Few Simple ways to achieve what you want

• Narrow your list

Goals are good but if you have too many of them, you will soon see that one particular goal distracting you from working on another. Rather than trying to focus on too many goals, narrow it down to 1-3 crucial goals for any specified period of time. Even on a daily basis, you should have 1-3 goals which you are trying to accomplish. These goals should tie into your medium and long term goals so that each day will see you make an active progress. This assures you're not spreading yourself too thin, and as a result loosing your focus and goal.

Never forget that any big goal worth accomplishing requires a great amount of resources and energy. E.g, time and money. If you try to work on too many goals all at a time, you divide your time, energy and money too tenderly. Each goal gets a little amount of these precious resources but, no goal gets enough to make any consequential process. So, you end up with many goals revolving along but none getting accomplished.

• Have accountability partners

As long as the goal is not to personal in nature, telling people whom you trust about your goal will make you more accountable. You value loved ones and friends and you value the respect that comes with their friendship. When you enlighten them of changes that you wish to make, you want to be seen to honor your word. Ideally, these people will encourage you when barriers arise and celebrate your success with you along the way. This support will help you to stay focused on your goals.

When you have an accountability partner, you're no longer on your own in your journey of life. You're less likely to allow yourself to forfeit focus and become distracted when you have someone who's encouraging you.

• Create either a physical or virtual goal board
  To help you stay focused on your goals, you can establish a visual reminder of why you created a particular goal in the first place. Take a poster board, or electronic platform,bulletin board (e.g pinterest) and fill it with images that help you maintain your focus and enthusiasm. Your brain thinks in terms of images so, if you choose the right pictures, it will serve as both an enjoyable and powerful method to stay focused on your goals.

When you are constantly looking at images of your goals. You are priming your subconscious mind. You are telling it that these goals are crucial to you. Then if anything which could help with that goal is going on around you your subconscious mind is more likely to draw your attention to it; helping you stay focused on your goals. Think of when you change your car and you suddenly start observing that model of car everywhere.

IN CONCLUSION

It takes consistency and hard work to accomplish major goals. The harsh reality is that most people will fail to achieve their goal. These failures will hardly be due to lack of skills or knowledge. Your mind understands images better than words.
