Where's My GPS?

During my radio interview on Monday someone commented - "It's all well and good telling people they need to decide where they want to be in life, but most people don't know how to get there".  It's a good point, so here are some important directions...

5 Key Landmarks To Get Where You Want To Be
 
Follow this simple 5-step plan and learn how to reach your destination in record time: -

1.  Be Nosey

Watch, question and read about the people you find inspiring.  Talk to those who have done what you want to do - how did they do it?  As I mentioned in 'How Can You Do Better Than Your Best?' we have strategies for everything we do so it's time to start copying the people you admire.

2.  Get Excited

It's great to admire other people and discover how they've achieved success but YOU are the important one here.  So what gets you excited?  What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail and there were no restrictions?  This is the yellow brick road that you need to start following...

3.  Tell People...the RIGHT people!

It's important to get your dreams, ambitions and ideas out in the open to increase your commitment and drive, but it's equally as important to talk to the right people.  Only discuss your future with those who will support and encourage you.  Pick your support team wisely.

4.  Don't Kid Yourself

We can all imagine what the perfect future would look like but on most occasions we simply choose to ignore it as the other options in our lives appear safer.  The problem with safety is that it can bring us to a grinding halt.  Stop ignoring what your vision of the future is telling you and instead start to make it real.  If you've dreamed of being an airline pilot how will you ever know what if feels like until you sit in the cockpit of a plane. It's time to take that first lesson...

5.  Be Responsible

Stop waiting for a lucky break or a lottery win!  If this is your ideal future you need to show commitment to it.  Once you're truly committed you'll be amazed at the results you'll start to achieve.  

So now it's time to get writing...grab a pen and paper and scribble down your action points for each of the 5 top tips above.  Enjoy being nosey, excited, and responsible!


Have a fabulous week,
