A propos de cet article

Achievement is simply the result of doing the right things consistently over a sustained period of time. Doing the right things is a direct result of your personal choice. Your future is built on the choices you make, day by day, moment by moment. It is a natural, human tendency to disregard the importance of your everyday choices. I think we minimize the importance of our choices because the consequences of those choices are delayed. We do not experience immediate results from most of our choices. If we did, we certainly would be more selective with our choices Instead, we are free to make a bad or ineffective choice and feel no immediate impact, leaving us with the impression that no harm has been done. We have all watched superstar athletes at the heights of their careers, on top of the world, suddenly make a very bad choice that later brings down everything they have worked for. We ask, Why did they do that? The answer is simple: They thought they could get away with it. All of us would make better decisions if there were immediate consequences to our choices. For example, if you immediately gained 50 pounds every time you ate a single bowl of ice cream, you would never eat another bowl of ice cream again. What's more, ice cream companies would be out of business by tomorrow morning But that is not the way it works. Here is the reality: You eat a bowl of ice cream and nothing happens immediately. Ice cream taste good, so you decide to eat two bowls tomorrow, three the next day, and so on. Six months later you step onto the scales and find that you have gained 50 pounds. Your response is, Why have I gained 50 pounds? I'm shocked The 50 pounds came from your daily choices about ice cream. The consequences of bad choices accumulated gradually without your noticing it. You can, of course, choose to stop eating ice cream daily, and in six months, lose the extra 50 pounds. This is an exaggerated example of how choice is directly related to long-term results, and you should never be shocked with your results because you are in complete control. You are not a victim. The quality of your life is all about your choices. Every day you make thousands of choices. You enjoy the freedom to choose your thoughts, perspectives, actions, and associations. However, each choice you make in life has a consequence. So, by filling your days with effective choices, you build a future of beneficial consequences. What that means is this: The quality of your choices will determine the quality of your life. The Achievement System The foundation of any system of achievement is learning to make effective, daily choices. Surprisingly, this is a unique ability. We do not naturally possess the capacity of making consistent, effective choices Why? Before we answer that question, it is necessary to understand what effective choice is. Effective choice is defined as those choices that directly relate to your immediate goals. For instance, if we continue with the ice cream example previously used, the choice of eating too much ice cream simply because it tastes good is an instinctive, ineffective choice if health and weight control is your goal. However, the choice of limiting the excessive intake of calories from ice cream is an effective choice directly related to the goal of maximizing your health. Therefore, effective choices are goal-directed choices, not instinctive choices. Now, back to the question first posed: Why do we NOT naturally possess the capacity to make consistent effective choices related to our achievement? The answer is both simple and complex. Your natural, human instincts have one goal for you: your safety. Your instincts really do not care about your goals, only about your safety and comfort. When you manage your daily activities from your natural, human instincts, your response will always be in favor of keeping you where you are. It's natural to stay right where you are. Your brain interprets sameness or status-quo as security. In sho.…
