To Focus Forward - Set the Goals in Place

When making the quality decision to Focus Forward the next step is to set the goals in place, to plan out the up and coming week as you begin this exciting journey. The process of change requires a different view and different experience. Setting goals is the key to making the change in the right direction.

In writing your goals, there is a simple format to follow:
  1. Set an Objective - Realistic and Possible
  2. Write out the Challenges that you may face in this new excursion in setting in motion the first step to walk. I call them challenges because any challenge can be overcome, using the term problems can set a series of things in motion that may not go the same way. Consider, that any experience in change will not be easy. Take an honest look at yourself and figure out some of the challenges you may face. Write Them Out right below the Objectives.
  3. Next write out the necessary Action Steps to overcome the challenges you will face in this exploration of change. In doing this you have steps to take to get what needs to be done finished and progress from there. When you write them you will overcome then.
  4. Finally, and this is usually the most fun, write out a Reward for fulfilling your goals through understanding the challenges, and executing the Action Steps to counter each challenge.
  5. To Improve this simple process, Each night Analyze what you got done that day, how you overcame some of these challenges. A clear analysis of where you are each night will improve the Clarity of the challenges you still need to overcome.

Five simple steps to begin your life changing goals, to begin to live life fully as each goal is attended to and overcome. It is not to say that it will work out every time you write out the goals only that through this simple process you became considerably more Efficient in making changes, establishing new habits that will be that magic carpet to a better future. To focus forward is not to forget about today, instead it is to take each day as a new opportunity for change, to reside in the present while taking the steps to a better future.

More Coming Soon ... Thanks for Reading .... And life is meant to be lived not just left to pass you by.

There is also an example of my own goal plan for this week ahead that cane be found: blog.hok-international.net which serves as a simple example of the endless possibilities.

Keep Riding - Through The Ups And The Downs

Life can be a challenge sometimes, you live you learn and you grow. Through all this you only improve, the wonder of the glass, is it does not need to be half empty, we each have a choice to interpret it as you will.

To my friend UnsafeAlpine on bikeforums.net your health is important, and though it may be frustrating sometimes it is best to remember that even this you shall overcome. You'll be back on the bike quite soon I would imagine. And if it gets so bad couldn't hurt to explore recumbents for the increased comfort of it.

Just as each person deals with lifes on their own terms, to realize that possibilities are endless in a life that is lived fully, aware of the half full glass through the highs and lows. Recovery though sometimes difficult can only improve and so I finish, more to come at a later time.

The Choice in Life - To Ride and to exist - What choose will you make?

As I was looking for possible options to prove that beyond, the videos that are apparent in the sense, they offer a view of a cyclist who commutes who makes it a point to act as a car because we each are exactly that. I was so fortunate to find this video:


Quite remarkable the song and the fact that he was acting just as a vehicle should act.

The Choice In Life - Focus Forward Continues




Another day comes and Goes, More money more time. The question where does the focus forward project reside today. In the same place it always has ... As it is a choice in living and life ... that is made to be a quality decision. To enjoy your life fully ... to exist to the fullest of your potential.


To Grow and grow in your own way. Perhaps it is confusing as I have heard from some ... what this really is ... It is doing something different with your life. Taking risks, growing through them and becoming better because of it.


It is pushing the limit to bypass it and push again .... life fully lived ... so the day comes when you pass, and eventually we all will you will leave an amazing legacy in your wake whereby the generations to come will follow.


To truly make a difference in your life is a choice you must make. So I would suggest, do it and don't look back, the future is to exciting for that.

Often times I ponder what is reality?

what choice to what conclusion, where do I go from here? I know I should sleep, the hour is late and before I know it here come the day to work the story goest to wast the day working for someone else making them money and establishing your place in the rat race, the endless cycle that only put you back in the same place still struggling to stay afloat in this reality. To merely exist and to offer such a valuable commodity as your time while life passes you by and befoer you know you are along in your years and have not done anything. That is not where I watn to be so I need to change in the right direction to take back the control of my life and steer my being in the direction which has long been on my mind, to fulfill the many goals I choose, not that someone chooses for me. It is a difficult transition, though there comes a point in life where I realise my absolute goals in this life.

The Steps to get there



04:18 12/13/2007
As I looked at my situation as it stands now I realized in my life I will start a project, the focus forward project, which will be all about pushing the limits knowing I can and that I have quite successfully done so, not all that long ago. The objectives of this project are in the name. FOCUS FORWARD!

Stretch for the possibilities!

Grow Now!

Beyond just writing, consider this a complete rebuild in exercise, in writing, excel stretch yourself. Step it up, to move out of the comfort zone and grow as you stretch. The time is now to grow and to move forward in life and living, make your life better and enjoy a life lived fully.


Start a workout program, that is done on a daily basis and week by week push a little harder, work just a bit more as each week passes. In so doing your life becomes better and better and your muscles tuned to stretch. Making you all the stronger in your own FOCUS-FWD program.

Step It Up

StepItUp

Go beyond where other have as I often did with jobs previous to today. I have been there before it is simply a matter to get there again in all things. Higher standards, always above, make the amazing effort and get there by whatever means. Remember the victories and use as example why you can and continue to do time and time again. Use the determination, focus, and follow through every day and each hour.




Remember each victory and follow the same mindset through every you do on a daily basis. Beyond expectation, give it your best plus some every day and every hour, moment by moment. Live this life to the fullest and give it your best.





Forward Focus 0708 - Make it the best you can!
