You’ve set New Year’s resolutions and goals before, only to come up short. As a matter of fact, you’ve decided to quit setting them because you never follow through. You can’t seem to take consistent, long-term action. Why is that?
You, my friend, have left out the one thing that’s more important than setting the goal to begin with. You have left out the “how” or the system to help you get where you want to go.
The one thing that’s more important than setting a goal is to have a system in place to help you attain that goal.
So what, exactly, does it mean to have a system?
A system is simply a process to get you from where you are now to where you want to be.
Here’s a system that will help you follow through and get results:
1) Come up with a goal. Get clear on what you want. I call this your aspiration.
2) Attach actions to your aspiration. This is where most of us fail. There is a big difference between an aspiration and an action. An aspiration is what you want. An action is what you’re going to do to get what you want.
3) Come up with a process. Determine when and how much you’ll do of each of those actions and commit to doing them on a regular basis.
4) Then, forget your goal. Yep, that’s what I said. Once you know your goal, identify actions, and have a process, forget about your goal. If you focus on the process and those daily actions rather than the goal, before you know it, you’ll see changes you never thought possible.
