If you can relate to the above statements, you may be thrilled to know that there are easy things you can do to achieve your goals in a shorter time. You can even start doing them today.

Write down your goals.

It is hard to determine the things you want to accomplish if you don’t even know your targets. Take time to think about your goals and take the first step by writing it it all down. This simple practice can serve as a powerful reminder that you have goals to meet. Moreover, writing down your goals has a scientific basis. .A study done by psychology professor, Dr. Gail Matthews proved that participants reported a 42% chance of success when they wrote down their goals. When you keep your goals inside your mind, they get stuck in the imaginative part of your brain. However, once you write it down, the goals get transferred into the left hemisphere which dictates logic and action.

Craft a vision board.

Another way to make your journey towards success shorter is by believing in the power of visualization. This concept is featured in the popular book by Rhonda Byrne, The Secret. It states that imagining reaping the success you want will help your dreams to manifest in your life. The power of visualization has been endorsed by notable personalities such as Oprah Winfrey and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

To do this, you need to create a collage of pictures and words that represents your dreams and aspirations. Paste the collage of your goals in a board and place it where you can often see it. According to the law of attraction from the bestselling book by Byrne, visualizing the realization of your dreams allow you to release a positive force into the universe. The universe will then present you opportunities to get you closer to your dreams. To enhance success of your vision board you can meditate and state affirmative sentences.

Find a mentor.

To fast-track your goals, it will be extremely helpful to know the fastest route as well as the traps to avoid along the road. To gain access to this information you need someone who knows the route by heart. Someone who has been there and done that. In other words, a mentor may play a huge role in your success. Mentors can share their expertise and wisdom, and guide you every step of the way. Not everyone may need a mentor but having one definitely gives you an edge over others.

There is no magic trick to guarantee instant success. And true enough, most of the things you want to achieve in life take time and patience. The suggestions above are relatively easy to do but will work best if you combine it with the right attitude to work hard and excel.
