Want It? Then You Can Have It!

You Can Have Anything You Want

 

Did you know that you can achieve anything that you put your mind to?  A lot of people don’t believe that and that’s why they never reach for what they really want.  Instead they ‘put up with’ what they have, believing that they don’t have the power to change their life.  

Reaching for big goals is scary and there’s a lot of work involved but if there’s something in your life that you really want to change it’ll be worth it.  All you have to do is believe right down to your core that you are capable of making these changes and you will achieve your goals.  You have to jump all in and ignore any doubt you’re feeling – just keep pushing forward.  If the end result is important enough to you, you will take the steps to get there and you will be successful.  

Tips That Will Change Your Life:

 

Take complete responsibility for yourself.

Know that you are completely responsible with how your life turns out.  No one is owed anything in life.  If there’s something you want, you have to go after it and if you fail all you need to do is go at it at a different angle.  You can’t blame people or circumstances for your situation.  There have been many people who have overcome unimaginable obstacles to reach success.  Once you realize that you are 100% responsible for your quality of life you’ll start making the changes you need to achieve the results you want.

Write down your goals.

Grab a pen and write down what you really want and 5 reasons why you want it.  Become obsessed with your goal.  Think about your goal and your reasons every day.  When you do this an amazing thing will happen – without even thinking about it you’ll start taking steps that will lead to your goal and the people and knowledge you need will seem to magically appear.  It’s not magic.  The opportunities and tools have always been there for you but it’s not until you’re actually looking for them that they appear.  Here’s a little exercise to try.  Close your eyes and think about how many blue things there are in the room you’re in right now.  Now look around the room and count how many blue things you can see.  There’s probably a lot more than you realized because when you’re purposely searching for something and you’re focused on that one thing, all of a sudden it seems like you’re seeing more of it.  Open your mind and eyes to the opportunities, knowledge and people you need to help you achieve your goal.

Commit to the process.

You have your goal written down and you’re ready to go after it.  It’s important to keep your ultimate goal in mind but don’t just focus on the outcome.  There will be a process involved in getting what you want and you have to fall in love with the process because it’s what you’re going to need to be doing every day to achieve the goal.  Commit 100% to the process and you’ll be successful at getting what you want.

Block out self-doubt.

With any major change, there’s going to be times that you’re going to doubt your ability.  Don’t let those thoughts take up residence in your brain.  When you have those moments of self-doubt just understand that it’s normal to feel this way and it actually means that you’re on the right track.  Push those thoughts out and just keep moving forward.  I almost completely destroyed my business because I made a decision based on fear and self-doubt.  Luckily, I was able to turn it around and it turned out the be a very valuable lesson for me.

Truly believe it is possible.

More and more studies are proving just how powerful the mind is.  Napoleon Hill knew this and wrote about it in his book Think and Grow Rich, which he wrote in 1937.  If you’re looking for some good personal development reading you have to read this book   If you truly believe to your core that something is possible it will be possible for you.  Humans respond to what the brain expects to happen, so if you expect success and honestly believe it will happen, it will happen!  If you’re thinking ‘ya right, just because you believe in something doesn’t mean it’s going to happen’ than you’re in the wrong mind set.  Start training your brain to believe that what you want is possible and learn how to shut down the negative thoughts.  Decide what you want, know that you will achieve it and it’ll happen.

Your Life Your Way

 

I know that making changes is scary and sometimes it seems like it’s better play it ‘safe’, but when you think about the grand scheme of your life how do you really want that to look?  Is right now good enough for you?  Do you feel like you’re settling for something that’s not fulfilling?  Is it worth settling for?  Don’t settle for what you think you deserve, go for what you know you deserve!

How To Change Your Life In 3 Easy Steps :)

Change Is Scary!

 

Most people at one time or another want to make changes in their life.  It could be a fitness goal, a relationship goal, a business goal – could be anything.  No matter what you want to change there’s usually quite a bit of apprehension when you start thinking about change.

What To Do??

 

If you really want to change your life you need to have the right mindset.  Here are 3 beliefs you need to have in order to get your mind right!

1      Believe that something MUST change.

 

I’ll use the examples above.  Fitness Goal:  Do you want to get in shape because you think it would be nice or because your health is at risk or your joints hurt too much to stay the way you are? Relationship Goal:  Do you want to make changes in your relationship because of a couple of minor issues or because you know your relationship is going to end if you don’t do something about it right now?  Business Goal:  Do you want to change something in your business because you think it could be a good idea or because if you don’t make that change your business will fail?  You have to absolutely believe that if you don’t make the change the consequences will be FAR worse than the discomfort you might experience as you start to take steps toward your goal.

2        Believe that you and ONLY YOU can change it. 

 

You have to take full responsibility for the changes you want to make.  You can’t rely on someone else to make the change for you.  Make this change your personal mission.  If you’re relying on someone else to do it then maybe you don’t really want it as much as you thought.  Let’s look at our examples above again.  Fitness Goal:  if you want to get healthy you have to exercise and eat healthy.  No one can do that for you.  Relationship Goal:  maybe you feel that you and your partner aren’t communicating enough.  You have to step up and communicate that to your partner – they might not even be aware that there’s any problem at all.  Business Goal:  if you want to take your business to the next level you have to decide what steps you need to take and take those steps – no one is going to do that for you unless they get a part of your business.  

3       You HAVE to believe that you CAN change.

 

You can do amazing things when you set your mind to it.  People are motivated by two things: to avoid pain and to get pleasure.  If you want to change a behavior pattern all you have to do is associate pain with the behavior pattern that’s keeping you stuck and associate pleasure with the behavior pattern that will get you unstuck.  Let’s look at a fitness goal.  Let’s say your fitness goal is to get healthy so you can keep up with your kids and right now you’re eating a lot of junk food and not exercising.  In your mind eating junk food equals pleasure and exercising equals pain.  All you have to do is swap that thinking!  Think about all the things you dislike about not being able to keep up with your kids and being unhealthy and attach those bad feelings to eating junk food.  Then think about all the pleasure that being strong and fit brings and attach those feelings to exercise.  Same thing with our other examples.  Attach your unhappiness to the behavior that’s keeping you stuck and attach happiness to the changes you’ll need to make to get you to your goal.   

You’ve Totally Got This!

 

You have within you everything you need to make any change you want in your life.  Decide what you want and go get it!
