5 Faithful Steps to Achieving Any Goal

1. Set an intention. Start with “My intention is to ____”

2. Affirm your ability to realize that intention. 

- “I am worthy…”

- “I am deserving…”

- “I am capable…”

3. Identify tools needed

- “I need this and this and for this to happen” etc

4. Affirm you ability to have those tools

- “worthy, deserving, capable” etc

5. Believe that you have all these things already


Never get out of this cycle. 


Start this way: 


“I intend to set a good intention. I am capable of setting a good intention. I need wisdom and a guide. I am worthy of having a guide and capable of finding wisdom. I need humility and eyes to see the truth. I believe I have those things and I’m capable of learning from every situation.”


Then… live! Act in faith. And as you live out this intention, be grateful and say “this is who I am.” If you find yourself off the path, simply bring yourself back with “this is not who I am. I am better this because…” then repeat all or a part of your steps. 


Another Example:


“I intend to drive this golf ball 300 yards into the fairway. I am capable of doing this. I am worthy of a great shot. I need my swing to be smooth, for my club face to be square to my target, and for me to maximize my club head speed. My swing is really smooth today. I have a lot of confidence with this club in my hand. The ball is going exactly where I aim it and my body knows just how to move to strike the ball as I intend to. I have hit this shot.”


Then… hit! If you slice it into grandmas house, no big deal. “I’m better than that.” If you pipe it down the middle, “That’s exactly who I am.”


We become who you are.

I also think this idea of “believing is becoming”, becoming who we believe we are, is a very old and ancient idea, codified in Christianity with the idea that faith is what pulls you out of the grave and takes you to heaven. Faith resets your identity from a dead sinner to a redeemed saint and then tells you to act like it. When you fail, don’t sweat it. That’s not who you are. Keep going. When you succeed, get excited because you are becoming who you are.

What do you see most people do though? Their minds are way too reactionary to the reality around them. When the ball hooks into the lake, they say “God I suck” or when they face something new they feel anxious and interpret that to mean they aren’t enough or are incapable of dealing with it. The majority of the people I see fundamentally lack faith and have never been taught how to have faith and grow it. The result is complacency, cowardice, and collectively a declination of society where “the mass of men live their lives in quiet desperation”.
