Goal Setting Tricks: How To Power Up Your Goal

The main task of this lesson is not only to state your goal correctly, but also get it on to a subconscious level and make it stick there. Our brain can code any information that it receives in two ways: in words and in images. Of course, a message that we want to send to our subconscious mind is a lot more powerful, when it is coded both ways.

This is especially vital to do if in your statement you use words with general meaning. For instance, words like “beauty”, “money”, “promotion”, “vacation”, “abundance”, “relationship” are hard to imagine, therefore they are coded only in “verbal mode” and have less chances to be registered by your mind.

The only way to solve this problem is to give your subconscious images of your goal!


For example, my goal is to go on a one month vacation this summer. This is how I imagine my “perfect vacation”:

This gives me a clear idea of my vacation, doesn’t it? icon smile Goal Setting Tricks: How To Power Up Your Goal

I urge you to do the same thing with your goal. Even if you think that you have no problem visualizing your dream goal, do it anyway. It helps you to stay focused on your goal.

You can find a lot of images using Google image search:

You can also browse through old magazines and cut pictures that you associate with your goal.

Create a vision for every goal you want to achieve and put it somewhere you can see it often. This will accelerate your success.

    Arina,

    I get your “Daily Quotes” and sometimes read your blog work. I am very busy and don’t often get time to communicate. I am sure that may be the case with many of your readers. However, I want to encourage you to continue your work. There are many of us out here that need to hear your message. I will make a greater effort toward improved communication with you in the future.

    Hi Arina,
    I enjoy all of your articles and have a particular interest in Goal Setting and subsequent Implementation.I have applied your suggested technique of Visualisation in my own life in the past both in sport ( even while actually playing when there was a few seconds break in the play!! ) and also in other important areas of my life for example my Career and Personal Development.I have always found it helpfull to the extent that it amazed me how very often “things fell into place” over time almost effortlessly.
    Keep up the good work that you are doing.

    One last thing,I was receiving your “Quote of the Day” up to a week or two ago but not recently.Please correct this for me as I looked forward to receiving them daily and reflecting on their wisdom.

    Best wishes for now and always,

    Brendan
