GETTING and STAYING on track
NOTE: I DO NOT pretend to be the original creator of all the information found within this post but I have gathered all this information from a large number of sources and even if i could remember them all i couldnt be bothered listing them all. I can assure you however that all the information here has been personally field tested by myself and it works!
I'm not going to waste your time and I don't want to waste mine, if everything i'm about to tell you has taught me anything it is that your time is valuable and every second you waste is one second down the ****ter.
The purpose of this post is to help you build a comprehensive collection of tools that will help you stay focused and get what you want.
If you are reading this post you have to promise me one thing, you will do what i say AS YOU READ IT, under no circumstances do you read this and then try to perform the actions because you WILL just wind up in to the all to familiar "maybe later" pattern.
All of these tools relate strongly to the Pareto analysis which is a tool used in business which uses the '80:20' rule (Put in 20% of properly focused attention and recieve 80% of the results, put in 80% of badly focused attention and recieve 20% of the results), so in short the pareto analysis means analysing the most 'important' problem and attacking it first. Simple, yet effective.
Here's what you will have by the end of this post:
After you have all that **** organised and you still can't succeed, then the reality of it is: You aren't special, and as much as you think you are, it wont make it true. The truth hurts, get over it.
If you want to follow this post then you need the following: (If you are missing some of these things dont read on, get them then come back or this post will NEVER do you any good).
Once again, if you DO NOT have these things, go get them then come back and read this, dont just read on.
-------------------------
You have your equipment now? Good.
So now it's time to move on to getting all this **** down. It's going to take a LONG TIME, if done correctly you will be spending alot of time contemplating what you really want, dont try and rush through this, make sure you have alot of spare time in front of you so you can get this done properly. This is an excellent oppurtunity for you, don't waste it.
1. Life goal sheet
This is going to be the most important page(s) in your life, it's going to have everything you eventually want to achieve in life. It will give you long term vision and short term motivation!
Were going to set your lifetime goals and break them down into lots of smaller goals for ultimate success in life!
To give a broad, balanced coverage of all important areas in your life, try to set goals in some or all of the following categories:
Personallity
What is holding you back mentally? Is there something about you, deep down inside that you don't like. If you aren't who you want to be mentally then you need to have a deep think about what it is you evventually want to be. You can be broad, were going to specify later.
Career
Do you have a job? What job do you want to work in ultimately?
Education
Is there any knowledge you want to acquire in particular? What information and skills will you need to achieve other goals?
Financial
How much are you spending? Should you be saving? How much money do you want by when, figure it out!
Physical
What look do you want physically?
Pleasure
How do you want to enjoy yourself?
Public Service
Do you want to make the world a better place by your existence? If so, how?
So you should have quite a list of goals by now, its time to prioritize, what is most improtant to you? Categorize them, A to F. Dont put the easiest as A's, just do what you WANT most as A and what you want least as F. Don't kid yourself, your gonna end up doing everything anyway.
Now its time to specify, make smaller goals which eventually lead to your life goal, i will give a few examples.
Personallity - Confidence, i have to take baby steps. Goals would be (in this order): Talk more with groups of friends, start talking to strangers, start talking to womem im attracted to. (Probably not in so few steps).
Career - Doesn't matter how high up the job might be, just keep it in your sight, what job and skills/qualifications would you need to get that job. and work your way down, there has to be a way to the top. So do some research. Maybe you want to be self employed? Then start researching, start up your own small business that wont put you in massive amounts of debt if it goes bankrupt.
Education - If i wan't to be educated in business, what courses do i need to take a school, what courses can i take outside of school? What books can i buy, research it.
Financial - How much money do you need to save to get the desired amount by the desired time, calculate it.
Physical - Say i want to be attractive? Pretty broad, get a tan, go to the gym, clear my skin, get good hair, good fashion sence, etc, etc, etc.
Pleasure - What are my hobbies? Make time for them, get better at them.
Public Service - What makes you feel good? Start doing little things like donating to charity just to get in to the swing of it.
Think of it like a ladder, you have to find out where all the steps are to get to the top, this is finding out where the steps are and the action plans next are actually climbing them. Don't thouroughly research it, thats part of the action plan.
Set it out like this on your page:
Category (eg. personallity).
LIFETIME GOAL (e.g confidence)
- smaller goal. (e.g talk more with friends)
- smaller goal.
- smaller goal.
- smaller goal. (e.g talk to beautifal women i dont know).
LIFETIME GOAL
- smaller goal.
- smaller goal.
Do it for all your goals, should be quite a list. Review it all and think what it would be like to have it all, would you be happy? If not reconsider what you want.
This sheet is the front sheet/s in your folder.
--------
So you have made your life sheet? If not, go back and do it. Were moving on.
2. Action plans
Action plans are planning those smaller goals you got on your life sheet and finding out what you have to do to achieve them, noone has said anything about doing them yet so dont get scared.
Remember how you prioritised all your lifetime goals from A to F? Well get all your A goals and look at the smaller goals. To draw up an Action Plan, simply list the tasks that you need to carry out to achieve your goal.
This is how you set it out:
Action plan - Lifetime goal (GRADE)
the smaller goal. (e.g. become muscular)
- research what has to be done to become muscular.
- whatever you found out from research
- same as above
- same as above.
Have a seperate action plan for every SMALL GOAL (so you will have ALOT of action plans)
and fill in ALL THE STEPS. make sure if you followed all the steps correctly you would be where you want to be. BE VERY PRECISE, if the action plan is falty then your going to be ****ed later on.
Do this to ALL of your small goals and make sure they have all the grades together. Group them in the piles according to their grade and then put them in different plastic slips in your folder towards the back. A's towards the front, and F's towards the back.

Here's what you will have by the end of this post:
- 1. A Life Goal sheet
- 2. Action Plans
- 3. An Effective Schedule
- 4. Daily To Do lists
- 5. & an activity log
After you have all that **** organised and you still can't succeed, then the reality of it is: You aren't special, and as much as you think you are, it wont make it true. The truth hurts, get over it.
If you want to follow this post then you need the following: (If you are missing some of these things dont read on, get them then come back or this post will NEVER do you any good).
- A computer that prints and software such as microsoft word (Things can be hand written if you have no choice, but printed paper seems to give it more importance)
- A binder with plastic sheets in it. You can't just have **** lying around all over the place, its messy and this folder will represent your LIFE.
- 2 Pocket sized Note books, they will go everywere with you.
- A Diary with all the dates so you can write **** in it for each day.
Once again, if you DO NOT have these things, go get them then come back and read this, dont just read on.

I found this somewhere and its 100% true, read it, understand it, live it.By setting sharp, clearly defined goals, you can measure and take pride in the achievement of those goals. You can see forward progress in what might previously have seemed a long pointless grind. By setting goals, you will also raise your self-confidence, as you recognize your ability and competence in achieving the goals that you have set. The process of achieving goals and seeing this achievement gives you confidence that you will be able to achieve higher and more difficult goals.
