U.S. Women’s National Team midfielder Carli Lloyd visualized herself scoring a bunch of goals in the World Cup final back in May. She netted three in the first 16 minutes of play to propel USA to victory. She got her goals.  Literally. And you too can use visualization to achieve your goals too . . .

HERE’S HOW: “There’s a four step process that when applied, works wonders in helping you achieve your goals,” says Life Coach, Anne Deidre, who has been featured on ABC TV, NBC TV, HuffPost Live and CBS Radio across the country. “Whether it’s the World Cup, losing weight or starting your own business, whatever you want to do, you can!”

The 4 Step Process To Achieve Any Goal

Get An Idea – pay attention to those light bulbs that go off in your head. Dream big and set your goal.

Visualize It As If It’s REAL – imagine you are already doing what you set your sights on and, here’s the key, feel the feelings that come with it. See it and feel it as if it is already a part of your life. What emotions are running through you when you put on your dream jeans and they fit? When you open your doors for business?

Map Out Your Plan – get a calendar out and pen, not pencil, in time for you to work towards your goal. Even if you are a busy mom, you can carve out time. Plan meals in advance, schedule activities in advance and STICK TO IT.

Take Action – because you’ve been thinking, seeing, feeling and planning for your success, by the time you take action, everything is in alignment. What you do will flow effortlessly, moving your goal closer and closer until you can reach out and grab it!
