Anything is Possible If – How to Achieve the Big Goals
Anything is Possible If How to Achieve the Big Goals
"The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them." -- Denis Watley
One thing is certain, the mindset required to reach a big goal is very different from whatever is needed to reach a smaller one. No one can ever hope to make it to the top of Mount Everest with the same level on thinking that is required to climb the mountain three miles down the road from home.
The scope of the mindset has to be proportional to the size of the goal. Newton's third law of motion that say, "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction" is also applicable to goal achieving. If a goal is pushed hard enough it will materialize. If not, it will simply fall by the wayside.
A big goal requires a proportional amount of motivation, enthusiasm, focus, work and dedication. Those elements can only spring from the desire spawned by the reason to accomplish that specific goal.
In other word, if there is a big enough reason to accomplish something, the energy, the passion and the dedication needed will automatically spring forth and become available. A person sustained by a big enough reason to do anything will find the wherewithal necessary to climb any mountain or slay any dragon.
So, even before the final decision is taken to start on a huge project, some deep thinking and soul-searching should be done on the reason and motivation behind that objective. The reason/motivation behind the project is the motor that will propel it to completion. It is very important to ascertain that this "motor" is powerful enough to sustain the endeavor to completion. If not, a booster must be found or the project abandoned.
In his book, The Art of War, written over two thousand years ago, Sun Tzu said, "Every battle is won or lost before it is ever fought." That axiom is still true today. The fate of any major project is decided in the planning process.
Big goals require big planning. It is at that stage that the ultimate fate of the project is sealed. As a tall building needs a solid foundation, a huge project or objective needs some solid planning.
Solid planning requires experience that the planner may not have. That, in itself, should not be a major obstacle. There is nothing new under the sun. Someone, somewhere has already gone near where anyone would ever want to go. By emulating what has already been done, most of the planning process can be accomplished on a solid and tested basis.
The final element needed to accomplish almost any goal is the ability to work incrementally. That is, to cut any task into chewable bite size. It is said that it is possible to eat a whole elephant so long as it is done one bite at the time.
The same olds true for any major project. Viewed as a whole, it may seem unattainable. Cut down into smaller chunks, it could be said to be a piece of cake.
Confucius said, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." So does a gigantic goal. Almost anything is possible so long as, 1) there is a good enough reason to do it, 2) a solid plan is established, 3) previously trodden paths are followed and, 4) the project is cut down to workable single units.
Great people are not born. They are made. They became great by standing on their achievements. Today's technology has given the tools and opportunities to surpass anything that has ever been done before. It's just there waiting for us to claim our birthrights.
