To achieve, you must first believe.. and be consistent, persistent and focused!

Wake up early. Pray for discernment. Drink tea. Set Priorities. Work hard. Keep your priorities straight, your mind right and your head up. Be patient, positive, productive and prosperous. Do your best. Eliminate distractions. Be less impulsive. Live well. Dress well. Choose wisely. Figure out what you love doing, and start doing it. Take responsibility for your choices and your life. Handle your business. Tell the truth. Surround yourself with like-minded and like-valued good people. Be kind. Be loving and lovable. Be authentic. Speak life. Be grateful. Be a testimony. Have fun. It's time to start living!

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream another dream. ~C.S. Lewis 

A friend of mine was helping me get clear on some financial goals in exchange for my providing him development coaching. He was getting frustrated with me because I was inconsistent in executing the financial plan that we agreed upon. He said to me, “I don’t understand you! How did you get to be successful thus far with having little discipline.”  

This question stopped me! After I got over my initial ‘the nerve of him’ reaction, I pondered. Good question! I asked myself, how did I accomplish so many goals with my inconsistent - resistant - say I want one thing and do another behavior? 

Here’s my answer: I set goals. I write my goals down. I keep at it. When I get sidetracked, I eventually get back on track. Rinse and repeat until I accomplish stated goal. Yea sure it takes a little longer, ok a lot longer, but I stick to it. It took me many years to end a going no-where dead end relationship. It took me 7 years to buy my first home. It took me 6 years to complete my M.A. degree. It took me 5 years to start writing/blogging (this is my 2nd post) and guess what? So what! Progress is progress. 

You’d be happy to know that I’m back on track with my financial goals. And overall it takes me a lot less time to accomplish my goals. Why? (1) I’m clear about what I want (2) I believe it’s possible (3) I’m committed (4) I eliminate distractions and (5) I embrace fear. For these reasons, I focus and spend less time in distraction-land.

Please share with me one of your goals. What’s your timeframe? What’s your plan to accomplish stated goal within the timeframe? Do share.  I’m all ears.
