Creating Real Magic with Your Goals
How to create more abundance in your life…
I remember when I created such a large list of goals thinking that if I just wrote them down they would all come true. The crazy part is that by writing them down many of them will show up and materialize in your life. Even if you write down 10 things you would like to have, be or do in the next 12 months, it is quite astonishing how the universe conspires to make it happen for you. More than that though, it is important to find one of those goals that is your utmost burning desire. One that really keeps you awake at night. Something beyond yourself that gets you quite excited. Something that might even seem impossible at the time, yet achievable. When you have one major goal that you are focusing on it will also drive you to achieve your other secondary goals. Here is the thing to ask yourself. What kind of person do you have to become in order to achieve that goal? You can start by making a list of that. Even just start by making a list of a few things that you could do to propel yourself forward. Then make that list of everything and every action you need to take to complete that goal. Keep writing until you have exhausted every thought and possibility of how you can get it done. While you are brainstorming ideas, keep writing any idea without any judgment of whether it would work or not. Just write down every idea or action that you think of. Don’t even give yourself time to overthink it. Just keep writing your list until you just can’t think of anything else. After you are done, put the list in your pocket and take it wherever you go. Of course if you have it on your phone you can refer to it often. This gets everything started for you.
When I first learned the power of goal setting, I was told to really tap into my burning desire so as to unleash my creativity of higher thinking. To tap into the universe of ideas. Back then I never used to fully understand that but of course get it now. Really focusing on your Major Goal releases the energy and focus towards that goal. It penetrates your mind and soul deep into your subconscious to find ways for you to reach your goal. The best example of familiarity is like when you buy a new car. Once you buy the car, you start noticing other cars that are just like yours. The cars were there all along, it's just that now your focus is on that car because you own one now. The more you can take the goal you have and describe it, write it out, talk to people about it, even better yet have an exact picture of it. Our mind works in pictures. Once we have our mind locked into our goal with words and pictures our subconscious starts to show us results of our goal. Its like a search you are doing on google except with your mind. A google mind search.
Even if you take your goal and a photo of it and look at it everyday and think about it for a few minutes, you would be astonished at what starts to show up for you. The key is you just have to be consistent and you have to work at it. It takes labor. Hard mental labor. The goal becomes you. You can’t stop thinking about it and eventually you reach your goal. This is how Athletes train their minds too. They know for above average results they have to reach their thinking way up above all the clutter and keep a clear focus on their goal.
So what is the one thing you constantly talk about? The one goal you are always telling your friends or spouse about? The one goal that keeps you awake at night? What if you started to create it and make it real by just putting a little action behind it? And what is the best time now to get started? Clear your desk and start your list. Clear your kitchen counter and get out that recipe you have always wanted to make. Take the corner of your spare room and put a desk in there for your own private space just for you and your goal. Get right into the middle of it. Surround yourself with it. Be your goal. Put photos all over your walls and mirrors to remind you when you get up to go to work. Put one in your wallet and in your car. The screensaver on your phone. Put it everywhere you go. Everyday. Just take that one goaland make it your project. Your other goals or tasks you have in your life will get done too as you move along. For now though just focus on this one goal.
Once you do this a few times. Take a goal you had, achieve it and make it real, it gets easier and easier to create more abundance in your life. The subconscious mind sees the results you are getting and reacts accordingly on your next goal.
What if you did? What if you started today? It could change everything!
It spills over to all areas of your life. The quality of one major goal causes you to refine other areas of your life and create even more and more. But you gotta work it. You just have to take the time to define it. What it is you really really want. The more you crystalize it the closer you get to building and achieving it.
This is how great ideas become real in life. It might have started by someone just scribbling down on a notepad of a goal they had. The next day, they think of something else that adds to it. The next month they have an outline of the full plan but when they look back the last 30 days they can see that the original list they made is already half completed. They add more ideas and actions behind it and build momentum with so much excitement that they work late into the night. Before they know it, the masterpiece is complete and it all started with an idea scribbled on a notepad. Start your scribbling today. Start taking collecting photos of your next goal or project and surround yourself with it. Even schedule your own thinking time onto your calendar to build on it. Make it part of your regular day and let it become your own private obsession. Then it's only a matter of time where all the pieces fit and it all comes together.
