How do you get what you really want?

The starting point is to first work out what that is. For many people that can be harder than it seems.

Here's a great 4 step technique many of my clients learn to use and have gotten some great results from:

Get a big sheet of paper and get ready to do a complete brain dump.

 

1 - Write down all the things that come to mind that you think you Need to do..

Keep writing until you can't think of anything else. Then change pens and keep writing. Do that until you have really run out of things to write!

 

2 - Write down all the things you Want - either to do, or Have...

Use the same approach of changing pens to open up new ideas until everything is written down.

 

3 - Write down the things that you Already have, or are happening in your life already that you want to Keep...

You know what to do with the pens...

 

With all that down on paper you can look over it and notice the things that may be a common theme. If there are any then that's a sure sign that it's a priority for you.

Looking over the rest of what you've written, pull out the 3 or 4 most important/compelling/influential things.

From there you can start to make a plan of what you'll need to do in order to progress on and achieve those things.

If you do this process and are really honest with yourself you will come away with a sense of clarity of what's most important to you to work on and towards right now.

It's also very liberating to free your mind of carrying all those thoughts around, now you've created the space your brain can go about making a plan for How you can go about achieving the things that are most important.

Now all you have to do is step 4... Do something to move you towards achieving it!
