Achievement of your dream can be a daunting task. It seems difficult to determine where you should start. Once you are started it is difficult to recognize when you have gotten off track. There are five surefire ways to get what you want. In order to achieve your dreams do these five steps:

1- Determine what you want. Be specific when you are determining what you want. You will not hit vague goals. The clearer you are on what it is that you want then the better the chances are that you will indeed get it. You will be able to recognize opportunities, garner support and stay determined when you know exactly what you want.

2- Determine the price that you will have to pay for it. Figure out what it takes to get your desired aspiration. Be sure you understand what type of work is involved. It is also important that you anticipate the amount of work that it is going to take. From there decide whether or not you can do the work. You may have to get more knowledge as part of paying the price. Whatever the price is determine in advance that you will pay it.

3- Get a mentor. Find someone who has done it and get them to teach you how to do it. You will need a mentor. You will need someone who can honestly say,"I've been there and I have done that." This person can teach you how to get what you want faster and with less frustration. You will be able to learn from their experiences as well as your own. They will be able to warn you about pitfalls along the way and they can show you how to avoid them.

4- Make a plan. Map out the steps that it will take for you to hit your goals. Write down everything that you intend to do in order to get what you want. Make the plan as detailed as possible. Realize that there may be additions and subtractions as you go along in your journey. Sometimes you don't know exactly what you need to do until you have actually started. So be flexible.

5- Work your plan. Now you simply take action. You get busy working the plan that you mapped out. Take a steady approach to the work that you have to do. Be persistent and stay consistent as you do the work. This steadiness reaps huge dividends. As you chip away at the game plan you will see that the obstacles are no match for your work ethic. Everyday which passes will bring you closer to what you want.
