Get It Done-OR 3 Ways To Advance Your Goal




Focus In Labor Through Yoga
What do we mean by focus? In our modern day society it conjures up an image of someone concentrating intensely, maybe over his or her computer. The image is narrow and leaves little space for .....


1. WORK WITH THE END IN MIND- OR FOCUS ON SUCCESS



Beginning with the end in mind is the endowment of imagination

. If you are the programmer, write the program, says, goal

expert- Stephen R. Covey. Goals help us to focus, and the

quality of our attention is enhanced by a having a project so

cool and interesting that we cant help but make a leap. Lets

say, you want to organize your workspace so that everyone is

inspired to do their best work. The in-between steps: like

ergonomic concerns & planning comfortable lighting, in-and-of

itself can seem mundane, but joined together they name a bigger

accomplishment and by doing so, asks us to spice up our

expectations & upgrade who we are. Focus on success & keep in

mind how you want things to end up--And youll soon enough be

successful.



a. name the accomplishment



b. give your project a title



c. identify upbeat reasons for pursuing your goal



d. what needs to be done by when



e. how would you like things to end up



2. RAISE THE BAR-OR SHOOT FOR THE MOON Define greatness,

challenge the limits, double the goal, or try something

new...These are just some of the sentiments that put our plans

into action and move us towards revolutionary results. Look

around and you can see the the very essence of commonplace

activities being tested and re-imagined. Such as schools

re-defining Physical Education by bringing in activities

ranging from kickboxing to more esoteric offerings like tai chi

and yoga. And with the introduction of Blogs an international

conversation is in full swing with millions of links and a

central clearing house inspired by immediacy, intrigue and

tension. Raising the bar on a project can simply mean taking one

extra step, having an allegiance to a weird idea, or devoting to

a regular practice. Commit to a goal in a meaningful way,

personalize it & make it your own, and then watch an otherwise

sleepy project wake up and give way to a new found energy,

creativity and distinction .Shoot for the moon. Even if you

miss, you'll land among the stars."



a. double the goal



b. challenge the limits



c. create a regular practice



d. raise your standards,values or beliefs



e. make it a game



3. GO THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE-OR SHOW ME THE SHORTCUT

Sometimes a goal deserves a break. TIME MAGAZINE reported that

after 8 hours of sleep you'd be more than twice as likely to

find a shortcut for solving a problem. Suggesting that taking it

easy is good for the brain, and whats good for the brain is

good for the overall psyche and soul. Are you doing too much,

not getting nourished and being exhausted? Well perhaps its time

to consider another path. Dont re-invent the wheel. Pick up a

book written by an expert, join a group that's geared around

your project, sign up for an informational newsletter , or ask

someone to buddy up & help. For instance, if I was writing a

screen-play and struggling with a self imposed deadline, I could

simplify my project just by signing up for a writing class. What

with weekly writing tasks & in-class exercises this alone would

expedite the development of my script. Another over looked short

cut is to consider smaller steps. The smaller the increments the

easier the goal. Deng Ming-Dao, writes in EVERYDAY TAO, An inch

in one direction, then an inch in another already makes a span

of 2 inches. Gradually we can improve on that. Go the path of

least resistance, its a gift of energy.



a. dont reinvent the wheel-find someone whos done it before



b. slow down or change the pace



c. keep to minimum daily standards



d. write everything down--loose ideas vs. lost ideas



e. the smaller the increments the easier the goal
