1. Set your goals
You will get nowhere if you cannot decide on a direction. Clear intention is essential.

2. Plan to achieve
Having an intention is the first step but organizing them and putting them to good use is even more crucial. Spend some time by yourself in a quiet room churning out your goal list. This is your compass, guiding to success. Ask yourself what you really want to achieve and what is really important to you.

Are your expectations realistic? Are you prepared to sacrifice and pay the necessary price to achieve these goals? Be really honest with yourself. You got to put in more time to plan your future. And remember, you must be very serious about your goals because they will not just happen by themselves. So don't put down frivolous thoughts as your goals. Make sure the things you put down are those that you want to achieve in life.

3. Seeing is believing
Write our goals down on a card and put them in your wallet and in your room where you will see them all the time. Brian Tracy said: "Goals in writing are dreams with deadlines." Be imaginative and make a list that will motivate you to strive. There is no limit.

4. Categorize your goals
Set your goals with your spouse or significant other, goals may revolve around finances, career, spirit, health, family and personal development. Identify what is important to you and the both of your futures! But think realistically. Don't let your goals overwhelm you.

5. Be flexible
Fret not if you see the need to change your plan or modify your short term or mid term goals. You make your own rules. Re-assess your goals regularly: daily, weekly or monthly. the most important thing is to never lose your FOCUS on what you want to achieve in life.

6. A step at a time
Have a long term focus but short term objectives. It is the small steps that keep us going and sometimes, those little successes save us from becoming frustrated by occasional short term setbacks. Ultimately what matters is that you take steps forward. This will mean that regardless of whether you are making big or small advancements towards your goal, you are still making advancement and this means that you will eventually reach where you want in the end. Also, it is very important to have the courage to face obstacles that appear along your path for you to succeed.

7. Trick of treat
Achieving these goals should be a treat, not a chore. You must be fully committed to achieving what you want. Believe in yourself and take a positive step forward every day.

8. ULTIMATELY
The only thing that stops a goal from realization is you. Your thoughts are the most potent things on earth. If they are positive, they will attract the people, circumstances, ideas and opportunity that you need.

If you can create the right mental environment, you will create the right physical environment in which you cannot fail.

If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you, if you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us.
