Mark Twain said: "Get the facts first, then you can distort them as much as you please."
You need to have crystal clear picture or intention in mind of what you want before taking action.
Why do you fail in some areas of your life? Is it because you just live without planning and thinking? Except of your problems, it seems to be inbuilt in humans that problems and worries always pop up in their mind, even the smallest worry becomes a major problem because we think so much about it.
Why do we not spend so much time thinking of everything that is going right? It seems that when things go right, we are happy for a moment and then the small problems and worries pop up again. Just to keep us awake.
What if we choose to be happy, is that possible? Can we live in an imaginary world that will eventually become our real world? It is much easier to say it than to do it. Although that seems to be one of the keys to success, it needs practice.
Having an intention and clear mind of what we want, will keep the mind on that intention and bring us near to our goals. We need to plan our future, we need to know what we want, to get somewhere.
When driving from point A to B, we look at the map and actually see how we will get from A to B and eventually we arrive to point B. Now if we do not have a map and no indication on the roads, is it likely that we will reach destination B? Hardly.
It is strange; we do plan a lot of things in our life, daily routine and daily tasks without noticing it, but not the great lines of our life.
Habits shape our life also, we were taught certain things in our childhood and we keep on doing them as we were taught. We were taught that certain things were difficult and even not reachable. We use the script that was installed in us with a good or a bad attentions but we use it without knowing it.
What if you start backwards when planning your life. Imagine that you are 80 or 90 years old and now you see your life backwards. Where are you at 90 and how did you achieve what you have achieved. It might be easier to plan your life this way and could be fun also.
You would have a compete plan of your life this way. You can always fill in more details afterwards to complete the plan.
There are many methods and secrets to reach our goals, which is the best and the most effective way is quite personal.
But what is sure is that without an intention or a clear mind you will live your life in a random mode. Where you will end up will always be the surprise.
You should not live your life like a lottery drawing, you have much more power and control than you imagine. You just need to use it.
Why not do the experience and plan your live backwards now.
Imagine being 90 years old now. Just for a short moment. What have you achieved in your life?
