Why Most Goals Never Manifest
Dear Fellow Achiever
I am sure you understand the concept of setting goals in life to empower yourself. What you may don’t know is that goals require a constant stream of force behind them to keep them alive. In other words, you need to push them all the time to make them come true.
This constant pushing of your goal, while necessary, is also a detriment to effective manifestation of the goal itself. Goals are artificially created by the mind and backed up by concepts and beliefs in order for them to work.
Take away the concepts and beliefs that give them the foundation to live and they will evaporate in no time.
How does this look in practice?
Let’s assume you have a goal to lose weight. As you may already know, it is important to set your goals precisely. So let’s say you want to lose 25 pounds over the next 3 months, starting today. This goal needs a foundation to work. You need to have some sort of motivation that encourages you to do this.
Let’s look at some reasons you may want to do this:
- You want to look attractive to others
- You want to look attractive to your partner
- You believe that you are overweight
- You want to fit into your favourite dress or suit again
Whatever the reason is, you absolutely need to have one, otherwise you won’t have the motivation to start. And the mere act of starting is the challenging part as you need to change some of your usual behaviour and concepts in life. We all know what a challenge changing your behaviour and concepts can be!
Behaviour is changed in the physical domain, concepts are changed in the mental domain. This double whammy of physical and mental change is what makes a simple thing like weight loss such a challenge to bring off successfully.
Successful goals always come from a corresponding change in the mental domain.
Why is this?
Simply, it is because your mind and your thoughts are what create your reality. If you change only your behaviour, you will have only short-term success. In time, you will fall back to your old pattern of behaviour – the very thing you tried to change in the first place!
So lets assume you are in the second month of your weight loss goal and your partner leaves you. What happens to your goal about losing weight? It doesn’t work anymore, it vanishes and evaporates into thin air. You just took away the foundation and the motivation for your goal. As you can see, the problem with goals is that they depend on life circumstances – and they are always forced by mental concepts.
The ‘WHY’ you want something is your personal motivation!
However, before you can know ‘WHY’ you want something, you have to know ‘WHAT’ you want.
The ‘WHY’ you want it gives you the ‘ENERGY’ to be creative. Your ‘ENERGY’ is driven by your ‘THOUGHTS’ that develop into ‘IDEAS’ to get the ‘RESULT’.
Your personal power is your ability to ‘ACT!’
