LISTEN TO THE CAT
Nov 06, 2017
In Lewis Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland' there is a moment when Alice meets the Cheshire Cat for the first time:
"Would you tell me please" says Alice, "Which way I ought to go from here?"
"Well that depends a good deal on where you want to get to" said the cat.
"Oh I don't much care where" said Alice.
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go" said the cat.
This cat knows what it's talking about - If you don't know where you are going how can you decide how to get there.
There are three key stages to achieving any goal - firstly, where EXACTLY are you going. If you are in the car and just driving around hoping to get somewhere nice it is only through luck that you will get there. However even if you do know where you are going it still has to be specific - heading up north is still leaving far too many alternatives - you have to be focused - It's only when you know you are going to 'Leeds' say, that you have any chance of getting there.
So the journey starts with knowing exactly what 'Fantastic' means to you - be specific, what would a fantastic relationship be like, how would you be operating if you were consistently fantastic in your job? Start designing your Fantastic Future NOW!
Tomorrow I will talk about how to dump any fear of failure you may have, allowing you to set goals to fly!!
The other 2 stages are knowing where you are starting from and then working out how to get there - I will be talking about these on future days. Have Fun!
