LOOK WHERE YOU WANT TO GO

“All who have accomplished great things have had a great aim, have fixed their gaze on a goal which was high, one which sometimes seemed impossible.” -- Orison Swett Mrden

 If you ask race car drivers how they are able to get themselves through those tight places without hitting anything, what they will tell you is this: “Look where you want to go, not where you don’t want to go.”

If you look at the wall, chances are, you will hit it. We can use this metaphor in our personal lives as well as our professional lives. We need to focus on what we want in life rather than on what we don’t want. All too often, people spend most of their time and energy thinking about what they want to get rid of, “I want to lose ten pounds” or “I wish I didn’t have these problems.” We need instead to focus on what we want. Sky divers are able to link up in midair by looking into the eyes of the person they want to connect with. Their bodies then follow and automatically move toward each other. I realized that this is the same principle in action. Look where you want to go, connect yourself to what you want to achieve, and automatically, you will hit it! Advance confidently in the direction of your goals and you will succeed.

Here are some A-Z tips to do these:

                                                   Harmony within the Self 

You may be a leader among men because you shall be guided and sustained by a power greater than yourself. You will have no conflict within you because you will create harmony within your “self”. The good in you will prevail and it will be your strength.  With your goals well planned, your values intact, your program activated, and your relationships with family friends nurtured, your life will be filled with joy and happiness.
