Setting goals is easy, but essentially very idealistic. Using a template to set your goals just means that your ideas can be clarified in detail, and "realistic" time frames can be set, but even if you plan the next ten years down to the day, how will that make anything happen? How many goals have you written down and forgotten? Why is writing your goals so important?
Depression and procrastination can be such a powerful combination, that even a direction from a satellite guidance system can seem pointless or confusing.
Depression is the most common psycho-emotional problem in the world, and yet a full cure can not be claimed by any of our extremely complicated, expensive psychiatric drugs. In fact, the full cure for depression can only be found in a personal decision to make some lifestyle improvements, followed by a daily program for reminding yourself what you are doing, and why you are doing it. In 9 years of practice as a Hypnotherapist I have seen over 100 cases of depression transformed, using this method. You must make the decision to improve yourself, and you must follow a daily program to stay positive.
Procrastination is usually caused by the feeling of being ill-equipped to handle the task at hand. Not knowing what to do, self doubt, fear, or doubting your process, creates overload in your mind, too many thoughts, anxiety, and indecision. A task that should take a few hours, can take weeks, or just never happen. The opposite of procrastination is feeling confident, knowing what to do, having the skill and equipment to accomplish the task, and finding decisions easy to make and obvious.
The NBSR Goal Programming System consists of the Goal Setting Template, the Five Step Strategy, and the Success Journal - three methods which compliment each other very well. The Goal Setting Template provides the vital blueprint or recipe containing the strategy that you are going to follow, to find yourself in the life that you wish for. This is the template for making your dream into a 10 year plan, with strategic goals for every 3 years. Each year you will have a new 1 year goal, that helps you to break the journey into progressively easier-to-handle sections. The Goal Setting Template is your map, with your rout planned out. The Five Step Strategy then divides your 1 year goal into 5 manageable sections, and is applied to each of your 1 year goals as you progress through your 3 year strategy. The Success Journal is your GPS guidance system. it tells you what to do each day, how fast you are going, brings you back on course if you wonder off, and helps you to eliminate procrastination and depression - literally taking your 10 year goal one day at a time.
