To succeed, many experts emphasize the importance to set a clear goal. You make your goal clear so that you can focus. As the result, you achieve more.
An organized, productive person is skilled to set a goal. She prepares a shopping list before she goes shopping. Once she is in the store, instead of strolling freely, she goes to get what she needs. The list makes her focus (the items she needs) clear and she can get them without so much destruction.
You go to school or take a class to achieve something. You may feel much more productive at work than in your private life. Why? Because the final goals at a school and work are clear: get the specific education or make money. Your goals are the certificate and diploma. Then the step-by-step goals are clear, too. They are an assignment and good mark at a test. They are delivery, data input, e-mail, report, contract and sales. Whichever goal it is, you work for it in each stage.
The law of attraction applies this focusing technique. You imagine your dream life so vividly that you can feel it. Then, it really happens! The focus on the positive image can bring the positive result.
Okay, setting a goal and focusing it is such a powerful thing.
Then, let me ask you a fundamental question – what is your goal of the life?
The answer may be materialistic – to have a nice job, car, house or go on a round-the-world trip. No worry of money. Or it may be emotional – to be happy, make family and friends happy, feel fulfilled, etc.
But, although you may come up with some ideas, I suspect many are not entirely sure what the final goals of the life are. The goal of life is something you are born for. It’s not a temporary wish but you seek through your life so that you can feel satisfied when you die. In other words, you will regret when you die if you miss the opportunity to seek it.
Researches say people regret these things before they die:
- I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
- I wish I hadn’t worked so hard.
- I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
- I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
- I wish that I had let myself be happier.
- I wish I had let my children grow up to be who they wanted to be.
People regret if they don’t live honest to themselves. I believe love comes from us naturally. If you are sincerely honest to you, you want love, and in return you want to love. Therefore, love comes with the life truly being yourself.
The goal of your life is not to regret. Not to regret being untrue to yourself.
So, set the goal of your life now and work toward it!
Be yourself.
However, it is so vague that you don’t really know where to start to ‘be truly yourself’, do you?
