Let’s do this old school!

Ok time to share a little secret. I am only sharing this because I believe it works, otherwise I wouldn’t bother blogging about it.

So at the beginning of the year, somewhere towards mid January I was reading one of my inspirational books. One of the chapters mentioned that I had to write down everything I want to achieve or receive in my career, health, wealth, love, other wishes that you may have. The author did mention to set a timeline and write down figures like how much of it or where in specific do you want to be in your career path, or what do you want to do to enhance your relationship, or any material things that you may want like a car or an expensive get-away etc.

So I picked an old yellow notebook (I.S.M written on it yaay ISMITES!) and started writing and writing my 3 year plan, and I went a little overboard but that’s ok, I believe that nothing is impossible. :)

Reality check, with work being so hectic I barely got to go back to the book and read through everything I penned down. I did go back to the book 2 months later and smiled at myself for how cheesy I was with the wishes and wants; then stored the book back in my secret place just because I was a little embarrassed and did not want anyone to see it.

Anyway, this weekend when I was making space for my new make-up brushes (YAAY more to come on that in my next blog), I found the book and read through what I had written and this time I decided to strike off what has already been achieved and believe it or not, I got 3 out of 10! BIG YAAY YUHH!! And I didn’t even realize it!! I could also see myself getting closer to the other things on the list and unconsciously working towards them. And trust me when I say that I am a little girl with BIG wishes and BIGGER dreams. I was super kicked and now I am hoping to strike some more off. Whatever happened, I do not know. But it is true when they say ‘write your dreams down’.

All you need is to have a book & pen, and mark a heading for each page like, CAREER, HEALTH, WEALTH, LOVE/REALATIONSHIP, FAMILY PLANS, TRAVEL & MATERIALISTIC NEEDS. Then you write down a year/2 or 5 plan about what you want to achieve, where do you want to be, how much money you want to earn, what car/bike you want to buy, all the countries or places you want to visit, what do you want to do for the betterment of your health etc. And unlike me, keep reading it every chance you get as it will remind you of your plans & goals and how far or how I would like to think of it; how close you are to it. 

And we’re only human to have more needs, so keep updating it as you go.

Give it a shot (only if you want to). It could take time, heck a planner that I am; I have even drawn a retirement plan in my book of dreams :)
