Ever drive along and wonder why it is that you're heading in the wrong direction?
Often this the way in which you go regularly, as you are on auto pilot brooding about other things. What if you were doing this in other areas of your life, whether you realized it or not?
The Miriam-Webster dictionary has a definition for goal, which states, 'the end toward which effort is directed? Given that lots of folk set goals, it stands to reason that you need to set your direction, right?
The gloomy fact of the situation is that if you do not set your direction, somebody else will, be it your manager, a partner, a mate? You get the picture. Its like you may be driving, but hey they?ve punched where you?re going in the sat-nav.
Before you know it, you've spent the best part of 20 years in a cul-de sac job, doing what others wanted you to do, unaware that all along you've had choice in the problem.
Most people go thru life considering all the stuff they don't want, and yet couching in terms that they believe are positive. Did you know any individual that wants to quit smoking, to drink less, to eat less, etc. ?
These folk might have thought they have set a direction, but they have not. You can?t drive forwards at speed while looking thru your rear view mirror.
The more we focus upon lacking on something, leaving it behind, giving it up, the more we end up being pulled towards it. You see there is very little to fill the void, zip to push you forwards, because you have got nothing to shoot at!
If you are "trying" to lose weight you ought to be targeted on what you need to be, and how you would be acting if you were your ideal weight.
If you would like to quit smoking, and you spend all your time giving up smoking, focusing on the cigarettes, it is not very likely to work. Maybe you go for a patch, but then you substitute one problem for another, but not where you would like to be!
What's the lesson here? Set your own direction and focus on that, and you?re more likely to finish up where you need to be.A good way of doing this is the usage of online vision boards within Facebook.
So be the driver instead of the driver in your life.
