The critical part of setting a goal is to determine “WHY”this is important to you.If that is compelling then it will drive you toward the actions required to achieve the goal.Setting a goal and writing it down, and signing your name to it sends a clear signal to your conscious and subconscious mind that creates positive pressure.It is critical to also write down what you will gain from achieving your goal, and why you are committed to making it a reality.Also identify what it will cost you not to achieve the goal.Positive affirmations like” I deserve to have this happen” or “”I know that I can do this” or “”I am able to do whatever it takes” Drop the” I cant “and substitute ” I will”.
