…..Day Dreaming?!

January 8, 2009 at 8:43 am 1 comment

Have you ever been told to stop day dreaming and get back to work? I know i have and i have found that this is because the job i’ve been working in has brought me no real satisfaction or pleasure. Most often i find myself day dreaming about remote tropical destinations, where time is of no real consequence, i have a hot tanned barely clad model by my side and where the only thing to do is relax on the beach or go swimming in the crystal blue ocean. LOL… Well that’s me anyway, what about you?

What is your ultimate dream? Maybe it is to own a big mansion or the ultimate sports car? Drop me a line I would really love to know?

Well anyway none of that is gonna happen unless I can find a way to motivate myself. Trust me if anyone would know about not being motivated it’s me, i suffer from ADHD (Attention Deficite Hyper-Active Disorder). I always have a million projects or ideas that i start but never finish. But not any more, over the years i have found that the best and most simple way to find motivation for me has been to use a “To Do List.” Basically it comes down to goals.

I find when I’m setting my goals I need to think BIG, but just as impoprtantly small. Ultimatley I want to reach my BIG goal (My Dream!!!), but in order to do this I need to break this BIG goal down into smaller goals or steps.  Once I have a list of goals (big and small), I set myself a realistic time frame to achieve my goals. Working with this time frame now provides me with an overall view of what I need to do to achieve my dream.

I know looking at it, it seems very overwhelming but that is where my to-do list comes in. Everyday I set myself something to do which will help me take a step closer to achieving my dream and keep lists of each step that i take, marking off my main goals as I achieve them. Now the most important thing I find i need to remember in all of this is, that no matter how far I come even if I don’t reach my goal by the time I would have liked to, I am now that much closer to achieving it. How exciting my dreams and yours can be within reach!!!

    1 thing I would strongly advise if you want this to be a long business… You need to host your own blog rather than just having it on wordpress.com
