So now you have written down what you want in your life, and let me be the first one to congratulate you! Congrats! Most people spend more time writing down what they are buying for dinner than being clear on what they want and need in their life to be happy. So well done! You have now taken a gigantic step towards your goals, by being clear on what you want and desire in life.
After you have written down what you want you are now ready for the next step, to answer the second most important question: Why? Why do you want what you want? What will it give you in your life to achieve those goals?
Your why is the most important part in achieving your goals. The reason for this is that all though it`s super important to have goals, your whys are your fuel towards your goals. If you don`t have the fuel you won`t have enough gas to get to your destination. Because there will be days where you feel you don`t have the time or energy to do the actions you have planned towards your goals and that`s when you need to have your whys. These are all the reasons why you desire what you desire. What benefits will it give you and the people you love when you achieve your goals? Will you have more to give to people around you? Will you be a better person? Have more energy? You can also write down what will happen if you don`t reach your goals too? What are you risking? Being unhappy? low in energy? feeling bad about yourself? Stressed?
It won`t be a good place to be, would it? And you wouldn`t be your best you. Your whys are your true desires and also your inner fears, and we need those to get us going, to fuel us to get as fast as possible to our new destination. Your whys will keep you going towards your goals on a regular basis and not make your goals into a new years resolution that you give up after a short while. Your whys, give you all the reasons you need to take the necessary actions towards your goal and will make it much easier for you to reach your goals.
So therefore, write down the following: 1: All the reasons why it’s very important that you reach your goals. Write down all the benefits that come to mind. How will it make you feel? Will you be proud of yourself? Get more inner peace or joy? How will it affect the people you are having in your life? How will they benefit from you reaching your goals? Okay, that’s step one.
Then step 2: Write down what the negative consequences you will risk if you do not reach your goals? What is the worst thing that will happen then? How will you feel? How will it affect you and the people you love? What will you lose by not achieving your goals? What will happen then?
That’s it! First write down the positive consequences and then write down what you are risking of negative consequences if you do not achieve your goals. Let’s go!
To get a smarter and an easier lifestyle, it`s important to see what aspects and activities you are having in your life. This so we can organize and make your days more efficient, so you can enjoy life more.
