wanted. (http://www.accountabilitycoach.com/) 

Excuses: We all are faced with crazy schedules, interruptions, no money, no time, no energy, etc. But as our good friend Giovanni Livera, speaker, trainer and master magician says “No Change? No Change!” (http://www.giovanniexperiences.com/)  You can’t expect a change if there is no change in your behavior! There really are no excuses, but rather that we get lost due to our lack of focus, our lack of planning and the discipline needed to delay immediate gratification. 

What if….you could really change your lifestyle, cash flow, energy level, improve your health, be a better husband, wife, son, daughter, or friend?   We live in a land of unlimited opportunity! So dream a little dream and then let nothing get in the way of your having your best life now.
