Knowing where you are headed will assist you in getting there. If you are not sure where you will be this time next year chances are you will get there, wherever there is. Leaving your future up to chance isn't the best life planning you could do. Having a clear idea and a plan for where you want to be in a year will assist you in getting there. If you can imagine it you can plan it. The first step in getting to where you want to go is to know where that is. Use your imagination and creativity to create a vision for the future. Once you have a clear vision of where it is you want to be the next step is to create a plan. For example, if your vision is to be living in a new home by this time next year the first step is to get a clear picture of what your new home would look like. See it in your mind's eye with as much detail as you can muster. To help you see the vision as real, find a picture of the home you want (or as close as you can get) and put it on your Prosperity Board (Vision Board) so that you can see your new home often. Once you have a clear vision of what you want the next step is to create a plan. Write out all the steps you will need to take to obtain your new home. There will be many steps that need to be taken in order to make your plan happen. Once you have the plan the next crucial step is to take action. Break your plan down into daily action and take at least one step towards your goal each day.
If you create a vision, design a plan, and work your plan, you will be where you want to be or at least very close by this time next year. Don't get too worried if you miss your goal date by a few days, weeks or even months. A jet pilot is off course 90% of the time, but reaches the destination by constant course correction. Keep a strong focus on your goal and when you find yourself getting off course get back on as soon as possible. Also, when making decisions that will affect your goal, it is good to ask, "Will this decision move me closer or further away from my goal?"
Now is the best time to create your future. You do that by deciding what it is you want, creating a plan to get it, and then taking the daily action necessary for obtaining your goal. So, go ahead. Start creating your future today!
