Do you keep setting goals and failing to achieve them? Would you be willing to take some advice? You can accomplish your goals if you try one little trick and back it up with a plan. The little trick is to visualize yourself having achieved the goal. For example, if you want to lose weight, visualize yourself thinner. Create a very concrete mental picture of yourself. How do you look? What are you wearing? What are you doing? Of course, visualization alone is not enough. You need a plan, and it should be in writing. What will you do today to achieve your goal? If you want to lose weight, write down what you will eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. What will you do for exercise, and when will you do it? Write it down. As the psychologist Nathaniel Brandon said, "A goal without an action plan is a daydream.”
