Reality - How to find where you are now.Where are you now? What is the reality of your current situation? In our last article we discussed how to set achievable goals, why you need to identify goals and the fact that goals are not set in stone, they can be revised and updated, and they may even change after you have answered some of the questions in this article. OK, so you've successfully identified your Goals, what do you do with them now? Where are you in your reality?
It's all very well knowing what you want, but, how are you going to get there?If you were setting out on a long journey with the best map in the world and knew exactly where you wanted go, it wouldn't be very easy to navigate to your destination if you didn't know exactly where your starting point on the map was. It therefore makes sense to know where we are starting from...A good starting point is to understand exactly where you are now. What is it that's making you want to achieve those goals? Perhaps the easiest way to find out what your current reality is, is to just ask yourself some simple questions? Take one of your top 3 goals you have identified and ask yourself these questions.... What's happening right now? What have you been doing so far to move yourself towards your chosen goals? What other resources might you need and where would you get them? Does your goal require any experience, special skills or qualifications? If you don't presently have them where can you get training?Is there a cost involved i.e time or money?...have you got or can you acquire them?
Taking your answers into consideration, think about your chosen goals, do they still seem achievable?... are they exactly what you want.It's OK to modify or even completely change them if you want to, now is the time to do it, after all they're your goals and you need to be fully committed to them, for you to reach them successfully. Get into reverse gear A useful tip....many successful people set and use goals to achieve their aims... no surprises there then, but, did you know that many of them do it backwards!!! They imagine they have reached their goals and then look back to see exactly how they did it... pretty cool eh!! Maybe you could do the same thing, just simply see, hear and feel what it would be like to have achieved your goals. Dream on!! See what you did first... then the next step...and the next...etc.... 
Let your imagination run riot, you never know it may come true!!!!!After all your unconscious mind can't tell the difference between reality and your vivid imagination... that's why dreams seem so real. Once your unconsciousees mind has seen your finished goal it will find ways to bring that picture reality, all you have to do is take advantage of the opportunities that it brings to your attention...simple....job done. What's next? In the next article we will discover how many ways you can find to reach those goals...we are going to brainstorm!!!!
