Reaching your Goals: Self-Improvement and Success 3

93. Reward yourself on the way- be happy with your progress. Whether your goal will take you twenty days or twenty years doesn't matter- the important thing is that you are doing it. You are getting there. To keep yourself motivated every step of the way, you need to reward yourself with small treats. Be proud of how far you have come and prepare for the journey ahead.


94. Look for role models- look to those who are on the same path as you for inspiration. Perhaps this is a CEO of the company; perhaps this is your father. Try to immerse yourself in their life and ask questions. Their positive energy may just rub off on you. And, if not, at least you are learning from the experts how to get where you want to go.


95. Make room for failure- it can't be a smooth road all the timethere has to be plenty of bumps along the way. In fact, it is these bumps that make the road worth travelling. Failure is a big part of our lives and we need to learn to live, love and laugh at failure rather than give in to it. Henry Ford once said that every failed attempt is just another opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently. Failure is experience and experience is power.

Negativity may be all around you- bitchy co-workers; unhappy neighbours; a depressing partner. Disassociate yourself from those types of people. You are in a happy, positive place- no negativity allowed. 88. Define your goals clearly- goals are what make life worth living. Think long and hard about what y...

importance. - Make time for Hobbies- it's important for people to have hobbies. As we get older it's easy to stop those extra-curricular activities that you loved as a child such as sports. Look for adult activities such as soccer teams, book clubs, rowing clubs or bird watching groups. Keep your passions alive by re-connecting with the hobbies and activities that you once loved. - Look down- take a hike to the top of a cliff that overlooks the city, or jump on an elevator and ride the lift to the top floor and look down. Seeing the world from this above can really put things into a new perspective. - Break the Pattern- get up, work, home, gym, dinner, TV, sleep. Does this sound like your pattern to life, or something similar? Break it up. - Find a Balance- it's all about harmony. Finding that perfect balance comes down to mind, body and spirit.

No one likes going to the dentist- but no one wants to lose his or her teeth either. 15. De-stress- remaining healthy is not just about go, go, go. You also need to stop, relax and re-stress. Stress is unavoidable at some times. The best way to deal with stress is to push away from it for a few minutes, let your body relax, and then tackle it head on. 16. Invest in Sleep- you don't need us to tell you how important sleep is. This is why it's a good idea to reward yourself at night with expensive sheets, a perfectly firm mattress and cosy down covers.
