Get and easy way to Attain using the Major 8 Rules to Attainment


Here’s a quick and easy thing to do to improve your next 90 days and even your next 12 months:

Take a piece of paper, write out the Major 8 and carry it with you this week and handwrite your thoughts under each heading as to what you’d like to achieve or see different in each area. (Or better yet, open a Word document and type out the Major 8 and handwrite your thoughts below each).

Spend several days or a week on this and then ask yourself a few questions and make some comments to yourself.

What areas do you naturally focus on the most; the least? In which areas do you need more “work”?

Repeat!

Make it a great day!

Attain Any Goal in 90 Days

Part 1
Usually about one time every year we set aside a small bit of time to review past goals and set new ones and then basically forget them. That time of the year everyone knows is usually around December or January. I’m here to tell you that whatever month of the year you are reading this, it is time to set goals.

I’m sure you’ve heard the acronym about setting SMARTBBB goals: specific, measureable, achievable, realistic, time deadline, blah, blah, and blah again. OK, I added the “blah” stuff; not to demean this great acronym, but because for most who have heard of this acronym never uses it so it has lost meaning. If it works for you, go ahead and Google “SMART Goals” and read all of the great information about it. When you are done, return to this page.

Welcome back.
You can attain any "specific" and "concentrated" goal that you want in life following many of the "goal gurus" out there. Here I'll show you how to have "balanced" goals or at least choose a specific goal and attain it in a "balanced" way!
You can attain many goals of the Major 8 in just 90 days using these simple 3 steps. Then repeat! First, let’s look closely at all of the Major 8. Now please “look again” but through the eyes of others and not from our perspective. Then, let’s mark a date on the calendar 90 days out to celebrate the positive results. Finally, be sure to mark weekly “check points” to evaluate progress. Let’s get started.
The Major 8 are the eight things that most people desire, for themselves. If you forget them, just come back to www.attainmentrules.com, they are always at the top of the webpage. Here is the Major 8: Good Health, enjoyment of food, a restful night’s sleep, money, life and a legacy, sexual gratification, wellbeing of your children and those you love, and a feeling of importance.

These eight things are all pretty much for our own personal “gain” with the exception of asking and desiring the wellbeing of those we love (and shouldn’t we “love” everyone). However, when you are completing your 90 day goals in the Major 8, also include things you’d like to see come about for those who are close to you; family and friends. How might your partner, or son or daughter have, do or be with good health, enjoy food, sleep well, have enough money, and more? This will cause you to think “outside” yourself and for others. And, secondly, may have you communicating with others to see what they would like to achieve in each of these Major 8 areas over the next 90 days that you can “partner” on, or just find out his/her desires and visualize good of the Major 8 for them on your own. The main thing I’m impressing is set Major 8 goals for yourself and others.

The next step is simple. Open your calendar, look for the date 90 days out from today and circle it that is your target! Write in what you will do when you accomplish some, most, and all of your goals. The reward should be comparable to the goal achieved.  
The third step is setting a weekly review time to see where you’ve been, see how far you’ve come and how much more you have to go. These are “road signs” so you know that you are continuing in the right direction! I like to do this on a Sunday night or early Monday morning but you should find which works well for you. Maybe every two weeks or once a month works, but be sure to do it!

On day 90, or shortly thereafter, be sure to reward yourself. Then repeat! This time perhaps change it up a bit by emphasizing different areas of the Major 8; for you and for others. Add another person who you want to include into (what I call) your “circle of thought”.

Do this process 4 times a year and you’ll almost have this on “automatic pilot” and it becomes easier and better every time. You’ll see things come about and become aware of things that are happening for your good that have always been happening but you’ll finally see them! You’ll also learn the truth of the phrase: You’re not getting older; you’re getting better!

Make it a great day!

Don't Worry about Tomorrow; Be Strong Today


Right now, as I write, it is the Holiday Season, and being so you'd think everyone would be like the phrase I saw recently, to "smile and bee happy". But people (and  sometimes yours truly) can have their cares and stresses. This will always be; we are on a journey. Every day brings different events which gives opportunity for decision. Anytime and every time this occurs, we may dwell on it too long and we become stressed. Make your decisions quickly and move ahead.

Also, don't let others and things that you can't control (like the weather, at least for now until someone invents something) to stress you. Take an umbrella and take it in stride.

When we are moving ahead, attaining our goals, when we set "tough" but achievable goals, we can sometimes feel the "friction" of stress because we place ourselves in new environments where we've never been and not known. This is fine, stretch yourself. You'll live through it and become better and stronger for it.

This past year I stretched myself like never before and am "feeling" the discomfort of the birthing pains of some great successes for the new year. I know that I will see the fruits of my labor!

Set those goals and achieve your dreams.

"I don't worry about tomorrow. I am strong for today". - Ter Scott

Make it a great day!

Give Thanks in Advance


Perhaps as I write these words it is because we are in what is commonly called “the holiday season” that my mind seems set on giving thanks. I do give thanks every day, but I’m compelled to see evidence of giving thanks all around me and in the books I read, that I must share it with others.

In his book titled: Positive Imaging, Norman Vincent Peale shared something I’d like to pass on to my readers.

Peale states a three word phrase that intrigues me and I will continue to use it personally and in my seminars, workshops and trainings. He calls it the prayerize-visualize-actualize sequence. He is talking about giving thanks in advance of the results one is seeking.

Joseph Haydn created great musical pieces using this technique. Before he would compose any music, he would first “pray and thank God that it was accomplished”. Then he would compose. If it did not come to him, he would repeat the process, and it would!

Before going about your day, why not prayerize-visualize-actualize it into existence as many other people have done, down through history? Then report what happened to you in the comments section below.

Here’s today’s affirmation:

“I prayerize-visualize-actualize only good for myself and others. I especially visualize positive results in _________________ today”.  

10 Step Method to Attain your Goal this week


I always like to offer ways for my readers to “attain” whatever it is in life that they desire. Certainly there are many “systems” and “formulas” out there but remember, things do take time so stay with it. Keep your focus and use action; both in using the formula and also in the doing of what it is you want to attain.

For instance, the metaphor of a garden is a good one. When we plant a seed, you may have some success just letting nature (the creator) supply the sun and rain to make it grow. But when you add the action of removing the weeds, and tilling the soil, and yes, even “talking” to it, you reap a bigger harvest. In the same way, you will be blessed (have some success) financially by simply “planting the seed”, but you’ll reap a bigger harvest financially when you tithe and gift money to others. That lesson is for another time.

Here I want to share a “system” to attain. It’s a 10-step method to use to make decisions, get guidance in your attaining whatever it is you want, and to get confirmation that you are doing the right thing. This is something I’ve adapted from one of my mentors, Harold Hill. (Please note that I’m not insinuating that Mr. Hill shares my opinion or teachings; just that I borrow from his ideas and thoughts. Basically I’m stating that he probably doesn’t know I even exist and that I’m not “speaking for him”). If you’d like to learn from him, I have a list of his books that have inspired me at the right of this article.

His version uses actual quotes from what he calls “the Manufacturer’s Handbook” and is found in his book: The Money Book for King’s Kids (available from the list shown at the right>) on page 146.

Here is my 10 Step Adaptation:

1.    Wrap everything in praise and turn it over to the creator who is in charge of all results. Thank him in advance for the harvest you expect.

2.    Refuse to let “appearances” get you off focus; persist.

3.    Trust that you have made the right decision, and push forward.

4.    Continue being grateful and praise God for the results that are in the process of being realized.

5.    Learn to hear the voice of God, and actually listen! Ask for instructions, listen and be sure to carry them out. Don’t do this and you’ll may not “receive” this or any future attaining of anything.

6.    Don’t ask others about this after you’ve already asked the “man at the top”. There is no need for any other source than the creator. Wait for confirmation.

7.    Stop doubting that God has spoken to you when you get the confirmation. God is real, and real is the first word in “realization”.

8.    When you get the guidance you are seeking, act quickly. ACT!

9.    Ask God to block all wrong paths, open all the right paths to get you to the correct goal.

10. Harold Hill uses this and states that the origin is unknown. I too, cannot rephrase it any better: “Lord, make me as holy as You can make a sinner saved by grace”.

Why not try this 10-Step Attainment/Decision making process this week and share with me (and other readers) your results.

Make it a great day!


Terrific. Energizing. Results!

An affirmation a day keeps the blues away!

We’ve heard it said that an apple a day keeps the doctor away, but here I’m saying that by affirming “good” in your life, you’ll keep the blues, the bills, the stress and “you fill in the blank” away.

Write this affirmation on a slip of paper, preferably a 3 x 5 card and look at it several times during your day. Internalize it. Visualize it. And, realize it!

“The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want”.

Oh, that’s familiar you say. Oh, that’s from the Bible you say. Oh, that is “old stuff” you say. “Bah Hum Bug”, I say! Yes, this is from the Bible which is full of history, mystery; and power! Ask yourself: “Am I in want”? If so, tell your left brain to be quiet and try it!

I just wrote it on a 3 x 5 card myself and will do as I speak. I dare you to do the same. Then, leave your comments as to how your day went.

Relax to Realization


In our next sessions together, I will discuss 8 steps to attainment. It involves first, to simply “relax”. No one can “attain” good results in anything when they are stressed about the things they don’t want. I will first present ways to relax, and “let go”, followed by cleansing, protecting, decreeing, obtaining, concentrating and meditating, creating silence, and finally realizing.

This is all much like calling a friend you know by phone using all the numbers but when you don’t include one or have the numbers in the wrong order, you’ll either reach the wrong person or no one at all.

So return soon as I’ll be back with the first topic of relaxing.

For today, here is your affirmation to get you prepared.

“I pray free of stress, expecting good, using a light and easy touch about this and any situation in my life”.

Make it a great day!
