Want to know a sure-fire way to achieve your goals? It’s a pretty simple solution. You might want to sit down because the simpleness might shock you. Here’s the guaranteed way to achieve your goals: All you have to do is just do your goals. You don’t need to do anything else. Anything you think you have to do in-between your goals is in actuality just preventing you from doing and ultimately achieving them.

Let me give you an example: Let’s say that your goal is to retire and live on a beach while surfing and playing the ukulele. Here’s what many people do to achieve/do this goal:

1. Go to college while collecting debt that they will pay off for most of their adult lives
2. Work at a job(s) they hate as a necessity for paying off their school debt for most of their adult lives.
3. Buy a house and other “necessary” items such as a car, big screen TV, etc. that put them into debt for the rest of their lives.
4. Work at more job(s) they hate as a necessity for paying off their credit card debt/loans they used to buy these “necessary” items.
5. Live an unhealthy lifestyle because they are overworked that give them diabetes, high-blood pressure, heart failure, depression.
6. Continue to work at more job(s) during their retirement to pay off their medical bills.
7. Hail Mary: Make their kids “help” give them their goals.

During this entire time, they are “taking the steps” to reach their goal, they are miserable, in pain, suffering and complaining about the “authorities” who hold them back. Worst yet, many have and raise kids whom may also have grand kids and then they proceed to tell them the “secret” to achieving their goals/dreams - which is to take the same above steps.

Does that make any sense to you at all? What has our school system, parents, government taught us, if that is the way they teach us to achieve our goals?

You want to know the best way to achieve your goal? Skip all of the garbage steps in-between and just do/achieve your goals.

Want to go and live on the beach while surfing and playing the ukulele? Then just go live on the beach and surf and play the ukulele.  Really, it’s that simple. That’s all you have to do to achieve your goal.

• Is your goal to spend more time with your kids? Then just spend more time with your kids.
• Is your goal to find the love of your life? Then just go out and meet people.
• Is your goal to live a healthy lifestyle? Then just live a healthy lifestyle.
• Is your goal to get in shape? Then just exercise.
• Is your goal to write a book? Then just write.
• Is your goal to travel more? Then just travel.

So why don't we do this? Why is it so hard for most of us to achieve our goals? Because we make excuses why we can’t achieve our goals. Because we make reasons why we have to do “other” things first in order to achieve our goals.  Because we believe others who tell us what we “must” do in order to achieve our goals.

Are you having a difficult time accepting this? Why is that?

Where do all these excuses, reasons, beliefs come from? Ultimately they come from our fears. Where do our fears come from? How do they control us? And how do we overcome them?
