7 Steps To Achievable Goals

How many times have you heard that being successful is all down to setting goals? It may come as no surprise to you to learn there is a lot more to success than just setting your goals.

Most of us, at some time, have been told that an essential part, if not the major part, of being successful is setting goals. If that were true many more of us would be successful millionaires, actors, parents...etc. In this article I show you why many people fail to achieve their goals and how to be successful whatever you want or need.


1) What is a goal?

A goal is a target achievable in measurable attainable steps. It is more than just a desire or a need and has an existence of its own. A desire or a wish is less tangible and often just fleeting. Who doesn't desire or wish to win the lottery with all its millions in prize money. Very few would not but, despite the widespread desire, it is not a goal. A goal is a desire, wish or need achievable by actions you can take. It is more than a mere wish or desire.

2) How to set a goal?

Setting a goal is a process which starts with an achievable wish, need or desire. First you must decide on the following

What do you want?
Where do you want to be?
Your status, career or qualifications?

A goal can relate to any desire, wish or need achievable by actions you can take.

You then break down the goal into small individual steps or actions. Achievable goals are goals where you can influence their realization and measure your progress towards them. Achieving long term life changing goals is a process of achieving, step by step, short and medium term actions. 

3) What actions are required?

Goals require action on your part. You first need to decide what action is required to achieve the goal. Your first action is always to always write your goals down. Putting pen to paper, and this is one time when a real pen and paper are required, gives your goals an existence of their own. 

Writing a plan is an essential step in achieving your goals - without it you will, over time, amend the long term goal to fit your reality. You will eventually reduce the goal to a wish, and wishes only come true by chance.

4) Analyse the results

You then need to analyse, and work out in detail, how you are going to accomplish each individual goal. This means writing a detailed plan of what tangible actions are required to achieve each individual goal. 

These actions then become smaller shorter term goals leading to major longer term goals.

5) What steps do I need to take today?

Every day ask yourself "What steps do I need to take today?". By now it should be all planned in advance so check your plan and make sure you take each step every day. If you discover additional steps are needed add them to the plan.

6) Review your achievements every week and month

Every week review your progress for the week. Check what you've done and what you may have missed. Adjust your plan for the next week or month. 

Your plan should always take into account what you will do today, tomorrow, this week, next week before the end of the month, in the next 3 months, 6 months...? Always write down your results.

7) What if things go wrong?

If goals were easy to achieve everyone would be successful millionaires. Goals are difficult because they move you outside your comfort zone to do things differently. To be successful you have to face your own fear of failure and take risks. There will be setbacks, expect them, they are part of the process.

If you are not prepared to take action towards your goals then you are wasting your time. True success comes from the daily actions we all take. Using goals ensures that all the actions you take are moving you in the direction you wish to go. Daily or weekly reviews keep you on track and applying these simple tips will ensure you achieve your goals

DONT LET STRESS CAUSE DEPRESSION

Traumatic events that make our lives stressful such as the death of a loved one, a failed relationship or maybe the loss of a job can lead to depression. In rare cases, even positive stress can lead to the development of clinical depression such as a move, getting married or even a new job.

There are times when we all must struggle with very painful situations in our lives. The level of stress that might cause depression really does vary for each individual. Some people can handle an enormous amount of stress and there are others that sink into depression at the first sign of trouble.

The best way to prevent stress from developing into depression is to take care of it before it gets out of control. Stress is everywhere and it is probably not practical to actually reduce the stressful situations that are causing the problem, But it is possible to control how you deal with the stressful situations.

A relaxation regimen is an excellent way to improve your reaction to tough situations. Spending just a little time every day engaging in deep relaxation, or even a few times a week is all you need. You might try Meditation, Yoga or breathing exercises. Walking is an excellent way to relieve tension. Any physical activity will help you relax including sex.
Herbal supplements can also help you to relax and calm your spirit. Native Remedies has several products formulated just for the stress of daily living that are safe and work wonderfully.

Make time for yourself. In the long run you will actually be saving time because you are more productive when you feel better. We all know how it feels to be overloaded, your productivity levels drop and you can't think straight. So find the time to relax when you can, you will have more patience to deal with the ups and downs of life.

FACTORS THAT AFFECT FOREX TRADING

There are several external factors that affect Forex currency trading. These factors include trade reports, GDP, unemployment, international trade, manufacturing etc. The growth or decline in these factors affects a country's currency value.
Foreign exchange is a continuous global market, providing a 24-hour market access to its players. Since it is open only 5 days a week, so weekend is the closing period. Although foreign exchange is the most liquid of all markets, the fact that it is an international market and trading 24-hours a day, the time of day can have a direct impact on the liquidity available for trading a particular currency.
The major centers and time zones are that of Sydney, Tokyo, London, and New York. Therefore, forex alerts must consider which players are in the market, since in the modern interconnected financial world, events that occur at any hour, in any part of the globe, can affect some or all parts of the investment community.
In forex trading, you are not ignorant like one remains in stock for a considerable period of time about the news affecting the liquidity of a stock. In stock market, you come to know about inside trading, revision in earnings only after the market has reacted upon it.
But in forex currency trading, this is not the case. Here you get various forex signals. Significant information affecting a particular currency becomes known to everyone in the trade instantaneously. There isn't anything as insider trading in a forex market.
There are many online forex trading startegy sites. They all maintain a global economic calendar. This calendar indicates the major forthcoming economic, financial and business related events all over the world and which can have important bearing on foreign exchange market. What you have to do is to keep a track of all important events and news.

Certainly, it will not be an easy task to watch constantly all the factors affecting foreign exchange trading market. They change in importance over time and condition. But the information is available to anyone and for use to one's benefit. A currency trader has got a chance to react immediately to any new information.

Unlike stock market, another important advantage forex trading offers is that you can do foreign currency trading almost from anywhere from the world. There are so many online forex trading signal platforms available to get instant information and to act within time.

Most important GDP figures that affect forex trading are of USA, Japan, Canada, Australia and Britain. China is also expected to be a major force in online paper trading in near future.
Central banks play a significant role in the forex market because they have the responsibility of changing the country's "base" interest rate. A central bank has to maintain growth in the economy in accordance with inflation, so it creates a good balance in interest rates. The bank's decisions on whether to raise, cut, or hold the interest rate fuels speculation in the forex market, where the value of a currency, or group of currencies, changes in real time. Natural disasters, terrorist attacks, and militarily actions in a sensitive region can have a significant impact on the forex market as they create a disturbance in the world.

MOTIVATION IS THE FIRST STEP TO SUCCESS

You will undoubtedly have dreams. Whether you dream of having the perfect house with the perfect car, or you dream of settling down to have a family, even if you dream of retiring by the time you're 40, the one key to success is doing something about it. It may sound obvious but if you dream of retiring before you reach 40 and yet you aimlessly skip from job to job with no hope of progressing a career, it is very unlikely you will achieve your goal.

Set goals and ambitions and write them down on a piece of paper. Make sure that you are always striving to reach those goals. Sometimes it can be difficult to get the motivation you require in order to succeed at your goals but you can use the goals themselves as the motivation you require. Keep your piece of paper on you and if you are beginning to feel downbeat or skeptical about your goals then look at your piece of paper and remember why you are pushing yourself.

Structuring your life in this way, may seem like it loses its spontaneity but that doesn't have to be the case. Find a career you like, set up a business, and have fun doing it but always remember that if a good opportunity crops up you should take it with both hands. It is worse not to try something and not know whether it would have been successful than it is to never try anything.

Presuming you have set reasonable goals you should always be able to see a way to fulfill them. If you set goals that are too difficult you will find it incredibly difficult if not completely impossible to meet your goals. You should try not to alter them if possible, however, we don't know what's around the corner so we can't always plan for it. Don't see this as a failure but take the opportunity to reassess your goals and keep going.

PENGAJARAN DAN IKTIBAR...
TSUNAMI MELANDA KEMBALI....

 



TOKYO: Gempa paling kuat melanda Jepun semalam membentuk tsunami setinggi 10 meter dan menghanyutkan rumah serta menolak kapal ke darat.Bencana terburuk dalam tempoh 300 tahun di Jepun itu turut mencetuskan kebakaran, termasuk di sebuah loji nuklear.Sehingga malam tadi, sekurang-kurangnya 300 orang disenaraikan sebagai maut atau hilang akibat gempa bumi sekuat 8.9 magnitud itu.Pakar seismologi Amerika Syarikat (AS) dan Jepun berkata, kejadian semalam adalah gegaran kelima paling dahsyat di seluruh dunia sejak 1900 atau yang ketujuh dalam sejarah.Laporan menyatakan, ombak besar tercipta di Lautan Pasifik menghanyutkan sebuah kapal Jepun membawa 100 orang.
Lebih 300 rumah di bandar Ofunato turut musnah sama sekali.

Ombak besar juga memusnahkan apa saja yang ada di laluannya, termasuk kapal kontena, kenderaan dan ladang.

Kerajaan berkata, gempa yang dapat dirasakan sehingga ke Beijing itu menyebabkan kerosakan besar-besaran.

Di Sendai, imej televisyen menunjukkan ombak berlumpur bergerak ke darat pada kelajuan tinggi dan memusnahkan kawasan kediaman berhampiran Sungai Natori.

Pegawai kerajaan tempatan di Miyagi, Ken Hoshi berkata, dia tidak pernah melihat bencana seburuk itu.

Di Tokyo, sejumlah kecederaan dilaporkan apabila bumbung bangunan dewan runtuh ketika majlis penganugerahan ijazah berlangsung.

Di ibu negara Jepun itu juga, asap dilihat berkepul-kepul di sekurang-kurangnya 10 lokasi ketika penduduknya mengalami gangguan elektrik.

Pusat Amaran Tsunami Pasifik mengeluarkan amaran tsunami menyeluruh sehingga ke Amerika Selatan, New Zealand dan Hawaii, menyebabkan pihak berkuasa mengarahkan orang ramai menjauhi pantai.

Pertubuhan Palang Merah pula mengingatkan, tsunami di antara empat dan 10 meter boleh menenggelamkan sebahagian daripada pulau yang ada di laluan ombak itu.

Sementara itu, kerajaan berkata, tiada sebarang kebocoran radiasi dikesan di loji nuklear di Onagawa walaupun ia terbakar.

Gempa pertama berlaku hanya kurang dari 400 meter ke timur laut Tokyo, diikuti lebih 40 gegaran susulan.

Satu daripadanya sekuat 7.1 magnitud.

Seorang pegawai kerajaan tempatan di Kurihara, Miyagi, berkata gegaran itu sangat kuat sehingga pekerja di situ terpaksa berpaut untuk mengelak daripada jatuh.

“Kami tak boleh keluar dari bangunan dengan segera kerana gegaran itu berterusan,” katanya.

Perdana Menteri, Naoto Kan, mengadakan mesyuarat tergempar sejurus selepas bencana itu berlaku dan kerajaan menghantar kapal tentera ke Miyagi untuk memberikan bantuan.

Gempa bumi itu berlaku pada jam 2.46 petang (1.46 petang waktu Malaysia) selama dua minit.

Bencana itu turut menyebabkan indeks pasaran saham Nikkei merudum, manakala nilai mata wang yen berbanding dolar AS terjejas teruk. - AFP

JANGAN TELAN PANADOL

PERINGATAN......

SEBUAH KISAH BENAR....

Suami saya bekerja sebagai Jurutera IT di sebuah hospital, di mana pihak hospital sedang menyiapkan pengkalan data untuk pesakitnya. Dia mengenali rapat doktor tersebut. Doktor memberitahu suami saya, apabila mengalami sakit kepala, mereka sendiri tidak sanggup mengambil Panadol atau Paracetamol. . Sebaliknya, mereka akan mencari ubatan herba Cina atau mencari altenatif lain.


Ini kerana Panadol adalah bertoksik kepada tubuh kita. Ia merosakkan organ hati. Menurut doktor tersebut, Panadol akan tinggal di dalam tubuh selama sekurang-kurangnya 5 tahun. Menurutnya lagi, pernah berlaku seorang pramugari menelan terlalu banyak Panadol semasa kedatangan haid kerana tugasnya perlu berdiri sepanjang masa penerbangan. Dia kini baru berumur 30-an tetapi sudah perlu menjalani rawatan buah pinggang (dialisis) setiap bulan.

Seperti kata doktor tersebut, sakit kepala disebabkan ketidak-seimbangan elektron/ion di dalam sel otak.

Sebagai rawatan alternatif, beliau mencadangkan membeli sebotol atau 2 botol minuman isotonik, campurkan dengan air minuman pada kadar 1:1 atau 1:2. Mudahnya, secawan isotonik dengan 2 cawan air minuman.

Saya dan suami pernah mencuba kaedah ini dan mendapati ia berkesan. Kaedah lain ialah merendam kaki ke dalam besin yang mengandungi air suam. Ia akan memberi tekanan darah menurun dari kepala anda.

Panadol adalah sejenis Painkiller? 
semakin banyak anda mengambilnya, semakin lama semakin kurang kesannya kepada anda.. Bererti anda perlukan dos yang lebih lagi apabila ia kurang berkesan.

Kita semua akan jatuh sakit apabila usia kita semakin meningkat. Untuk wanita, mereka akan melalui pengalaman melahirkan zuriat. Bayangkan mereka akan diberi dos yang kuat apabila terpaksa melalui proses beranak melalui pembedahan. Jika anda terlalu banyak mengambil Panadol atau Paracetamol sepanjang hidup anda, seperti mereka yang ada migrain, ia akan memberi kesan sifar terhadap kesakitan yang anda alami dan anda memerlukan ubat yang lebih kuat lagi untuk mengurangkan rasa sakit. Adakah anda sanggup diberi dadah yang kuat seperti morfin?
Hargailah kehidupan anda. Fikir sebelum mudah memasukkan ubat yang Biasa?ini ke dalam mulut anda.

p/s: serik la aku xnk telan benda ni lagi..apa komen korang.??
