The Master Key to Achieving Anything You Want

Anybody can easily achieve what they want if they have this key.

This key may look 'ordinary' but to the person who holds it, will unlock and open doors to acheive whatever they want.

Whether it's a better paying job, better relationship, more energy, better communication skills anything is possible if you have this Master Key.

So what is this Master Key?

....it's FOCUS.
and it needs to be LASER FOCUSED.

Though it sound's 'ordinary' but it really works.

Do you still remember when was the last time, that you were committed and focused in achieving your goals.

- Remember the preparation you did for your important speech presentation.
- Remember the calls you make to get the best travel holiday offer for your family.
- Remember the checks you made to get the best deal for buying your car.
- And the list of commitments and focus goes on...

If it's a long term goal (more than 6 months goals), you need to be focused on it for at least 90 days.

And Why 90 days?

This is because research has shown that if you keep doing something for at least 90 days it becomes a habit. And you'll be more inclined to do it to reach your goal or goals rather than stopping half way.

For example, if you want to lose 10 kilos... what would you do?If you go to the gym and workout 6 hours a day every week, later stop for one month, then not sure whether to continue doing it everyday, I would consider this as not laser focused

Rather, you need to go the gym at least 3 times a week for one hour each and keep doing it for at least 90 days.

Achieving what you want is like 'eating' an elephant.
How do you eat an elephant? Simply One bite at a time.

If you want to run a marathon for the very first time, don't try running the full 26 miles in a single day. You might just collapse in total exhaustion or land yourself in intensive care!

Instead, start conditioning your body to run maybe one mile in a day, increasing another mile, in the following week till you feel comfortable running the full 26 miles.

Therefore plan out your goals, get them down in writing, develop your action plan and do it. Don't you sway your attention away from your plan.

There may hiccups or changes along the way, but nevertheless always be LASER FOCUSED in the end result. Know what the results you want (eg. losing 10 kilos).

When you start doing the above, you will be pleased on being able to achieve what you want.
