Achieving Your Goals -- 5 tips from James Arthur Ray

Over the last few weeks, I've been creating a new program designed to "Get You Going From Where You Are Now in Your Life to Where You Want to Be"... this program is a step-by-step guide to achieve the changes in your life you desire.

Any changes in your life requires setting goals... making plans... and taking appropriate action towards successfully achieving your goals.

I came across a brief interview of James Arthur Ray talking about his new book "Harmonic Wealth"... in this interview, James Arthur Ray shares 5 tips to successfully achieve your goals. 

James Arthur Ray is down to earth... and what makes him such a good teacher is he lives by his beliefs and he has a great sense of humour.

Here is a summary of James Arthur Ray's thoughts:

• we are a spiritual being having a physical experience, therefore we need to do those things we find inspirational.  Most people do things because they feel they "should" rather than putting their energy into activities that really inspire them
• it's important to specify your intentions -- describe in detail what you are going to do and when you are going to complete it.  In other words, if you want to earn more money, you need to specify what more money means to you, and when you are going to do this by.  Make your intentions, your goals, specific and measurable 
• maintain your attention.  It's easy to get distracted and put off our goals, but if you truly want to achieve something you have to keep focused on it.  Remember... energy goes where attention flows so keep your attention on what you choose to bring into your life.
• be grateful not only to those around you and to yourself... but also to your source, to the universal energy, to your "God".  Gratitude is the most powerful magnetic force in the universe
• be enthusiastic in your thoughts, feelings and actions
• action is important.  Act from your outcome, in other words act as though you have already achieved your goal rather than taking action towards your goal e.g. if you want to earn $100,000 per year, ask yourself how would someone act who already is earning $100,000 a year

Basically these are the same teachings as 'the secret'. At the very least even a skeptic might agree that looking at life that way will make you feel better. People who feel better, do better.. so that might be a starting point if you find it difficult to see yourself making 100.000 a year.

Thanks for your comment...

for me that is the beauty of universal laws, of the underlying message of the secret, that anyone can achieve the life they desire by aligning their thoughts, emotions and actions with what they truly want in life.

Getting what you want, getting a better life, isn't rocket science or available to a select few... it's available to everyone!
