I think organization is absolutely key here. The question becomes… how do you organize your goals in an effort to prioritize what is most important to you?

For this, I’d suggest using a vision board. A vision board is a powerful tool that anyone can use to shape an ideal future through the power of intention and visualization. Learning how to vividly imagine your desired results — attracting your perfect soul mate, radiant health, abundant career opportunities, or building personal and community relationships to give back — is the first step on the path to making them happen.

A vision board – which is a collage of images that represent your goals, dreams, and intentions – allows you to break through unconscious, self-limiting beliefs that have been building in your subconscious mind for years, and really focus only on your important goals. In essence is helps separate your goals (your focus) from the background noise.

Perhaps it’s wise to write down one’s goals in a blog post.
This way you won’t lose the peice of paper they’re written on and all of your readers will be able to see and call you to account if you’re neglecting them.

Here are some simple Goal Strategies I use to create an amazing life:

1) Decide exactly what you want (write it down)
2) Affirm why “you” want it (the bigger the reason the more internal motivation you are giving yourself) (write them on paper)
3) Define the actions you will need to take to achieve it (on paper)
4) Schedule the actions (in your calendar)
5) Do It! (Follow through and carry out your plan)

It helps if you find images or photos that represent your goal and put them in places you’ll see often (bathroom mirror, briefcase, in your car, on your screensaver, on the refrigerator)

If your goal is a long term goal, break it into smaller goals. Schedule at least one thing to do each day (A Goal A Day). Doing one goal each day will add up and you will create enough momentum to carry you through!

Define your top 10 goals for the year
Define your top 10 goals for the month
Define your top 10 goals for the week

One last thing… rewrite your top 10 list weekly, daily if you can.

Live Your Dreams!

I recently began writing down my goals and it’s absolutely phenomenal the changes that are occuring in my life just by simply taking the time to write down some words! Many of my goals have been accomplished already and I’m looking forward to what’s in store for the rest of the year ;) Thanks for the reminder, Darren.

*nods* I had a conversation like this with a friend about his business. He wasn’t sure what he wanted to do with it, but he DID know he wanted to make more money. (The how somewhat elluded him though.) Sadly, his business ended up taking on many guises, (selling art, then selling hats, then not selling anything..) and then went *poof*. *shakes head* If only he could have made one achievable goal and went with it. Sometimes having TOO many goals can be as bad as having none.

very true, scary true. in fact, blogging the goals also gives you impetus to pull the proverbial finger out and get to work on making them happen. :D

good one Toby (might send some people to this comment in a presentation I’m doing on business blogging this week)

Thanks

Darren – reminds me of a recent conversation -

Blogger: My boss doesn’t see the value in our (corporate) blog.
Toby: It was his idea to blog.
Blogger: He wants me to stop. He thinks it’s a waste of time.
Toby: What did you define as success?
Blogger: What do you mean?
Toby: Did you set any goals?
Blogger: No.
Toby: Hard to determine value without a success vision/goal.

Although I haven’t written down my goals in a while, it really does make a HUGE difference. Even if I don’t meet every single goal (which I never do), I find that I made more of an honest effort at that goal than if I didn’t write it down.

There’s something about putting pen to paper when it comes to goals that really solidifies it in one’s mind. Yes, it can appear to be a “nerdish” thing to do, but some of the most successfull people in the world got to where they are because they wrote down their goals and stuck with em’!!!

I agree. Goals are important. It gives you motivation to work harder. It is great to see that you have reached previous goals so that you can focus on getting those new goals.

I have just two goals: Get more traffic and get more links without compromising the quality of my writing. I have leanrt one thing that with each passing day, I am getting more skilled as a blogger.

So true! This is why we do family goals every month together. We’re starting our kids early learning how to set, follow-up and achieve goals. When I was teaching, I also used to make my junior high students write goals each quarter. It’s amazing how the brain subconsciously begins trying to make things happen once you write them down!

Aren’t we all struggling with this? The dreaded and sometimes revered “to-do” list.

I am very hit or miss with my to-do lists, and it usually just happens when there are a lot of items that need to be done immediately. I like the idea of setting up a more long-term list and following up with action lists each day or each week, as Eric suggested above.

Now let’s see if I do it. Maybe my first list should start with “#1 Make a to-do list”.
