The Goal of Getting

Daily Success Motivation & Positive Thinking

Goals, goals and more goals. We all should have them but few of us exploit them. To set a goal is to leverage your unlimited potential. With a sliver of intent and a wink of direction you can unlock momentum and success motivation unlike you've ever experienced before. When we think of goals mostly we think of getting something. However, with all of the getting let us understand this...the goal of getting anything is to become something more than you are today.

More Than Are
What am I getting at by that last statement? Well, in order to have more and remain happy you must become more than you are. There are plenty of examples of those who have increased their getting without and increase in peace and happiness. Why? Because there hasn't been an increase in their personal development. To truly sustain increase in your life and to accumulate more with ease you have to become more than you are on the inside.

Don't embrace the getting for getting sake. Establish who you are and who you want to become along with your goal setting and getting. The most powerful goals are goals that will challenge your very ideas of who you and who you can become. The most powerful goals require you to force a change in your identity in order to achieve success. It isn't too difficult to getting a lot of stuff without giving a lot of ourselves in the process. Yet, to best goals of life changing goals. They are goals that change our lives first and which enable use to change the lives of those we care about most.

You are more than you are now and you must recognize that. Don't neglect to feed that deep hunger to become more and not just get more. The getting is so much better when we are thinking and acting bigger than we did yesterday as we work to build bigger tomorrows by living our dreams today!

Your Future Is Now!
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow never really comes. All you really have is Today and Now. I caution you not to make haste because you think the time is late for you. Haste makes waste indeed. There is a lot of pressure these days to do it now, get it now and become it now. Yes, now is the time...but you must act from self-directed purposes and not pressure from popular culture.

Many engage in some form of escapism through music, movies and videos which allows them to avoid the real decisions they need to make about their own lives instead of longing after the glamorous life of others. The message of popular media these days is that to be more you must have more in order to be happy. The reverse is actually true, that is to have more you must be more in order experience happiness. This is the road that requires that work.

To be more you must embrace yourself and your life right now. You must recognize that you are where you are right now because of your own thinking and your own actions up to this point. Recognize that you got you here and it is you that can get you to where you want and need to be. Your future is indeed now when you are ready to be responsible for your own life and establish your mission for getting by requiring yourself to become more than you are today.

The Great Challenge
Your challenge is within and a great challenge it is indeed! You must contend with issues of self before you can contend successfully with the issue of life. You cannot medicate your lack of self-development through vice or virtue. Ultimately you have to come face to face with your true self in order to become great. We all have life experiences that are as unique as our fingerprints. Your path is your own and your contributions will be unlike anyone elses. Believe in yourself and in your unique ability to build and uniquely bigger life than you have up to this point. You are not limited by your past. You are only limited by you ability to think and envision a better future for yourself. Your present resources are not a indicator of what you can acquire.

You see, what you do or how you act determines your success. Your acting is what leads to your getting. But what you think determines your happiness. Your thought life is the seat of your greatness and the key to becoming more than you are today. When you change your thinking you will change your life. Set goals. Aspire to get as much from life as you can. Alway seek to become more than you are along the way and continuously ask yourself..."What is my goal in getting?"

What is your goal of getting?
