I just wanted to share this with you...
A lot of people struggle to get what they want.
You have probably done it as well.
I am going to list a few things to do that will help you make the difference.
1. ATTITUDE
Have a positive attitude, look at what you are saying and pay attention.
If you are looking at something like, "I am struggling, I can't afford things" you need to change that.
2. REFRAME YOUR ISSUES
If you have something bad in your life, look at the positive side.
I developed cancer and a brain tumor, got on permanent disability because of it.
Do I think it is a bad thing?
There is no point in doing so...
I look at it as a blessing.
If I had not had that happen, I would not have had the chance to get together with my fiance.
So that is a reframe - it is putting it as a positive instead of a negative.
3. MAKE A GOAL
Define your dreams!
Don't just sit there and think that just wanting something will make it happen.
You need to know what you want, exactly, and realize that ONLY if you have specifics will you have something to work for.
4. TAKE ACTION
If you want to get your goal, you need to move to make it happen.
Spending all day watching TV will not get you the $5,000 you want this month...
5. PLAN FROM THE RESULT BACKWARD
From the goal you made, you need to decide what it is that will let you get there.
Then figure out what it takes to get those things.
Do it all the way backward till you are at the place where you can do it right now to start there.
This goes hand in hand with the step above, to take action.
6. EXPECT THE RESULTS YOU WANT
Decide to believe yourself and then BE the person who has what you want.
If you want to get something, you need to follow this:
BE the person who has what you want - even before it.
If you are wanting money, you can be the millionaire that just hasn't had the check yet.
I am not saying this in being delusional, but rather just to have the right attitude and feeling.
DO the actions to get you what you want
and you will finally
HAVE the things that you want!
I agree. I think it all starts with the mindset and the attitude before anything else.
Great thread!
