Happy New Year! Wishing you all the very best for 2007. To ensure those resolutions and plans you declare tomorrow night are more than fleeting ones forgotten once the decorations are down, consider using own of the following techniques:
GOAL JOURNAL
Writing down a goal is the first concrete evidence of a commitment to a goal. Keeping a journal that states these goals along with reflections about your motivation and how they support values provides an easily accessible guide to direction and progress. The process gives weight to their importance and subconsciously you will act accordingly. The journal also provides a record for other helpful strategies e.g. record of reviews and affirmations.
TREASURE MAP
Creating a visual picture of your goal, through collage, montage, or any media can really appeal to those of a visual nature. Creating a detailed picture of what you are aiming for and placing where you will see it often will enhance motivation. It also appeals to the visual mind, it now knows what you mean, and has a present tense quality that will encourage the mind to create evidence to support what it sees.
SUPPORT
Identify and inform those who you know will support, encourage and reward you. You may all be working towards similar goals and can journey together. You may be surprised at who you find – it may not be nearest and dearest, but having support form others provides positive feedback and external motivation.

Dare to dream and you will reap the benefits.

All the best
