Which one is a goal? I will lose 15 pounds I want to run a marathon Quit smoking All of the above None of the above The correct answer is (5) - none of the above. The first three are wishes Ugo Amadi Black Jersey , not goals. However, you are not alone if you answered incorrectly because research has shown that less than 1% of the population actually understands how to effectively set a goal. This is why so many New Year's resolutions get broken and why so many people try keep failing at the very same goal. The desire to better ourselves is genuine, but the process we go about while seeking this desire is faulty. Here are five steps to follow when setting an effective goal: 1) Your Goal MUST be meaningful to YOU This means that you have to be the person to create it - not your spouse or employer. Make sure that the things you are investing your time and energy into are things you are passionate about. When you achieve it, you will be fired up about it. 2) Make your goals specific (quantifiable) and measurable (end date) I will lose 15 pounds by October 31st, 2004 is a goal because you will know at the end of the time period if you did it or did not achieve it. Many people do not give themselves an end date because they are afraid of failure. In addition Phil Haynes Black Jersey , not having an end date allows you to procrastinate. 3) Make your goals the right size Goals should cause you to stretch and grow, but not be unrealistic. For instance, earning one million dollars your first year out of college has been done, but for most it is unrealistic. On the flip side, if your goal is to run a mile in 6:59 versus 7 minutes Gary Jennings Jr Black Jersey , you have not pushed yourself enough. Also, focus on a few achievable tasks at one time and move on as you reach them. 4) An Effective Goal is always written down This is extremely helpful and essential because there will be times when you goals will make you uncomfortable and you may lose site of them. When this happens, you need to have them written down to keep yourself on track and accountable. Posting your goals on the refrigerator, bulletin board, or in your planner ensures that you will be reminded of them on a daily basis. 5) Review them on a weekly basis You must review your goal in order to stay on track. Reviewing them causes you to commit to their achievement. The positive results of achieving any goal are unforgettable. An individual's failure to achieve is seldom because they are incompetent.

Is fear stopping you from visiting your dentist or making you hide your teeth whenever you can??? How would you like to have great teeth and greater self-confidence?
To see someone's perfectly aligned teeth shining bright and white as they smile is a great sight. I have become very aware of this during recent months. I guess I always did notice when someone had really great teeth, but I don't think that I thought about teeth very much unless I came across a particularly brilliant smile.
But having started spending some of my time in California, I couldn't help but become aware of how almost everyone living in this sunny State possesses an especially brilliant smile. Almost everyone has straight teeth. Almost everyone has white teeth. I have to admit that this is simply not the case on the Isle of Man or the North of England in general.
California is an unusual State which attracts a lot of "beautiful people". I read a brief interview with Hugh Hefner (of Playboy fame) the other day, and he commented on this phenomenon L.J. Collier Black Jersey , which he clearly enjoys benefitting from! And so it comes as no surprise that people who live there are more likely to take the time and trouble to ensure that they have beautiful teeth.
I am presently having a little cosmetic work performed upon my teeth, involving the invisalign system. I have to say it's easy and painless and the results are fabulous. I have become aware of how nice my teeth feel and also how much confidence I feel when I smile. It is particularly noticeable to me when contrasted with my mother's current experiences ssary, but very real Michael Dickson Black Jersey , fear.
The fact is that a lot of people are scared to death of their dentist. The knock on effect is the experiencing of pain as a result of bad teeth and also a loss of confidence because you are aware that your teeth don't look very nice. In reality, I think everyone knows that they shouldn't be afraid, but cannot get this logic to over-ride their automatic, instinctive and intensely felt fear.
