Well, How Do You Achieve The Seemingly Impossible Goal? How do you prepare your mind to enable you to achieve what you presently or previously believed to be impossible?
Impossible is just a word for what we have never done before, and don’t yet believe in. Many of us hesitate to commit to New Year’s Resolutions or goals because we think we will fail, or we have already failed, and the task we want done, or habit we want to break is impossible for us to achieve.
Negative Self Talk kills our goals. We assume because we have never done it before that we wll not be able to this time. “I can’t do that, it’s too difficult for me. I’ll never be able to pull it off. I just can’t.”
I have a favorite quote over my desk in my office: “The Universe is full of magical things, just waiting for our wits to grow sharper.” — by Eden Philpotts
And just when I am ready to dismiss something as impossible, I remind myself that what was once impossible has in fact been proven possible by many people, many times in our human history.
The power of the human mind has no bounds, no limits, except the limits we accept or believe to be true. Practice the four “B’s” and you will become unstoppable.
Believe. Become. Beware. Be You.
Believe
When anyone tells you that something is impossible what is your response? Not only your outward reaction, what are your inner thoughts?
Do you accept it and go on thinking to yourself, “Yeah! It’s probably too hard” or “They’re right. I could never make that work.”
Or do you just passively go on with your existence never to give it another thought?
Well, listen. S T O P thinking that way!
Before you achieve anything that you think may be even a little difficult, you must, I repeat, “YOU MUST” own the belief that it is not only possible, but that it is probable.
Then, owning that belief, you ask yourself some very focused questions.
– What do I want?
– What is the first ‘possible’ step I should take to be one step closer to achieve what I am after?
– Who can clear up any lack of knowledge that I need to achieve this? What do I need to research?
– What is my plan to get from Point A to Point Z? (and those points in between?) Evaluate each Point and write down what smaller steps you need to make in the journey.
Now it may become not just possible, but absolutely probable.
The most important objective to achieve anything on this planet (or out of this world) is to believe. Without belief there is nothing.
Do what you need to do to believe that you can make it happen with a little time, effort, and good plans.
When the U.S. decided to go to the moon in the sixties, they said they would have a man on the moon by the end of the decade. Not very many people believed it could be done, that it was impossible.
Well it turned out to be possible after all, because they did what they said they were going to do and they did it within the time they had set.
Become
Become what you focus on. Whether you want to or not, you will become what you concentrate your efforts on. If you concentrate on achieving wealth, you will become aware of opportunities to achieve that wealth.
If you allow yourself to become consumed with bad things that happen to you, you will become a person that bad things happen to.
You need to become just like the person you want to be like. This requires reading and diving into the lives of those who have already achieved what you are striving for.
You must become a filter for what you allow in and what you push out. Do this by reading what you want to learn. Listen to audio books that support your goals. Talk with people who build up your ideas.
Just remember you will become what you want, what you think about most of the time, even if others say it’s impossible.
Beware
Beware of the idiots. I have a friend who has a brilliant outlook on life. He is an entrepreneur and has many great ideas. Not only are they great ideas, some of them are actually making him quite wealthy.
There are plenty of people who would look at him and his ideas and tear down any effort he would make at trying to achieve.
Here’s the part you need to adopt and adapt to your way of life.
To the people who tear down or do not support his ideas, they are automatically dismissed as idiots. Those who support him and his ideas are always geniuses.
This is a great way to win! Develop your genius tribe.
Totally ignore and dismiss the idiot pool. Your associations and support team are tremendously important to the success of your undertakings.
Now you don’t have to be so raw about it calling people idiots (although it may help). You can still apply the same principle. Beware of the nay-sayers. Embrace the encouragers.
Surround yourself with geniuses. Few things will kill a million-dollar idea faster than idiots telling you it can’t work.
As Tony Robbins likes to say, “Stand guard at the door of your mind!”
Be You
Another thing that will kill a million-dollar idea faster than anything is not being yourself.
Being yourself is the most unique thing you can offer anyone. Why would you want to rob yourself of the most valuable asset you can offer?
Trying to be someone else is a nasty habit that is so transparent it turns off everyone who sees it. Don’t do it. No one likes a phony. But everyone loves those who love being themselves.
People are attracted to those who are glad to be themselves and are confident in who they are. These people understand that they are valuable being the only person they can be. Be yourself and don’t be ashamed of you.
Once you have accepted that you are valuable and are sure in who you are, you will begin to notice in a very short time that people will begin to be attracted to you. They will want to be around you and unconsciously want what you have got.
Use your ‘YOU’ power. Be yourself and you will be on your way to successful living.
Successful living isn’t easy. It’s simple but it isn’t necessarily easy. Stay tuned throughout the year for more valuable ideas and tools that will help you accomplish what others would say as “That’s Impossible”.
Belief in Your Goals: Key Reasons for Its Importance
-
Overcoming Limiting Beliefs: Believing in your goals is crucial as it helps you challenge and overcome your limiting beliefs. When faced with naysayers or daunting challenges, your belief serves as a catalyst to push beyond perceived boundaries. Instead of accepting impossibility, nurture a mindset that welcomes possibilities. Remember the words of Eden Philpotts: “The Universe is full of magical things, just waiting for our wits to grow sharper.” By expanding your belief system, you unlock the potential to achieve the seemingly impossible.
-
Fueling Persistence and Resilience: Belief acts as a powerful motivator, fueling persistence and resilience in the face of adversity. When you firmly believe in the possibility of achieving your goals, setbacks and obstacles become stepping stones rather than roadblocks. Henry Ford’s famous quote, “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right,” encapsulates this truth. By fostering an unwavering belief in yourself, you cultivate the strength to persevere and navigate challenges with unwavering determination.
