How Do I Get Started? Where Do I Start?
If you want to do something with your life (other than what you are doing right now), you must CREATE a Goal.
Stop sittin' around on your ass brain-storming and thinking about "what you like and don't like" and "what you're good at" and "what you're interested in" and all that other crap!
Get the party started:
I know you've heard that saying a million times before, but it works.
The easiest thing to do is to write it down on a piece of paper and put it on your wall - by your bed or by your door.
When you wake up or when you get ready to go out to conquer the world, you want your goal to be the first thing you see. You want to stay focused on it. Burn it into the forefront of your brain.
If you have a desk, put it in a picture frame and stick in on your desk so that you see it.
If you can't stick on your wall by the door, put it on your wall by your bed.
"What if I don't know what I want to do?"
There could be a number of reasons why you're having a mental roadblock right now. I only want to list two of them.
One: You're distracted by other issues and problems. Too worried or angry to think straight.
Two: You're distracted by your interactions (or drama) with people.
Three: You're not aware of (or considering) the main issues in your life you want to resolve.
Four: You are limiting yourself and not considering other options or exploring other opportunities.
Think of your Major Goal. Then, work your way backwards.
Create a "Things To Do List".
Write down what you will NEED to do to achieve that goal and things that will give you the power, energy, and focus to achieve the goal.
Your needs will be any tools, training, supplies, resources, conversations or meetings, etc.
The things that will help keep you focused, powerful, and driven, are your personal necessities - the things you need to survive and the things you need to do to keep your mind and your world sharp and efficient.
Take care of these things right away so that you don't have to think about them.
Keeping yourself "ahead of the game" is what this is all about.
Don't allow the crap to pile up and overwhelm you. That's disrespectful to your Self. And, it makes it harder for you to concentrate on your Major Goal.
Moreover, be certain that the goal you're choosing is a Major Goal. Or, is it really a stepping stone to something bigger that you want to achieve???
Be sure that you have your Major Goal and Minor Goals written down all around you.
I like to use index cards and scotch tape my goals and "things to do" list on my walls.
Don't write your goals down so small that you have to hold the paper to your eyeball to see it. Write it Big enough so that it catches your attention easily. You want to be able to read Goal from anywhere in the room.
In fact, write it all down with a black marker (fine point) so that it's bold and stands out.
Don't hesitate, and don't be lame. If you want to be a Boss, you gotta' get in the game.
Get your hustle on right now.
