We all have dreams and desires but if we do not know how to
go about achieveing them they are nothing but pipedreams. But
with a clear plan in mind one can turn the pipe dreams of today
into the reality of tommorow. In life, we need reasons for
what we do. Goals keep us from just reacting to what's going
on around us. Goals can inspire and motivate. They help us
make our life happen rather than letting it happen. Most of
all, Goals produce results.

There are three main points to goal setting:

1. Clarifying your unique goal
2. Reinforcing your goal
3. Tracking, Measuring and assessing progress

In this article we will look at each one of these steps and
access how they work. All around us the internet is
changing. Because of the so called recessison, everyone is
starting to charge for what once was free for the taking.
Every site had free stuff. Some still do, but, for example, I
had a free list a Listbot and now they are charging. I was quite
happy with my site and thought about staying with them even if
they charged. However my small ezine is not in a financial
postion to pay the prices that Listbot will charge.

So what to do? Why are people charging for everything that was
free? The media tells us that stocks for dot.com's are
down. All around us dot.com's are failing. So if this
little ezine was to survive I needed to get a really good
map of where I was going.

Well, I am a person who dreams the impossible dream -- always
have and always will. I have been told since I was a child that
I was a dreamer. Well I am, and as I said, will always be but the
difference between my dreams and some others I talk to is that I
accomplish them.

Believeing that I can accomplish anything I set out to do and I
deserve success is the first step in accomplishing any goal. How
did I get this belief in myself? Partly because to my parents I
was the 'apple of their eye.' They believed I could do anything
including fulfill their unfulfilled dreams. I never did do that
but I have fulfilled a lot of my own dreams. So with experience
behind me I learned that if I stay focused, I can accomplish the
impossible dream.

So why should a little recession or other dot.com's going down
influence my little ezine? One thing I don't do is listen
to the media much even though as an ezine owner I am part of
that media. I need to stay focused, and that is why I do not
listen to negative input from people or the media; it just breeds
fear and fear never accomplishes anything. So I go apart in my
own little world and I dream my impossible dream. If I want to
know where I am going I must have a clear picture of where I want
to be in the next year, five years and beyond that. Life is for
living and I intend to live fully until I die.

I find that getting away from the computer and writing down my
goals helps me. I personally have to sort through wants and
desires, and values to define where I want to be. This step can't
be vague. One has to be like that little child at Christmas that
knows what she wants, that doll, that bike. Often when I am
meditating on goals I try and recapture that feeling of childhood
where I could feel myself playing with that pretty doll, brushing
her hair, or riding that bike, wind in my hair. Wanting this one
thing more than anything, thinking I would die without it. This
is the kind of feeling you have to have for what you want before
you write your goal.

Then the next step is to weed out the wants, desires, brought on
by what others say you should want and by family programming of
what you should be doing. Well-meaning friends and family often
make suggestions. But this is your goal and you need to draw
upon your unique dream to pull out this goal. This is a process
that can take weeks to or months achieve, but don't get
discouraged that things are not moving fast enough. This is a
really important step because this is the basis of your map of
getting what you want in life.

One of the common pitfalls at this stage is to be in a all or
nothing frame of mind. I want all of this now not later!
It is important to set goals that are medium term and easily
recognizable so one can say to themselves, 'Yes, I am on my
way because I have accomplished this goal. Now on to the next
one.'

Another pitfall might be to set goals that disrupt everything
else in your life. So look at this carefully. What would you do
if you had no obstacles to doing anything you want in life.
Believe in yourself you can do it. Don't be a perfectionist if
everything doesn't go just as you plan and give up. This all or
nothing kind of thinking has no room in this plan. You are
developing a plan that is uniquely yours, that will make you
desire having it just as you did that Christmas doll. Also,
choose who you share your goal with carefully as it is fragile,
not yet manifested and of this world, and can easily be smashed.
There is a time to share with others, but not yet. Solidify it on
paper; this brings it as a real thing into the real world.

So now in the next few weeks or months you will know where
you are going and why you are going there. You no longer are
lost in the forest. You soon will be able to draw a clear map.
Next week I will write on the clear map. How not to buy a ticket
to Seattle when it is San Francisco you long for.

Remember dream the impossible dream.
