Emergency Assistance To 2010 Plans

Have you ever had that idea for the project or direction in your life?
You see exactly what you want it to look like so clearly?
You know exactly what it will take to do the project, you feel so good about it's completion then you set out?
Your energy gets you a great start right?
You feel like the completion is practically done already even though you have gone yards on a journey that requires miles??? What happens next?

If your like the majority of us you have a slowing up of progress and eventually maybe a walking away. Why is that? Was the project any less desirable in it's accomplishment? no Was the reasons for doing the project not as important? no Was the vision less clear? no Then what is it usually?

Most seminars on goals and game plans misses the most powerful engine in the whole equation. The power of Today. . .

Here is what is really going on psychologically and emotionally when you go after a project. Let's take me for an example. I have been meaning to write a book on a particular topic that I am an expert in. I have written a few articles, but nothing very serious. I will begin and stop, begin and stop getting excited about the end and same scenario as above occurs eventually.

So what's missing? Is the finished product any less needed? no Will I enjoy the book not being done vs completing it? certainly not.

Here is what I discovered, and I am now 8 chapters into the book writing. So many times when we set out on a journey to tackle something great we are burrowing energy and excitement exclusively on long term vision and tripping up on the stumbling blocks two inches in front of ourselves.

Try this next time you set a goal. Enjoy the feelings of the completion, you will need these moments, they are staying power. They will keep you adjusting your trail to lead those feelings. Now map out a plan. It doesn't have to be "THE" plan just a plan. You can always adjust it.

THIS IS THE MOST MISSED STEP! Take the same excitement for the long term completion and look at the vision of this DAY you about to embark on. See the small action steps and get excited and energized about these. This is having vision within the day.

Too many times we get discouraged and get in our own way because we do great work in the beginning and then compare where we are to where we need to go. We come out the gates in amazing speed and fashion and then mundane tasks and obstacles make us sore. This takes from the gratitude of the journey itself. It makes the path obscure and clouds vision.

Today is the day that leads to those visions of your dreams. Enough of them done well added up will get you your every righteous desire.

Get excited about your vision of today...
