5 Steps to Accomplishing your Goals

Most of the time I think we can cruise through life without having any major goals. However, for things that are truly worth accomplishing, specifying the ins and outs of a goal is pretty important. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a few simple steps we can follow to describe how we can approach our goals and ensure we accomplish them?

Well, here’s my attempt at defining a nice simple 5 step framework anyone can follow. In this post, I’ll use losing weight, getting fit and going to the gym as one concrete example. However, you can apply it to any goal you have as the steps are equally as relevant.

7 Simple Ways to Stay Focused to What is Most Important to Your Daily Successes

It's very easy to get so caught up in day to day activities that you forget what is most important to your success and well-being. There are some simple tips and activities you can do that will help you stay more in touch which is what is most important to you. It is necessary if you want to stay in focus with your ultimate goals.

Below you will find some easy steps on how to keep the important things in the proper perspective and stay more on target toward your daily to-do lists.

By keeping positive, rather than having a negative outlook you will be better able to manage those daily challenges and move forward in your success toward your long range ultimate goals.

Take Good Care of Yourself



It's much easier to be positive when you are eating well, exercising, and getting enough rest. Learning to let go of anger, resentment and negative feelings will also help us to stay more focused and healthy.

Remind Yourself of the Things You Are Grateful For

Stresses and challenges don't seem quite as bad when you are constantly reminding yourself of the things that are right in life. Taking just 60 seconds a day to stop and appreciate the good things will make a huge difference.

11 ways of staying focused

Each of us have our busy lives and in this world of constant distractions, how can we stay focused on our goals? This article discusses several techniques I have found to work.
For me, there are always several things constantly competing for my time - articles to write, business opportunities to explore, links to follow up, my daily work, personal commitments etc. In my experience whenever I try to work on many things at the same time, none of them actually gets done.
In response, I’ve incorporated the following techniques for staying focused into my work patterns:


Waking Up Early - 15 Tips That Work

t has almost been one year since I posted about how to Wake up Early and Consistently. I thought now might be a good time to post a follow up, including what I have personally found to work.
Let me first start by saying that waking up early has made a huge difference in my life. I used to be the complete opposite - late sleeper and late riser. These days, I wake up at 5:30am everyday.
What I like most about being an early riser is getting that extra quiet time in the mornings to work at a few next actions even before the day officially begins. Lately though, I’ve opted to go to work earlier, so that I can clock in my 8 hours, leave at a reasonable time and still have a few precious moments with my baby daughter before she heads off to bed. Being able to maximise my free time doing things I rather be doing has made all the difference to my quality of life.
Here is a list of things that worked for me:

Business Segment
Energy Infrastructure - Energy

About Us
This role resides in PT. GE Nusantara Turbine Services (PTGENTS), a joint venture between GE and PT. Dirgantara Indonesia. PTGENTS is also one of the 5 Asia Repair Service Center in Energy Services..

Role Summary/Purpose
The purpose of this role to provide leadership to PT GE Nusantara Turbine Services (PTGENTS) - the Bandung, Indonesia Service Center, by demonstrating accountability for functional, business, and broad company objectives. In this role you will integrate and develop processes that meet business needs across the organization, manage complex issues within functional areas of expertise, be involved in long-term planning, and contribute to the overall business strategy.

EXTRA TIPS

  • Prepare your resume in advance.
    Include your name, date of birth (no cheating here), educational background, experience, goals and ambitions. Make sure that your resume highlights your strengths in whatever area you are applying for. Operations Librarians should mention the long hours they spend each night on the Internet; catalogue-wanna-bees should include facts like their passion for Dewey, and spending every vacation cutting up the New York/London/Sydney Times (or their metric equivalents) and filing the clippings by an appropriate subject heading system.
  • Study the library before the interview.
    Make certain that you actually WANT to work in that particular library. Study an appropriate text on body language before you make your reconnaissance visit - and watch the existing employees carefully. Sagging shoulders may indicate an extreme workload; a shuffling gait may indicate long hours; extremely thick glasses may indicate poor lighting conditions. Of course, these things might also indicate you are not in a library at all, you may be in a Home for the Aged. Make sure you can see a lot of books, and read the sign on the front door.
  • Be on time.
    Any previous battle engagements should be postponed until after the interview. Your advice that you were delayed by the Aegean Wars will not be considered favourably. Similarly, your parking problems will not produce any brownie points - they don't really care about the lack of facilities for parking chariots in the municipal carparks. Yeah, sure, they may offer creche facilities, employee benefits, work bonuses, but what about the really important stuff?
  • Dress conservatively.
    Leave all your weapons at home. Library Administrators are generally disinclined to appreciate the finer points of warfare, even in relation to exit control. (And they wonder why people steal library books!!!)
    Whenever possible, comb your hair before the interview has started, and remove any body-parts that were not grown by yourself (eg nose-bones, shrunken heads, etc).
    If you are going to borrow spectacles, ensure that they at least have some glass in them; experienced interviewers are always on the look-out for signs of deception.
  • Give yourself that extra edge!!
    Refrain from biting, punching or otherwise injuring your interviewer, at least until after you've been appointed to the position.
    Similarly, agree with all personal opinions expressed by the interviewer - regardless of how inane they might be. A word of caution here: sometimes the interviewer will try to deliberately provoke an inappropriate response - and also throw in a casual comment that is meant to elicit a rebuttal from you. Also, sometimes library administrators are just dolts.
    If you have trouble deciding what game the interviewer is playing, it may be best to just ignore the advice above re biting, punching, etc. Just ask yourself first: "Do I really want this job?".
