Achieving goals in a good mood

Do you also wonder how you can fulfill your wishes and achieve your goals to lead a more satisfying life? In my book "Achieving Goals. From Vision to Reality" published by Haufe Verlag, I take you on a journey to your very personal goal. I present selected coaching tools and have developed seven so-called Good-Mood Loops, with which you can implement your goals with joy and the necessary perseverance. Learn to successfully use these coaching techniques for yourself, following the motto: Coach yourself, because otherwise, no one will! One very important technique I want to share with you right away: It comes from mental coaching, and I have modified it slightly so that you can reach your goal faster. Imagine in the evening, when you are lying in bed, just before falling asleep, how you will achieve your goals. Visualize it clearly, preferably like a movie. Mentally immerse yourself in this state. What do you notice? What do you perceive? Perhaps you smell, hear, or taste something? Use this magical power of visualization. And now for your personal acceleration booster, which you can easily install in your life: Gratitude. Gratitude has an immense leverage effect on our ability to achieve our goals. When you are grateful to others, you are in a very positive and respectful mood towards them. When you are grateful for your own small successes, you adopt a joyful and respectful attitude towards yourself. Be grateful for little things that have gone well today. Be grateful, for example, that your coffee tasted good today, or that your meeting went well, or that you found a parking spot. It's not about big things. Small things are completely sufficient. Recently, I received an email from a client of mine who applied this technique: "Mrs. Nickel, imagine, I made it and am now a team leader. Thank you for the great techniques, they helped me a lot. I particularly liked the visualization combined with the gratitude method, and that's why I call it "The Good-Night Prayer for Starters"! Use your personal "Good-Night Prayer for Starting" every evening, and you will see, it works wonders!
