3 Ways to Write Your Goals By Alex Work, YourGoalSetting.com

Did you know that there is a way to write out your goals that will give you a much higher chance at achieving your goals? Believe it or not, but something as simple as the way you are writing your goals has the potential to have a tremendous impact on your personal and career goals.

In this article we are going to examine the two common ways that people write out their goals. At the end you will be shown a proven and time-tested method of writing your goals that will greatly enhance your chances of personal success.

The following are the three common archetypes for those who write out their goals. Which one are you?

1.The Wishful Thinker. This is the most common type of goal setter. This person would rather wish and pray for things to come to them. The way that they list their goal indicates that they will accomplish their goal one day, if only someone or something would come along and help them along.

Some common ways the wishful thinker phrases his or her goals:

"I wish to be rich." "I hope to lose weight."

2. The Procrastinator. While this person also has big hopes, they are not leaving their chances at success up to chance. They are instead leaving things to time. Do you recognize the way these goals are phrased?

"I want to be rich." "I want to lost weight."

The problem with these goals is that there is no real need to get them done. They are hazy and vague, somewhere out there. There is no sense of urgency or need to get acting now.

3. The Here-and-Now. Lastly, we have this particular goal-setter, who instead of leaving their goals to time or to providence, have decided that they are going to live their goals.

"I choose to be rich." "I choose to lose weight."

The way that these goals are outlined plays a subtle mind trick on the brain, by convincing it that we are already acting towards them. Write out your goals in this manner, and you are making the essential decision to live your goals and not just wish them.
