Goal Achievement: Boiling It Down

There are thousands of books on goal achievement, but not all of them have a unique message. In fact, most boil down to four principles stated in many different ways.

1) You must decide PRECISELY what you are going to achieve and accept no substitute for achievement.

2) You must decide that you will act vigorously and relentlessly to make the goal a reality.

3) You must recognize progress and lack of progress so you can repeat, add to, or not repeat action steps accordingly.

4) You must abandon preconceived notions of what should or will ultimately work.
