Have you ever wondered why some people always seem to reach their goals while others struggle for a lifetime and never accomplish much?

If you want to reach your goals faster without struggling for years, then read on.

I’m going to share my FIVE steps to getting anything you want.

Step 1: DECIDE what you want

This is where you must begin because you can’t get what you want unless you know exactly what it is!

The SECRET with this step is to visualize yourself already having what you want in your life in great detail.

When you can do this, you’ll want to imagine what it feels like to have that end result when it’s already in your life.

This will give you MORE than just a positive attitude and will help you achieve what you want FASTER!

Step 2: Know WHY you want it

If you don’t have a strong reason why you want something, then you’re not going to stick with it long enough for it to actually manifest it in your life.

Your reasons can be either external or internal… it doesn’t really matter.

Having a powerful reason WHY will keep you pursuing your goals, even when the going gets tough.

Step 3: Believe you CAN have it

You can say you want something…

You might know why you want it…

But if you don’t believe it’s actually possible for you, then it won’t happen!

Step 4: Have FAITH it’s on its way

Ask yourself if getting what you want is even a small possibility in this world. If it is, and you choose to believe it, you can achieve it!

Faith is the opposite of doubt!

When you have faith, you don’t worry.

Step 5: Take MASSIVE, thoughtful action towards whatever you want

You calmly expect what you want to happen will happen. It will arrive at just the right time.

Massive, thoughtful action is what will bring it all together when:

  • You know what you want…
  • You know why you want it…
  • You believe you’re going to get it…
  • You have faith it’s on its way to you.

When you get to work by taking action in the direction of what you want, it’s going to show up.

Don’t forget to pay attention to the results you’re getting!

Many people start these five steps, then run into a roadblock, and quit. Now, we all hit roadblocks, but the key here is to adapt and navigate a new course around/over/through/under the roadblock and keep moving toward your goal.

That’s why I include the word “thoughtful.” Each thoughtful action will get you closer to your goal!

Conclusion

If you don’t pay attention to your results and just keep banging your head on the table, you’re not going to make much progress. So, act, think, adjust, and act again. (Lather, rinse, repeat.)

If you want to manifest your goals faster, you’ll have to start by doing more of what’s working.

Do less of what’s not working, and follow the steps:

  1. Identify your exact desired outcome
  2. Pinpoint the reason why you want that something
  3. Believe in your ability to achieve it
  4. Keep the faith
  5. Take thoughtful, massive action towards your goal

PS — Another way of looking at it is if you’re telling your spirit and subconscious that what you want is already in your life, then that thing will “magnetize” to you through your consistent thought and action.

You will start moving toward what you want and what you want will start moving toward you.
