What are your goals?
“Some measure progress by what they own, others measure it by what they give. Of their time, their money, their expertise. For when you take its never enough. The more you give the more you receive.” - God’s Own Kitchen
The Five-Step Method to Attain a Goal, from the Monk Who Sold His Ferrari
From the book 'The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari', Julian visited John at his home and shared abundant impressive life lessons which are the legacy of the sages from whom Julian learned on the Himalayas Mountain. I find the five-step method to attain an aim and realize a goal very interesting, and it will be more rewarding if I can share it with you all here. The method is summarized as below: 1) Form a clear mental picture of your outcome This includes being aware of what your aim in life is. 'The purpose of life is a life of purpose.' 'Learn what you excel at and what makes you happy.' Many people are just surviving life by doing things they don't like to make a living and pursuing things as a fulfillment of social expectations rather than personal happiness and fulfillment. As long as we know what we are good at and what we love doing, we can achieve far more and far better. 2) Create a little positive pressure behind it Many people fail to adhere to goals when commitment is faded by time. We need to feel inspired and have some positive 'pressure' to continue our odyssey. The simplest pressure you may put on yourself is the announcement of your goals to as many people as possible, to your friends, family members, and even to the public. With this pressure, you will not let go of the goal so easily. 3) Set a deadline and commit to it by writing it down on paper Julian suggested that we buy a journal and keep filling it with all our desires, objectives and dreams attached with timelines to complete them. We need to know ourselves better, that is, our strengths and our weaknesses. At the end of the day, write in the journal reflecting what we have done in the day and review how we could have done better. 4) Apply The Magic Rule of 21 A habit can be built into a person if he does the new thing consistently for a period of 21 days in a row. I am convinced that this is somehow really true. I have applied the 21-day challenge to write about my journeys and now I just do it without thinking about doing it. 5) Enjoy the process 'A day without laughter or a day without love was a day without life.' In the process of achieving our goals, we should optimistically and happily enjoy the path we walk through though tough sometimes. We shall not regret what has happened in the past and worry about what will happen tomorrow but live our lives to the fullest today and right now. Don't push ourselves too hard when we feel that we have come to a limit. Take a little bit of rest and continue the odyssey with hope and smile. The lessons given by Julian are inspiring if you have read them. I might not have good use of words to re-produce his ideas. If you like these points and feel inspired, I definitely recommend reading the book.
