5 guiding criteria for goal achievement through success strategies
Personal success through focusing on priorities
"To tap into our resources and potentials, our thoughts are crucial in order to achieve personal success," explains Karate World Champion and Top 100 Speaker Jörg Gantert to his audience. It is a victory over oneself, as also the title of his book of the same name. When he asks his lecture and seminar participants about their expectations, he usually receives answers such as: "I don't want to give up halfway to my goal anymore," "I don't want to feel so tired and drained anymore," "I don't want to be anxious before a customer meeting."
However, it is not possible to achieve personal goals if we do not focus on them, but on things we do not want. Therefore, thoughts should be directed exclusively towards the goal images that you want to achieve concretely. The more precisely the goal is named, the more efficient personal success can be achieved.
Establish a positive attitude daily towards achieving your goals
There are many people who have set specific goals, but harbor strong doubts and negative thoughts internally about achieving them. Often they engage in destructive self-talk and thus put themselves in a negative mood. However, since our mood determines our behavior, those who think negatively do not enter into action. Achieving a positive thought orientation can be done, for example, by developing an awareness of your daily speech patterns and ensuring that you use only supportive terms.
How to find the right strategy
"Look at the strategies of those who already can do what you want to achieve!" that was the crucial advice from his karate teacher, which positively changed the sporting and later also professional life of Jörg Gantert, and he gladly passes on this advice to his audience.
In this case, Jörg Gantert had expanded his training strategy with the component of Mental Training. Perhaps you are missing only one more component in your current strategy to achieve one of your goals. Analyze and adopt the strategies of the people who have achieved what you desire and learn from their experiences.
Use resistance to your advantage
Ask yourself: What is the difference between people who maximize their abilities and achieve their goals, and those who break down at the smallest obstacles? The answer is: The difference lies solely in how we communicate with ourselves and how we react to external circumstances.
Successful people draw on their mental and physical resources, are aware of their inner strength, and know how to activate it. Allow only powerful questions so that personal success can be achieved:
- How can I feel better as quickly as possible?
- How can I make the best out of this situation?
- What could be the next step towards achieving the goal?
Activate your motivation to take action
Jörg Gantert also admits to his audience that in some situations this is easier said than done, especially when we have to turn away from familiar thought patterns and actions. Often, we feel insecure and indecisive in these moments. Hardly a day goes by without us being confronted with our "comfort zone."
Regardless of what you consider your personal success, you will not be able to avoid one thing: Make a change in your thoughts and actions. Only when you do something different than before do you have the opportunity to achieve new results.
