How to Turn Goals into Reality

There is lot’s of advice out there about the importance of goal setting, and having clarity on where you are going both at work and in your home life. However, we all know from experience especially around New Years Resolutions that setting a goal and turning it into a reality are two very different things. So How do you turn your goals into reality? The idea of this article is to provide you with my favourite top tips and questions you can ask yourself to help find out if this is a goal that you really want to achieve both consciously and sub-consciously. Because if you arent 100% aligned with the goal, passionate about, committed to it, and envisioning success then it’s going to be hard. 1. First, what is it that you really want? Create a really clear picture in your head of what it is. Take a few moments to picture in your head what success will look like. How will you feel, what will you be able to see and hear? Who

How 60 minutes on a Sunday can change your Life!

Monday morning comes around —and there are typically two types of people out there: 95% of people wake up in a fog, scattered, and putting out fires. They have no clarity on where they’re going —they simply want to make it through the day as fast as they can, so they can come back, “relax” and/or lay on the couch, binge-watching Netflix. (Not that there’s anything inherently wrong with Netflix…but distraction is usually a feedback mechanism for a lack of clarity and purpose.) Then, there’s the 5% of people who wake up with intention —they’ve designed their day based on a broader desire or vision. Their actions, rituals, habits, and environments support where they’re headed. There’s a peace and calm, balanced with a deliberate focus to start their week. Now, there’s no question who is more likely to create meaningful progress in their life and business between these two. But if you’re an entrepreneur, freelancer or work for yourself in some capacity —this becomes even more important. One of my most prized rituals which I teach

The Power of Habits

Want to know a secret? Want to be able to be happy all the time? Want to be able to progress at work? Want to get fitter, healthier, lose weight? Here’s the secret: Habits We might think habits are boring, but here is what happened to me. I was listening to the audio book Atomic Habits by James Clear, and you know how sometimes it takes a few times of someone saying the same thing several times in several ways…..Well, this time I finally got it. James explained how habits transformed his life, and now they have mine. Habits are everything, they are who we are, they are what we do. They are automatic. They are painless.

What is Procrastination, and How do I stop procrastinating?

Procrastination – “the action of delaying or postponing something” Or as the ancient Greeks called it Akrasia. As far back as Aristotle and Socrates humans have recorded observing the conundrum of ‘why people do things against their better judgement’. Why do we put things off and lack in self-control? Why do we do procrastinate? Behavioural Psychologists put it down to rewards and time. If you can have a small reward NOW, then that can be a  more powerful motivator than a large reward later. This is known as Time Inconsistency. Our Future self is very good at setting goals, but it is our Present self that takes action, and our present self is motivated by what happens now. If you stay on the couch, where it is nice and comfy, that, can be perceived as being a greater reward than the future possibility of, being fitter and healthier, should you decide to get up and go for a run. The Present self is all about instant gratification. So to move from procrastination to taking

Are you standing in your own way?

Achieving goals is not always easy even if you make them S.M.A.R.T Goals (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic & time bound) or even D.U.M.B. Goals (dream driven, uplifting, methodical/manageable, and beneficial behaviour based). The Question is: Are you standing in your own way? Are you hoping for success, or expecting success? Here are 10 ways you can turn your goals around so that you can break through to success. 1. Passion for the Outcome and the Process! Goals are about moving towards a future vision that you can be proud of, that you are passionate about. Without that yearning, that sense of desire, that attachment to the process as well as the outcome it is hard to demand more of ourselves. Often we inadvertently take on the Goals of another person, be these suggestions from a well-meaning friend or family member or health practitioner. Or perhaps we have just looked at someone else and decided that we want what we view to be “their life.” As a way of getting started this isn’t always a bad thing,
