It is December already and we are all beginning to harvest what we have worked for this year, some with disappointment and others with joy and a sensation of accomplishment. I am a big believer in writing down resolutions and goals. I keep a journal, in a hopefully safe place, where I keep track of my life’s ongoing road trip with its curves, detours, and inevitable bumps.
Writing down goals tells the world that you have a plan.
And, yes! It listens. We are all going on that road trip whether we want to or
not. We might cross paths several times, but for the most part we are on our
own. Having a plan (goals) helps the world conspire in your favor. Since, I
started writing down my goals, I accomplished all of them…Okay, except for
two*. That is to say that, when you picture a goal
while writing it down, you want it more and get a greater motivation to work
harder for it. It is similar to the old way of memorizing things by writing it
down many times.
The world can be manipulated in ways that it can be aligned with your goals, if and only if you really want it. Spoken words are visualized with more difficulty than written words.
