If You Want to Succeed in Life, It’s Time to Get Clear and Answer These Questions

If you don’t know where you are going, you’re lost.

If you know where you are going, but don’t have a clear roadmap of how to get there, you will walk in circles till you will just get tired and lose the motivation to walk around endlessly.

Either way — you are not going to reach your desired destination.

Having a clear plan (or a clear roadmap) is a make-it-or-break-it factor in life.

Clarity starts from within

First and foremost, you have to become clear about who you are.

Sit down and answer — who am I?

Go as deep as you can, describe yourself as you are now.

Then move to an even more important question — who do I want to become?

Think of yourself as if you are the best version of yourself — describe that person.

How do you want to be, interact, and talk?

Any specific core values you want to have?

The more specific you will be with your answers, the clearer you will start to envision the person you want to become.

You now have a clear blueprint of yourself.

Then think about how you will become the person you want to be. What action do you have to take starting today?

Remember that the key here is to go deep within yourself. Be honest. Don’t think of “what others will think”.

Forget about others.

Get clear on what YOU want.

Become clear of what you want

Turn your dreams into goals.

Write out your 1-year and 3-year goals.

Again — be as clear as possible. Be specific with describing your goals.

If you want to get in shape within a year — how you will do it? What first steps do you need to take to start moving toward this goal?

Ask yourself — does this goal challenge me?

Am I specific with this goal?

Positive answers to these questions will increase your success rate.

Remember that goals without a clear plan are just dreams.

The clearer your plan (roadmap) is, the more likely you will achieve your goals. Plus, you can always change the course along the way.

Nothing is set in stone.

It’s proven that most successful people take the time and create their future blueprint.

Don’t wait another day, week, or year.

Become crystal clear with:

• who you want to be (think of your values)
• what you want to do in your life (think of skills)
• what kind of relationships do you want for yourself (think not just what kind of people you want to surround yourself with — think how you want to interact with others?)

Be great!
