Y es, it’s great to have a goal for directional purposes, but we shouldn’t cling to it. We have no control over the external factors that could prevent us from reaching it. If our goal is to get to the airport on time, we can’t control the big accident on the highway or the unexpected road closure. We CAN control our own efforts, such as allowing extra time or checking road conditions before we leave. If our goal is to be promoted, we have no power over the fact that our boss is a jerk, which means there’s is a big possibility that we won’t get the promotion; we don’t have any control over his or her whims. We do, however, have control over our own steps of action! Concentrate on the steps to get you towards your goal, not the outcome. Exercise Five: Create 5 steps of action towards our goal: E.g. Take up a new sport, go out 3 times a week, stop hanging out with negative people, get a haircut and make-up lesson etc. It is very likely that you will find some of your action steps in your ‘solutions’ from Exercise 4 Please write these on your Module One exercises sheet
