Achieve your goal

Dear Friends,

Have you ever wanted something desperately, but felt you could never get it? I think that many people probably experience this. We all have dreams and aspirations, but not all of us believe we can realize them. I believe that most dreams are attainable, provided that we are able to set realistic goals and take active steps to make them come true.

I want to share a story about one of my friends that illustrates this. A young man I'll call Rajesh came to me for a reading to find out why he wasn't achieving the thing he most wanted in life, to become a voice-over actor. He was frustrated and angry because his dream wasn't materializing, So I asked him what he was doing to realize this goal. He said he visualized every day but admitted that he had done little else, mostly because he really didn't know what to do.

Visualizing can be very effective, but Rajesh needed to exert physical and mental energy toward realizing his desired goal. I decided to introduce him to the law of attraction and the idea that every action that is focused on a goal actually helps to bring about that goal. After doing that, we came up with a plan to help his achieve his goal.

Rajesh’s first step was to find out everything he could from the library and Internet about being a voice-over actor. Next, he had to research what kind of training he would need, where and how to get it, and how much it would cost. And finally, he had to figure out how much time he would need to complete a program, think of ways he could support himself during his training, locate ways to fund for his education, and then apply to institutions that specialize in voice-over programs.

As you might have guessed, the next time I heard from Rajesh, he was on cloud nine. He had been accepted to an acting school that specialized in voice-over and he had even found a job that was flexible with his new school schedule.

Rajesh says that he will be working in a studio within a year's time, earning a pretty good salary and doing what he'd always dreamed of. And this is all because he was finally able to put energy behind his dream by finding out how to realize it and then set about doing just that.

Friends, if there is something you have always wished you could do, I hope that Rajesh's story will inspire you to go after your own dream.
