EASY STEPS TO ACHIEVE THE MOST DIFFICULT AND UNCOMFORTABLE GOAL (The goal you will always procrastinate when solving them)



Every goal is achievable but some goals are difficult to achieve or even start due to their nature and difficulty. Sometimes it gets so tough to the extent that, you feel like giving up. Sometimes the difficulty of it will even demoralize you before you even start. This in turn will make you procrastinate or give up forever. But with the help of experienced people, knowledge and a best strategy, every goal can be achieved no matter how difficult, boring, uncomfortable, and unachievable it may be. I learned this from great speakers like brain tracy, Jason Nazar, jim rohn and zig ziglar. I will like to share these few principles with you in the below steps. Hope it helps improve you ways of achieving goals.


·         Ask yourself the WHY question: if you find yourself procrastinating in solving a particular goal, sit back and ask yourself why you are doing that. Come up with many reasons for your procrastination. List them down in a form of table. By their side, try and come up with ways of overcoming those reasons. Eg

REASON FOR PROCRASTINATING
WAYS OF OVERCOMING THEM
I don’t get enough time to start
Start planning my day, use my  leisure times, wake up and work at dawn, work at launch time, weekend free time usage, create time table etc
I don’t have money and help to solve my goal
Ask for help from others, sell some properties, get loans, start writing proposals, etc


         Change your perception towards that particular goal: it’s unfortunate but the reason why you are finding it difficult to achieve your goal is because of the way you perceive it in your mind. If you think the goal is difficult, boring, impossible to solve, it will start reflecting in the way act towards it. You will give up in your mind and kill the enthusiasm to solve it. You will not be encouraged to even try. It won’t be fun or challenging to do. I remember those days when I was trying to learn new lessons under my profession. I always found it difficult to learn. The reason was the way I perceived them in my mind. When I learnt the need to change my perception towards those lessons, I found ways to enjoy those lessons. If you tell yourself that a goal is difficult and impossible to solve, it will be difficult and impossible to solve. So start changing your way of looking at things, ways of solving these problems will come easily and simple. 


·         Break ways of solving the goal into million small steps: Difficult goals can easily be solved if broken into many steps. I learnt this from brain Tracy in his interview with Vic Johnson at 2004 Jim Rohn weekend event. He quoted henry ford statement and said that, the biggest task in the world can be accomplished if broken down into various small steps. This may include, creating time table, making a phone call, making little research, changing perceptions, reading a single page in a book, talking to a friend about your task, writing proposal, etc. break down the steps into many small steps as much as possible. Start working on the small steps little by little till you achieve all of them. With this formula, solving any task will be less difficult than you think. 


·         Focus on the benefits of achieving the goal than the problems accompanied with the goal: i was one day listening to an audio tape from Anthony Robbins and he spoke about the use of pain and pleasure principle in achieving a particular goal. He said that, in order to achieve a particular goal, you have to associate it with the pain and pleasure principle. You need to ask yourself what you will lose if you procrastinate and what you will benefit if you achieve your goals. If you know for example that, you will lose a big contract, money, opportunity, pride, integrity, respect if you procrastinate, the thoughts of procrastination will leave your mind. If you also see the benefits you will gain by achieving your goals, the pleasure in it will empower you to take action. Associating pleasure to taking action and regrets to not taking action is another step in overcoming or achieving the most difficult goal in your life. 


·         Ask for help: You can’t design a website if you not a web designer or graphic designer. You can’t build a house if you not a building contractor. Some things in life need others to achieve them. If you get an idea that is way beyond your profession, achieving such goal needs experts under those fields. So it will be easy if you contact the experts than trying to achieve them all by yourself. When I started my entrepreneur journey, I wanted to do everything myself. But a friend of mine told me the time I was wasting, trying to do everything myself. He advised me to find help from experts. I tried some by paying, begging, signing contracts, partnering, selling shares etc. but it all worked in my favor. i was able to achieve more goals, work faster, effectively and professionally. Try it and see. But remember that, it will be a little difficult or less difficult to find those experts. But with determination, you will get it done.



·         Truly Desire the goal and Never Stop Persisting: Napoleon Hill, in his landmark book, Think and Grow Rich said that "The starting point of all achievement is desire. I have studied this quote and found it to be true. Keep this constantly in mind. Less or weak desires bring weak results, no matter how you pray to God. So, if you want to achieve your goals. you've got to really desire for victory no matter what happens. This in turn will deepen your persistence level, encourage you when the going gets tough etc. 

You will be able to achieve or complete any difficult task if you follow above proven steps. You will be able to perform small and impossible task if you stick to these steps.
Get up today and start doing something. Nothing is impossible to achieve or complete.
