But without the step by step process of writing down your goals, figuring out a game plan, and exercising discipline, specific goals can be difficult to achieve. Once we map out our goals on paper, it makes our goals tangible and elicits more accountability. In my experience when I set a goal and adhere to the action plan combined with daily discipline, I reach my desired outcome. When I don't implement the 7 steps of success that you describe, I find myself discouraged due to loss of productivity and dissapointed by the result. This is a great lesson that you shared with us! I like most people expect to reach my goals but, realizing it takes specific action steps and focused discipline. This is especially critical to implement when starting something new and unfamiliar. Thanks! Laura Hi Terry,

There's nothing like committing something to paper and looking at it every day when it comes to reinforcement. For me, personally, determining the price of what will cost is huge. I have often, underestimated what it will take to accomplish goals and then I balk when a conflicting engagement pops up that compromises my progress toward a goal. Great tips! keep the good stuff comin. Pat .-= Patrick McIntosh´s last blog ..<a href="http://patrickmcintosh.com/?p=194" rel="nofollow">Success in Your Daily Routine</a> =-. Hey Terry,

I especially like the "writing it down" part ... that really cements it into your subconscious, for some reason. I have somewhat of a "photographic memory" and can later look back and "see" what it was I wrote down on paper. I have used this technique over and over with great success.
