Support for personal and business achievement
IDEAL:
Learn how to apply IDEAL, the most natural process for our development and the achievement of ambitious goals ("success").
INTEND
INTEND:
Clarify what you want.
Set an actionable goal.
In·tend (verb): to have a course of action for one's objective; plan.
Whatever you wish to improve, achieve, or become in your personal life or for your business, your starting point is to know where you stand today and clarify your course to success - your goal.
Why?
Having a specific goal is not sufficient. Your goal must be actionable, so that you can plan appropriately for progress.
How?
Set an actionable goal by covering the four bases of goal setting: What; How; Why, and Why-not (how you could fail. If you do not know how you could fail, then you cannot be fully prepared to succeed).
Get support setting an actionable goal. Take the Achieve course, or schedule a consultation with Steven.
DIRECT
DIRECT:
Chart your course to success.
Have a complete process.
Di·rect (verb): to manage the organization and preparation of; construct
Are you on the course that will yield success? How do you know? Most people overlook steps in their course to success. Make your best effort to succeed, plan completely.
Why?
Having a goal does not mean that you know how to achieve its success. If you misjudge your start point or what success will require from you, your efforts to succeed could fail.
How?
Plan completely by thinking through the primary steps of your goal. Next, think through all of the activities that support your ability to be productive with your primary steps. Here, you'll address everything related to your ability to make progress, which could involve motivation, preparation, development of knowledge, use of resources, materials, time, inventory (depending on the goal), etc.
Are you sure about what your goal requires and how to support its success? If not, consider a consultation session with Steven.
ENGAGE
ENGAGE:
Define productivity.
Deliver what your goal requires.
Engage (verb): to pursue, take on an activity; endeavor
Productivity is the most misunderstood requirement for success. Productivity is not about busyness; it's about results that are required by a goal—results that lead to success. Understand what productivity means—specifically—relative to your goal.
Why?
Productivity is goal-specific. If your actions are not productive, your goal will be in jeopardy of failure.
How?
Know what your goal requires of you and be able to deliver on those requirements. Develop the knowledge and skills essential to your plan and efforts. Think through RAS considerations (requirements, agents [things other than requirements upon which your success depends], and safeguards). Also, use productivity strategies that aid motivation and focus.
Your ability to be productive is the key to your success. Learn how to actually be productive. Consider TASKS , take the Achieve course, or schedule a consultation with Steven.
ASSESS
ASSESS:
Confirm your progress.
Know what is / isn't working
Assess (verb): evaluate or estimate the value, merit, or quality of.
Are you sure that your plan for success and efforts to be productive are working for you? Don't guess when you can have answers about your progress. Understand what you need to know (the data essential to your success) and keep records of your productivity.
Why?
Having useful information about your efforts will allow you to know if you are or are not on-track, productive. Without confirmation of, and details about, your efforts, you can only guess about where improvements are needed, which leaves your ability to improve (and succeed) up to chance.
How?
Know what information is essential in order for you to gain insights about your plan, efforts, and support measures. Then, have a means by which to record and organize the various types of information that is important to you.
Support your success with a plan, proper and complete preparation, and guidance. Learn how coaching from Steven could be useful to the success of your personal or business goal. Schedule a free consultation.
LEARN
LEARN:
Be able to evolve.
Discover and improve.
Learn (verb): to gain knowledge of or understand or skill in by assessment, research, or experience.
If you are off-track in any respect related to your goal, you must be able to identify where corrections are needed. The Learn step makes IDEAL a cyclical process, and empowers you to improve, and build on your successes. Therefore, you must be able and willing to discover and learn from your experiences—your progress and challenges.
Why?
Often, plans require revision. If you are unable or unwilling to discover how to improve, you limit your natural ability to progress and succeed.
How?
Ensure your ability to learn. Review information about your efforts and their results. Identify key insights and make decisions about appropriate next steps.
Since there may be alternative perspectives on how to respond to, or apply solutions from, what you learn, it may be important to consider another point of view. When you're ready, Steven is here to support your success. A course or consultation may be helpful.
