Goal Setting

Setting a GOAL is an investment in yourself.
It clearly identifies what you want, how you will get it, and when you will get it.

Why Set Goals?
Goals can give you a target to aim for.

Goals can help you concentrate your time and effort.

Goals can provide motivation, persistence and desire.

Goals can help you establish priorities.

Goals can provide a roadmap to take you from where you are to where you want to be.

Power Of Goals

Harvard Business School researchers have researched what makes the difference in success or failure for people of similar backgrounds and educational standards.

Their studies find :

• 3% of people are successful - they have written down, specific goals
• 30% are moderately successful – they have a general idea of where they are going but don't have any goals formalised and
• 67% just exist in life - they are happy to watch the world go by.

Yet people in the 30% category only need to put in a small effort to jump into the next group. The secret behind the effort is 'the development of habits and strategies which support the achievement of clear goals'. What habits do you need to change in order to achieve the success you deserve?

Think about the following:

• Do you have a clear sense of purpose or direction for your life?
• Are you able to stay focused and concentrate all your efforts onto one definite aim?
• Are you usually able to make decisions and work consistently on them?
• Are you willing to take a chance on a positive outcome - even if it is risky?
• Are you willing to " do whatever it takes" - rather than "looking for something for nothing"?
• Do you control your negative thoughts?
• Do you practice good habits which contribute to your good health: Nutritious moderate diet; Regular exercise; Meditation or Yoga-type relaxation?
• Do you tackle tasks immediately - rather than putting them off and procrastinating?
• Can you persist in the face of difficulty? (When the going gets tough, many people give up)
• Are you willing to aim high? (Many people put up with average goals and mediocre performance)
• Do you seek out and surround yourself with people who encourage and coach you to great success? (Too many people listen to those who say "you can't")
• Are you willing to learn, read and acquire the knowledge and skills to make you a generalist (able to adapt to and succeed in almost any environment)? (People who become too specialised become "white elephants" who cannot keep up with the speed of changes in our society)
• Are you enthusiastic, committed and motivated?
• Do you proactively make things in life happen for you? (Victims wait for things to happen to them)

Reasons People Fail To Set-Goals

• They don't have a good reason to set goals.
• They don't know about it.
• They don't know how to use it.
• Fear.
• They feel too busy & disorganized.
• They get overwhelmed.

Most of our education system focuses on filling our heads with the 'what' of learning - data, facts and figures. The learner is often passive. Goal setting requires assessment and problem solving skills. Goal getting involves application and organisation. The learner is active and requires original thinking, lateral thoughts, personal independence and responsibility.

Which of the following reasons have contributed to your lack of consistent goal-setting:

• Not making the time.
• Don't know how.
• Do not believe in own ability to design and create own life.
• Wanting to please others and always do what you think others want you to do rather than choosing to do what you want to do.
• Too many interests and activities creating an illusion of "busy-ness" but with no real focus and direction.
• Fear of failure.
• Fear of success.

Why Use Hypnosis For Goal Setting

What your mind can conceive, you can achieve.

If you can think it and see it in your mind, you can do it!

YOUR-GR8EST-YOU Goal Setting Programme, using hypnotherapy, can help u achieve your goals.
Your MIND is an AMAZING source of power, capable of accomplishments beyond your wildest imagination.

To achieve the potential implied, the following are necessary:

DESIRE: your goal must be important to you. You must want it. "I'd like to..." is not sufficient. Your desire must be deep and permanent.

BELIEF: It is vital for you to believe that your goal is achievable, even if it seems impossible. Belief, also known as Faith, is a powerful force, capable of performing miracles. This is not necessarily a spiritual requirement. Your Faith must be in Your Self.

EXPECTATION: Hope won't do the job for you. Thinking that achievement of a goal would be nice is not sufficient. Expectation is required. Success is not a matter of "IF" it is a matter of "WHEN"! There is no room for you to have doubts.

DEMAND: Finally, it is essential that you demand of yourself the attitudes and actions necessary to fulfill this achievement.

Your mind conceives through visualization, which comes easier for some people than others.

Yet it can be learned and acquired through the processes used in YOUR-GR8EST-YOU Goal Setting Programme, using hypnotherapy - and the benefits last a lifetime.
