“Keep working, Keep striving, and never give up. Fall down seven times, get up eight. Without any commitment, you’ll never start. But more importantly, without consistency, you’ll never finish.” – Denzel Washington.
When you have big enough goals, you become unstoppable. When you take that big bold step towards achieving them, magic happens and the universe sends you supporters, doors open up that wouldn’t have ordinarily opened had you not moved. This shows that there’s magic in starting. When you start and move forward, providence – that divine power, moves with you.
Results = your story + clarity + strategy + effort x consistency.
These four steps are as follows:
Your Story
Your story answers the question “Who Am I?”. This means whatever you say about yourself gives an answer as well as an instruction to your subconscious mind which is your driver. Start to gradually move away from the fixed mindset and adopt the growth mindset.
Start to become more conscious and mindful of what you say after ‘I Am” because that’s what determines how you see yourself.
Clarity
When you are specific about what you want in terms of what it looks like; how long it is; how short it is; what colour it is; how high it is; how low it is. This helps you to focus on what matters most. The brain is a goal-seeking mechanism. It thrives when the goal is clear. Your clarity is moving from fuzzy to specific.
Strategy
This is when you clearly list the ‘How’ you’ll carry out the ‘What’ that you have set. The objective here is to move away from a complex strategy to a simple strategy.
Effort x consistency
The objective of this step is to remind yourself that good results are not achieved overnight, they require commitment and patience.
