We all have goals; things we aspire to do and/or be. We want to lose 10 pounds, we want to make $100,00 per year, or, we want to go to Hawaii.

Do you see your goals as attainable?

Do you do what you need to do to achieve them?

Are you being the creator of your destiny or the victim of your mind’s beliefs!

I believe to achieve your outer GOALS you must have the following inner GOALS.

1. (G) Gratitude. To have Gratitude for everything from the breath you inhale, the shoes on your feet, to the money in your bank account and the friends in your circle. Gratitude, Grounded in God, Gladness of heart, expecting the Good from all people, places, and things, and to be Genuine are some aspects of having an abundance of Gratitude.
2. (O) Optimism. To be optimistic 99% of the time, to have an open heart and mind, and to look for opportunities in the expected and the unexpected. Successful people only look forward to their futures—never back. Once you Observe the Ocean of possibilities in the Order of your life, you will only have an Optimistic Outlook and Outcome.
3. (A) Action. To have Action is to have life. There’s a Japanese proverb which says, “Vision without Action is a daydream, Action without vision is a nightmare.” Action is Always stepping forward no matter how you feel. Action is doing the thing you don’t want to do before you do the thing you want to do. Action is Accountability, Acknowledgement, Attitude, Alignment, Attention, Acceptance, Adherence, Adjustment, Alliance, Application, Aspiration, and the willingness to be Awesome. Get out of your head, get out of your way, and take Action today.
4.  (L) Love. Love Life. Look for the good. Leave the old beliefs and stuff that is keeping you from moving forward behind. Laugh, Learn, Let go, Listen, Live, Luxuriate, Lap up the sun, never be Late, take Leisure, be Liable, smell the Lilies, be first in Line for everything, and Let Loose once in a while. Love is unconditional, and Love will set you free.
5. (S) Sing. Singing will Set all concerns aside. Singing brings mental and physical health to you and others. Singing Satisfies the heart and the Soul. Serve with Song, Spread the joy, Sparkle, Sponge up the Sunshine, Scrape off the old and Splash on the new. Singing Sensationalizes the Spirit and Sets Songs in flight. To be Sad means there is not a Song in your heart or a Smile on your lips. Singing allows you to not take life so Seriously and to See your vision more clearly.

So, look at your GOALS.

Do you have Gratitude?

Are you Optimistic?

Do you take Action in all areas of your life?

Do you Love yourself, others, and all things?

And, is your heart full of Song?

In order to achieve your outward goals, you must change your inward GOALS. I challenge you to take the GOALS test and change the way you see and change the way you live.
