Mindfulness practises for setting & achieving goals

”How amusing, that we all pretend to be normal when we can be wildly ourselves instead.”

Where do you see yourself one year from now? What can you do today, this week, this month that will bring you one step closer to that version of you? Setting daily, weekly and monthly intentions is a great way in order to move closer to that life. Your future is created now.

Visualise, and take inspired action.

Write it down. The more specific you are about your goals, the better. Write them down, try to be as clear and precise as possible. Putting words, goals – the desired future – on paper will take you one step closer to achieving your dreams. Start with something small; write something down that you wish to happen this week, and witness how it blossoms into reality.

Let go of the how. After writing down your goals it’s crucial that you stop obsessing over how everything will happen. You can’t control every situation, or a person in your life. Bear in mind that things usually never work out exactly as planned. Nevertheless, if you stay persistent, and believe in yourself and your dreams, things will eventually fall into place; maybe not the way you hoped for, but instead, the way that is best for you. Remember life works for you, not against you. Do not force an outcome. Let it flow naturally. Everything will come to you at the right time. Be patient.

Do it your way. Allow yourself to be inspired by others, however, do not compare yourself to anyone else’s success. We all have our own unique story; focus on your intentions, your strengths. Be you. What do you want? Follow your heart, your intuition; it always guides you to where you need to be. Everything you need, already resting peacefully within. Trust yourself. The moment you allow your unique self to shine through, that’s the moment when the magic starts to happen.

Relax and let go. Don’t take life too seriously. Don’t take yourself too seriously. It’s OK if you mess things up – its’ part of life. We grow from everything we go through in life. Take a break and chill out every once and a while. Meditate to calm your nerves, and quiet down the mental chatter. While it’s good to have a plan, also keep in mind that sometimes you need to take a step back, breathe, trust and let go, and see what happens.

Allow yourself to be a beginner. Try something new, and watch how your confidence grows. It’s convenient and easy to fall into a rut. Routines become such a natural part of our every day life, that all of a sudden, we stop challenging ourselves. If you never take a step outside that comfort zone of yours, you won’t grow. You have to push yourself to do things that make you nervous, a little bit afraid and uneasy. The reward you will feel and experience afterwards is priceless.
