Garry Mclachlan - 7 Golden Nuggets to Success

Picture
Nugget 1 – Dream
Why do we need a Dream?  For many people, a dream gives them hope.  When we have a dream, we are “hoping” for something.   This hope then becomes fuel for desire, and desire drives us.    However, does desire drive us to achieve our dreams?   No.   In truth, desire eventually brings about discipline that causes us to make the necessary adjustments in our life to fulfill the dream.   

What are some of your dreams?   Have you had an unrealized dream for a long time?   Remember, the amount of discipline that you are willing to apply to your life, not desire, determines your destiny.

Nugget #2 - Destination
A dream gives us a DESTINATION, or someplace to go.   A process or journey is required to reach the dream – our “destination”.   Its during this journey that we are given the opportunity to grow.    When we have unrealized dreams, its not because we have failed.  It’s not because the world is against us, even though it seems that way at times.

It may be simply because we did not learn how to discipline ourselves or accept the need to grow.    No one likes the word “change”.   How many times have we heard someone say, “Don’t try to change me?”  This comes from a natural desire to not be controlled.   However, when we refuse to face some needed change in our lives, we are allowing ourselves to be controlled by our environment.   One reason this happens is because our main focus is on the dream, without the understanding that we might need to focus on changing a few things or habits, that are preventing us from achieving our dreams.

Many people try something several times only to be continually disappointed by the outcome.   This disappointment can actually cause them to give up on realizing their dream, thinking it is unobtainable.    When we realize our dream is a destination and we see the journey as an opportunity to grow, we are able to accept the necessary change that must take place in order for us to reach our destination.

Nugget #3 – Work
We must be willing to WORK, and most people are.   However, many people become frustrated because they don’t feel their work is accomplishing anything.    People have a natural desire to connect with a purpose of some type.

How do we work?   We work either hard or smart.

How often have you heard someone say, “I work smart, not hard?”   We should work smart AND hard, but working smart is really just figuring out how to work effectively.  

The big key is being able to invest your time and not just trade it for dollars.   Make the work you do today give you a return at some point in the future.    It takes both hard and smart work to truly be effective.   The most precious commodity with which we are born is TIME.    Learn to invest your time.

Nugget #4 – Goals
When we have a figured out that we should be “working hard smartly”, we realize the need to work towards GOALS.

Goals give us something to measure with or against.   But if you can’t measure a goal, you can’t maintain it.   Sometimes people get their goals and their dreams confused, they spend time going around in circles trying to achieve a dream, without understanding the relationship that a dream has with a set of goals.     A dream is the reward that comes from achieving the goal.

Goals and dreams differ in this manner:  a goal is obtained through a more mechanical process than a dream.    Dreams come from our emotions.   Goals are set and obtained by performing particular tasks.   To achieve a goal, we simply do something a certain number of times or take a certain number of steps.   By setting goals, we are able to focus on more of a task than a feeling or desire.   Our dreams give us the desire and the drive to get to a certain destination; to start out on a journey.    Our goals help us determine where we are in that journey on the way to our dreams.

This is where a system comes into the picture.   A certain set of goals that achieves a certain set of results without our emotion as a system.   As we run the system, we achieve goals until we have realized our dream.    Achieving goals should be a pre-designed process that does not involve our emotions.   It’s a set of activities we complete in order to a achieve a desired result.  

Let your emotions be invested in your dreams, and then simply focus on the steps that will take you to your goals.     If you miss a goals, you simply make adjustments, start again and again and again if need be, until you hit your goal.    The emotional attachment you have with your dream is never spent or lost, because you are not basing it on hitting your goal.   Remember GOALS – Mechanical, DREAMS – Emotional.

Nugget # 5 – Positive Mental Attitude
Simply put, “If you think you can, you can, and if you think you can’t, you can’t”.   

Our attitude affects people in more ways than most of us understand.   It is much more than the way we look at things.    Your attitude is a “tool”.   Each day you live, you receive training on the use of that tool.   The tool either works FOR you because you are trained to use it properly – or it works AGAINST you, because you are trained to use it improperly.

All of the information with which we surround ourselves, and often, information we do NOT choose to surround ourselves with but is there because of life, provides training for the use of the tool.  

This is where the world (friends with whom we are associated) and circumstances beyond our control affect our lives through our attitudes.   If we allow our attitudes to become negatively affected by outside forces, then our lives can become infected.    In the same way a physical, bodily infection is easier to prevent than cure, so also is this true with our attitudes.  

We should look at our attitude and ask ourselves, if we are making it work properly, for the goals we want to complete and the dreams we want to reach.

Nugget #6 – Teachable
So what does maintaining a positive mental attitude do for us?    It helps us remain TEACHABLE.

If we are not teachable, we reject the things that will bring about growth in our lives.   We lose the ability to look at things objectively to see how they effect where we are trying to go.   Where are you trying to go?   Who are you listening to, to help you get there?    If you knew how to get where you’re trying to go, you’d probably be further on your way there, than you are now.   So find someone who’s there, and do what they’re doing!    Your active, plugged in upline is an incredible resource.

It is through being teachable that we gain the information needed to complete the journey.

Nugget #7 - Vehicle for Opportunity
 
A VEHICLE simply takes us from one point to another.  It’s a method for movement.  We all want to have a reliable vehicle upon which we can depend.    In this date and time, there are many vehicles out there.   Make sure you have determined if you are using a long term vehicle or a short term vehicle.

You do not want to get part way through your journey with your dream in sight, only to have your vehicle break down and leave you stranded.   Nor do you want to use a vehicle that is so obscure it cannot be serviced.

The vehicle should provide you with an OPPORTUNITY – an opportunity to achieve the desired result.   What is the desired result?    What is your dream?   What is your personal definition of success?  Ex:   Success is the progressive realization of worthwhile goals and dreams.   This is the total support vehicle providing YOU the opportunity to reach your dream!   Learn more Here

It is up to you.   Set the correct Goals for the Dream you wan to achieve!  Invest HOPE in your DREAM, and WORK to accomplish the GOALS.
