10 strategies for success

Research shows that there are ten basic strategies that people consider most effective in dealing with the obstacles or challenges that come their way.

1. Set Goals. Make them explicit, something that can be achieved in the near future, challenging and attainable.
2. Write the goals down.
3. Make each goal build on the past. You should be able to see a progression.
4. Offer yourself a small reward. Pat yourself on the back whenever you score yourself a victory on the way toward your goal.
5. Social support. Surround yourself with people who believe in you and support your goals.
6. Orchestrate the environment. Make sure you have all the required equipment and have arranged your schedule so you are able to perform the necessary tasks. This might also include observing others whose achievements inspire you.
7. Start with a non-competitive situation. Challenge yourself first. After you have met your personal goal, you can pit yourself against others, if you desire.
8. Monitor your progress. Periodically check to see if you are moving in the right direction, closer to your goal.
9. Adjust your approach. If, after monitoring your progress, you find that you have veered away from your goal, change your course. Numbers 8 and 9 may have to be repeated several times before you achieve your ultimate goal.
10. Make these steps a habit. Then each time you have a new goal, you will automatically be able to repeat these ten steps.
