How to overcome barriers
Module 4: More on Vision and Goals
Now that you’ve got your goal clearly in your mind, can you see anything that might stand in your way of achieving it?
List any barriers you can see or could come across. For each barrier, write down real ways that you can rise to the challenge and overcome them. If you want something strongly enough, nothing will stop you from achieving it!
Module 4: Vision and Goals
A goal is something in your life that you want to aim for.
You don’t need to make big goals; it could be something that you really, really want.
Setting a goal can be easy. Achieving a goal, however, isn’t as simple as you might think. It can seem really challenging to set yourself a big goal if you don’t know how to achieve it. But the good news is, there’s a simple trick to getting where you want to be and I’m going to share it with you!
Having trouble thinking of a goal you really want?
- Make a list of things you want more of e.g. “I want to travel more”.
- Make a list of things you want less of e.g. “I don’t want to have debt anymore”.
- Make a goal based on these things.
- You can make multiple goals if you want. Just keep it realistic, no-one can do everything at once.
- If you’re still struggling, ask yourself “Wouldn’t it be cool if...” and let your imagination go and see where it takes you.
How you can use this knowledge:
Make a plan
Create your very own goal plan and make it visual.
Feel good about your achievements
Achieve your goals (big or small) and feel great about all the hard work you put in.
Get what you want
Stick with it and walk away with your ultimate goal in hand – there is no better reward.
Make the right choices
Be in charge of your life and get rid of things that stop you or distract you from what you want.
In the box below, write everything about your goal that you can think of.
Write it as though it is happening to you right now. What is your goal? How does it make you feel? Who is around you? Where are you? What can you hear, see, or touch? Write absolutely everything, the more precise, the better. If you’re struggling to see things clearly, try using ‘wouldn’t it be cool if…’ and see what comes from that.
Example: I am surrounded by family and friends, without a care in the world, money is in abundance, I am sitting on a beach sipping cocktails enjoying life. I am happy with myself. I have a house, a job, a family I love, and a car but what’s most important to me is the amount of love I am surrounded by. I see the people I love regularly. I am having a lot of fun. Laughing a lot, etc.
