Why Can't I Finish Anything?
12 Sure-fire Steps to Successfully Attaining Your Goals
|
by Jean Voice Dart, Author, Transformational and Wellness Coach
Do you need help with achieving goals? Do you often watch others succeeding and think, "Hey, why can't I do that?" Well, of course, you can! You are brilliant, creative, and remarkable and have something unique to offer this world, but for some reason, you are not getting it done. Why? Let's find out. You are not alone.
"With passion, purpose, and the perfect plan, you are well on your way to sure-fire success!"
Whether you are trying to change your vocation, lose five pounds, or just clean out the garage, learning the basics steps to setting and achieving goals can significantly improve your chances of success. With passion, purpose, and the perfect plan, you can succeed. If you have a well-thought-out strategy, you are well on your way to sure-fire success. Let's take a look at some of the most common reasons why people fail at achieving goals.
1. Too many goals? - Start with the Best One
Do you have too many goals, dreams, wants, and desires? Do you feel anxious and overwhelmed with so much to do? Start with one goal. Take time to discover what is most important to you. Ask yourself, "Which goal affects the success of all other goals and will make other goals easier to accomplish?" "Which goal is weighing heavy upon my heart and affecting my health and happiness?" Start with that goal.
2. Fear of success? - Believe in Yourself and Get Support
Often, people feel anxiety or fear at the thought of being successful. They worry about what might happen if they achieve their goal. A certain amount of excitement and anxiety is natural. However, if you feel frozen with fear, you might need help in overcoming these emotions blocking you from success. A coach, therapist, or health professional can help you identify your fears and move past them to accomplish your goal. Start with believing in yourself and knowing you can achieve your goal. Surround yourself with others who believe in you. "Start with believing in yourself and knowing you can achieve your goal. Surround yourself with others who believe in you."
3. Lack of Support? - Start Building Your Community
For most of us, it takes a team to accomplish our goals. Very few people have all of the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual resources, skills, and experience needed to achieve their goals. Seek out other like-minded professionals, friends, and family members who believe in you and have walked the same path. Whether it is expert advice from a blog, a video, an e-book, an experienced stranger you gell with on the bus, a social media group, or a professional, look for those who resonate with your ideals and purpose. Watch for people who identify with you, and with whom you feel a heart-to-heart connection. Seek out and build your community of support. YOU can do it!
4. Unwilling to Change? - Listen. Learn. Reset.
Many people fail because they have a limited understanding of the process of achieving a goal. They feel hopeless, discouraged, and give up. Goals must be modified. Greatness rarely occurs overnight. One only needs to look to great athletes, writers, performers, heroes, inventors, and other world-changers to know they all possess an exceptional understanding of what it takes to achieve a goal. Do you have unfinished projects all over the house - a broken chair, a bicycle seat you bought two years ago, but never put it on, a guitar siting in the corner, untouched after only two lessons? Are you unwilling to change course? Will you give up when times get tough? Most of us will succeed if we are willing to learn from our mistakes and begin again. You can do this. Learn from your mistakes, keep a grateful heart, and reset your goal...much more
