Most of us have some thing, or lifestyle, that we want. We may say that's what we want, we may even write it down, but how do you achieve goals without knowing what they look like? How many of us have vision?<br /> <br /> "We all know what a goal is, but vision is a topic of confusion for many," the founder of Success University, Matt Morris, recently said. "Your vision is how you see yourself. You can set goals all day long, but if you cannot truly see yourself achieving them, your goals will never be realized. To accomplish a goal, you must truly expect to achieve it."<br /> <br /> So many of us set New Year resolutions and then find that by the end of the year they have not been achieved, or even forgotten. This is because goals without vision lack power. <br /> <br /> Do not underestimate this. In order to achieve something in life, or have the things you want, your subconscious mind needs motivation. Vision gives it something to latch on to, so that it is open to opportunities and motivated to create ideas. After all, unless we know where we are heading, how can we possibly get there?<br /> <br /> The highly successful Matt Morris grew up in a life of poverty and low expectations. In his early life he only focused on how broke he was; his subconscious mind was dominated by his circumstances.<br /> <br /> He says: "I had no idea that my vision, which is trained by my subconscious mind, was overriding my efforts to succeed."<br /> <br /> It's true. What we focus on is what we create. If we focus on poverty and failure they will continue to show up. However, we can make significant changes by changing our focus. <br /> <br /> How do we do this? First of all, you need to see your goals in pictures and imagine that they are happening right now. Every day, impress these visions upon your subconscious mind as clearly as you can. Focus on how your life is going to be when you have reached your goals. Using the resources of online organisations can help with this. <br /> <br /> As your subconscious mind begins to transform its vision, you will now begin working towards your goals with confidence, belief and inspiration. These, in turn, will motivate you towards taking action or responding to opportunities that will bring you ever closer to achieving your goals.<br /> <br /> At times, it will feel difficult. It can be easy to slip back into a negative focus. This is because the subconscious level of the mind has three main influences; other people, your experiences and how YOU think about yourself.<br /> <br /> To help you change your vision and subsequently your actual experience, here is how you can deal with those three influences.<br /> <br /> 1. Try not to socialise with people who put you down. Seek out people who are supportive and who can be positive mentors. If this is difficult, find programs where you can be trained by leaders like Matt Morris. <br /> <br /> 2. Do not be a victim of your past. Whatever has happened in your life, choose to see it as a learning experience which moves you forward instead of a failure or weakness. Guilt and anger are self-defeating. <br /> <br /> 3. Learn positive thinking. If you have a habit of thinking about yourself in a negative way, start practising self-affirming, positive thoughts. <br /> <br /> The more you practise this, the more your vision will lead you through obstacles or false leads, and instead of being stopped by them as in the past, you will now be able to move forward with confidence. The more you see yourself as a powerful, strong and talented human being, the more you will re-inforce the reality of this. <br /> <br /> Do not allow mistakes to affect your vision; instead allow them to contribute to its achievement. Think of "mistakes" as lessons that warn you when you are going off course. Learn from them, so you are constantly re-aligning yourself to your goal. <br /> <br /> Samuel Smiles, the 19th century writer and advocate of "self help" wrote:<br /> <br /> "It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept, study, advice, and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done."<br /> <br /> and: <br /> <br /> "We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery."<br /> <br /> When Matt Morris discovered that having a "vision" was the key to achieving goals, he finally broke free from his life of poverty and founded Success University, which became the most popular personal development website on the internet in its first year of business.<br /> <br /> If a man like Matt Morris can succeed with the background he had, then anyone can achieve their dreams. All that's needed is a powerful vision for your subconscious to feed upon, and will keep you motivated and moving forward. Achieving your goals then becomes a reality instead of just a dream.</p> <br /><br /><b>Author Resource:-></b> Ros Bott is a writer and life coach and runs her own home business. <br > <br > Find out about <a href=http://rbott1.successuniversity.com>Success University here</a><br > <br > Find out about <a href=http://www.rosbott.com>career coaching here</a><br > <br > For online business opportunities, go to <a href=http://www.wealth-city.com>Financial Freedom Online</a><br /><br /><b>Article From</b> <a href='http://www.articleonlinedirectory.com/'>Article Directory Online : Free Online Article Submission - Articleonlinedirectory</a><br /></body></html>
