Vision and Goal Setting

What would happen if you did your grocery shopping without a list?

You’d see all the packaged TV Advertising displays, a potpourri of irresistible goodies and items.

Count Dracula, frankenberries, white tornadoes, Twinkies, star wars t-shirts, and Farrah Fawcett, bionic woman, bad news bears decals and puppets.

You’d be overwhelmed with goals you didn’t set, didn’t need and didn’t really want.

Winning self direction is setting goals that are realistic and profitable to you and your family. They should be specific.

The mind, which operates like a homing torpedo or automatic pilot, it is a robot computer-it gets what you set.

It can’t function properly without specific data. It can’t relate to nebulous, vague or general terms like “happiness,” “wealth,” or “health.”

It does respond to $3000 a month, a new car, a desired weight of 175 for a man or 120 pounds for a woman, and blood pressure of 118/88.

The secret to positive self direction is in establishing a clearly defined goal, writing it down, and then dwelling on it morning and night, with words, pictures and emotions, as if you had already achieved it.

And since your robot self-image cannot tell the difference between something that is rehearsed or synthetically experienced and something that is real, you will move in the direction of your goal, whatever it is, as though it were already a part of your life.

We do become what we think about most. And no wind blows in favor of a ship without a destination.
