Focus On Your Goals

In my last post, i suggested that you should focus on your goals instead of the negativities floating around.
There is a board-game we play in my family called CashFlow 101; created by Robert Kiyosaki of the Rich Dad fame. Ive found that while playing the game, I often focused all my energy on the ‘negative’ spaces on the board such as “Baby” or “Downsized” – hoping not to land on them – not that i can do anything about it if i did anyway.
In doing so, I was focusing intensely on what I didn’t want, and, oddly enough, i ended up landing on those spaces more often than anyone else - ‘Murphy’s Law’ huh? To reverse that trend, I began concentrating more on what i wanted – which was getting out of the ‘rat race’ in the middle of the board – even at the risk of landing on the “bad” spaces. I soon began to enjoy and even win the game more instead of just loosing to my wife and sons all the time.
Look at your goals in this way; Life will happen – either you like it or not. Be prepared for it. An emergency fund will help prevent the need to borrow when life happen. After that focus on your goals. There’s a whole lot that can happen in the next six months – prepare for the worst but expect the best.
