Goal Setting Tips You Can Learn From.

"It can't be that simple", I often hear it said! But for a few of the lucky ones, moving into massive action on a big goal is not an issue. I've even had comments to the effect that just the thought of what achieving the goal would mean for them was sufficient to propel them into going for it.

What might this mysterious force be and how might it help you achieve your goals? Let's take the Cherry Blossom (Sakura) season in Japan as an illustration of how nature achieves her goals.
Around about the start of April nature puts on a spectacular and beautiful display in the Tokyo area. It is quite common to see family groups, friends and work colleagues gathered underneath the blooming sakura trees, many with delicious picnic food and drink. These are known as Hanami (Spring viewing) parties and are a lot of fun!

In the days leading up this this yearly spectacle, people get very interested in the weather forecasts and newspaper reports of the progress of the Cherry Blossom front. That's correct! As well as occasionally messing up the weather
predictions , the hapless forecasters have the additional burden of predicting the best times for Hanami parties - when the blooms will be at their peak.

Taking nature's position for a minute, it's informative to imagine a degree of creative tension between the tiny cherry blossom buds of early Spring and the beautiful blooms that will appear in April.

The lessons for you and I are two fold:
1- Your Change-the-game goals should be as incredible and miraculous as nature's sakura display.
2- The creative tension between what exists in March and what is shown in April is somehow resolved, almost imperceptibly, on a minute by minute basis.

Big Challenges:
a- Carefully observe nature near to your home and try to imagine how many microscopic but important activities are happening on a daily basis to bring it into your experience.
b- On a measure from one to ten, guesstimate how 'creatively tense' is your #1 most important goal. Remember this number!
One - means almost no tension between this goal once achieved, and the status right now.
Ten - suggest very strong tension between the position now and the possible future.
