Introduction

Do you ever feel as though you are just going through the motions? Do you ever feel as though you’re drifting through life without ever really getting any sense of inspiration, engagement, or excitement?

Does life sometimes feel like a series of uninteresting chores?

Or perhaps you’re perfectly happy and comfortable but you rarely feel challenged or excited. Maybe you spend most of your evenings on the sofa watching TV. Or even out at the pub with friends. Maybe you spend your whole life picking up after your children.

What will you be leaving behind when you’re gone? What is your great impact?

Look at people like Albert Einstein, like Newton, like Picasso, like Mozart, like the Beatles, like Usain Bolt, like Winston Churchill, like Neil Armstrong, like Nelson Mandela, like Shakespeare, like Mother Teresa.

Now look at your own life. Is there a bit of a stark difference?

Now you might argue that of course you’re no Einstein. You’re not a musical prodigy or a record breaking athlete. It would be overblown to think that you could ever approach the success of any of these historical figures or world-class celebrities.

But does that really mean you need to spend your time just… passing time?

And are you really happy that way? Or do you feel on some level as though there are better uses of your time?

Whether you’re happy or you feel in a funk, the truth is that life gets a whole lot better as soon as you fill it with meaning.

That means finding your life’s purpose. Finding the thing that you’re passionate about. And then focussing on that.

As soon as you do this, you will unlock entirely different levels of focus, of inspiration, of engagement, of charisma. Life suddenly has structure, it makes sense, and you become far more alive. You stop daydreaming and sleepwalking through life and you instead begin to forge your own meaningful path.

You’ll get more out of the time you have on this Earth, and truly there is little that is more worthwhile than that.

When you find your purpose, you’ll even become healthier… even become more attractive.

It won’t matter whether success follows because you’ll be content to spend your days pursuing this thing without any kind of financial reward.

But success very likely will come. Read on and discover why that is and why finding your purpose is what you need in order to change everything.

Chapter 1: Why Finding Your Purpose Changes Everything

So, why is it that finding your purpose can change everything? How does this help you to truly come alive? Why is this the key to success?

Have you ever heard someone tell you that they find passion to be a turn on? Many women say that they love seeing men who speak passionately about a subject, or busy at work doing whatever it is that they do. Why do you think that rock stars get so many groupies? It’s not just about the fame: if you go to a rock concert with a relative unknown they will still almost always have their pick of several women to go home with that night! The simple fact is that they’re doing what they love, they’re demonstrating skill and passion on stage and to the adulation of countless others. That’s a turn on! Women reading this: ask yourself when your guy is at his sexiest. Is it when he’s talking about something he finds absolutely fascinating? Or when he’s hard at work programming, or working out at the gym?

And the same works for men. Men might be a little less emotionally switched on sometimes and they may be unaware of just what it is they find attractive in their partners. But one thing that is always a turn on is seeing a woman who is passionate and driven. It exudes confidence. Think of that sexy violinist all in black, who is taken away by the music and who has the crowd eating out of her hand. Or an incredible dancer.

In fact, finding passion can actually be a trick for brining more romance and excitement back into your relationship. The sexist thing is the other. The unknown. It is seeing someone who is highly motivated and driven, who is passionate about what they do. When you spend all day on the couch with someone, the magic goes. You become too close. It’s hard to want what you already have.

Get some distance. All each other to grow. Explore your own individual passions and hobbies and let them do the same. And you’ll suddenly find that you both become more interesting to one another again. And for those of you who are single? Stop focussing outward by trying to impress people. Start focussing on yourself and what you love, and you’ll become endless more magnetic.

But that’s just a little bonus incentive. There’s far more to it than that.

Goal Planning Strategies That Truly Work

How To Reach Any Goal You Wish.

Chapter 1:

Mistakes, Personal Experience and Strategies

A lot of individuals are guilty of attempting to undertake their goals utilizing a series of trial and error approaches. They arbitrarily throw their energy out there with all their might on the few steps they acknowledge, believing that this will get them to their destination. They handle their goals in a hit-or-miss approach, and then hope that everything will turn for the better ultimately.

Although it might work in the short-term and on littler goals, it doesn't work with huge, long-run goals. For instance, you might get away with dropping off 5 lbs of weight by simply eating less and working out more, but to drop off additional weight and sustain that weight loss calls for proper strategy.

The Basics

A lot of individuals have this misconceived notion of goal accomplishment as they only come into contact with the events of others’ goals. They're not tangled in all the thought-processes, intricacies and literal planning that went into the accomplishment of those goals.

Have a look at Olympians. They don't win their medals because they merely blindly train daily. There are a lot of things that happen behind the scenes, like training by the most beneficial coaches, suitable diets, self-help courses to put them in the correct mindset, studying the correct techniques, and so forth. Microsoft didn't get to where it is today because of luck. It was by conscious strategizing and preparation that allowed the company to carve its particular niche in the market.

I've set and chased a lot of different goals in my life. My universal approach toward goal accomplishment in the past was to merely center on the goal intently and do everything I could to accomplish it. The most I'd ever done in terms of preparation was to simply distinguish my end target and engaged an arbitrary length of time in my calendar to work at it. That was it. Beyond that, it was all about just trying to get there. After all, that was what I believed success in goal accomplishment came down to. A mixture of one’s want of the goal and one’s doggedness.

While I did that, I confronted deviating successes depending upon what the goals were. For goals like making great grades, they were accomplished as long as I maintained assignments. Additional goals like bringing in more revenue, building my own business, and doing well in my previous job were all within my reach also, as long as I kept banging at them.

Nevertheless, there were particular goals I had trouble with. For instance, my dieting goal. I was never obese but I hoped to be slimmer. For the following 3 years, I noticed myself dropping time and energy attempting to hit the goal but bombing in the process.

I tried out all kinds of different diets. I attempted counting calories. I tried out different sorts of workouts, exercising daily, to not working out in the least. When I began on the goal, I'd come through in losing some weight in the beginning week. However, it never survived beyond that. After the beginning week, matters would go along status quo, and it was a matter of weeks before I'd go back to my previous eating habits, commonly eating more as well as I felt deprived.

It was absolutely puzzling and disappointing, as I couldn't understand how I'd get so much success with other goals, but not with a goal like slimming down.

Well, it wasn’t because I didn't desire my goal enough. I unquestionably felt that I was as passionate about this goal as I was about other goals. I believed that perhaps I wasn't relentless enough about the goal. Nevertheless, if I wasn't, I wouldn’t have expended years of my life working at it, would I? Something has to be wrong with the way I was attempting to reach the goal.

I finally got sick and tired of being on an emotional rollercoaster, questing after, and bombing repeatedly at this goal and beating myself up over it each time I bombed. I sat down to have a look at my state of affairs and name how I might truly hit this goal. I began looking around for tips. I was working at my business daily. In my daily work, I was always presented with big business goals and I had to deliver. I considered how I'd handle those goals to finally conquer them. Then it hit me what I was missing – a suitable strategy to accomplish my goal.
