			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_388" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 306px"><a href="http://www.newagejourney.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/achieving.gif"><img class="size-full wp-image-388" title="Achieving Your Goals" src="http://www.newagejourney.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/achieving.gif" alt="Achieving Your Goals" width="296" height="296" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Achieving Your Goals</p></div>
<p>Each person has goals, regardless of the size, which is why they strive to reach these, depending on their own capabilities and resources. If you truly want to become successful, you need to have the right attitude and mindset to achieve. There are several ways to do this and you may be surprised that you had everything you needed all along.</p>
<p>Importance of Visualization</p>
<p>The goal starts from within. You need to have full desire and passion over the things that you want to achieve. This way, you will constantly store the thoughts and ideas in your mind that will lead to success. If your desire is weak, the results and the paths to success will also be weak or delayed. The primary step is to create dreams. You may take a pen and paper and list down the items that you want to do.</p>
<p>Visualize yourself being successful in your objectives. The attitude of the mind is highly important to subconsciously control your actions towards the achievement of your set goals. You can keep pictures of things to help you visualize. Try surfing the internet and look for the right images that will put you on the right track. You may want to consult a professional to help you visualize if you have difficulty.</p>
<p>Creating Your List</p>
<p>Next, you need to create a list to achieve your goals. It is vital that you create the action steps that will ultimately lead to your main goal. For example, if your goal is to get rich, you have to set steps such as saving money, investing, working extra hours, building connections, etc.</p>
<p>It is always recommended to make your list more specifically, such as writing down &#8220;To earn 1 million dollars&#8221;, instead of just &#8220;Being rich.&#8221; You should also be specific about the action steps. You can write down &#8220;Save 10 dollars everyday&#8221;, instead of just &#8220;Save more&#8221;. You should also create a time line wherein you can finish tasks right on schedule. You will avoid the hindrances if you push yourself more by setting deadlines.</p>
<p>Think of Benefits or Consequences</p>
<p>Aside from writing down the list of your goals and action steps, you will also want to include the advantages and consequences once you reach them. For example, you can put &#8220;Buy a new Ferrari&#8221;, &#8220;Managing my main office nemesis&#8221;, etc. These specific advantages will motivate you more. You can also include the consequences should you fail or delay by writing down things like &#8220;Lose my house&#8221;, &#8220;Disappoint my wife&#8221;, etc.</p>
<p>The Right Attitude</p>
<p>You need to have the right attitude that will help you stick to your goals. The most important are consistency, patience and discipline. Consistency describes the work you put in to achieve the results you&#8217;ve always desired. Patience talks about waiting for the right opportunity and persevering despite some disappointments. Discipline means giving up some immediate gratifications so you can get bigger and long lasting benefits in the end.</p>
<p>You can practice the right attitude by talking to very successful people and finding a partner who can motivate you during times of trouble. It is important that you check your list every now and then and make the necessary adjustments over time. Changes may occur but you have to stay with the goal, even if the plan is flexible and altered.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.newagejourney.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/gettinghelp.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-385 alignleft" title="Getting Help" src="http://www.newagejourney.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/gettinghelp-300x199.jpg" alt="Getting Help" /></a>A few people are capable of handling challenges and reaching their goals alone. However, majority of cases always require other people&#8217;s support. You cannot always expect to finish bigger tasks on time if you do not trust others, especially when you belong in a team. You can accomplish more and become responsible over bigger things if you get help.</p>
<p>Start with Trust</p>
<p>It is important to start trusting other members of the team. Although you may be better off doing everything yourself, you know you cannot actually finish all of these on time. Every individual in the group certainly has strengths and weaknesses. You can alleviate potential problems by choosing individuals that are best for the task at hand. If you&#8217;re stuck with someone who is a bit incompetent, you can ask another to supervise and review the work for better results.</p>
<p>Give other individuals time to finish their work and to give out creative ideas that can be beneficial to everyone&#8217;s best interests. Creativity greatly enhances if there are several people included in the mix. Learn how to see your teammates in a whole different light.</p>
<p>Delegation is Vital</p>
<p>When you delegate tasks to achieve your goals, you need to assign the right missions to the right persons. This means that you should understand the individual first before giving out a certain task. You can review your list of their strengths and weaknesses then delegate accordingly. Delegation is an important technique used by many leaders. Only a number, however, has a gift in delegation. Appointing the wrong person for the job can cost you money, time and the entire project.</p>
<p>If the Problem Starts from Within</p>
<p>If you are the one having problems or doubt your only own capabilities of finishing the job, you need to rely on a professional to gain more confidence. You may want to visit a psychologist or psychiatrist to help you boost your ego and motivate you as a good leader. Joining groups and seminars about self-confidence is also ideal. Always make it a point to talk to leaders and other successful people then begin following their examples. There are also guidance counselors and experts available online who can give you exercises, tips and guidelines to follow.</p>
<p>Some programs are meant to help people develop trust in others, as well as make teams work more effectively. There are several changes that can occur while trying to achieve your goals, so you also have to learn how to curb the team efforts to continue being successful. Good habits take time, dedication and practice to become regular. Work on a good habit each week or month then continue adopting new skills.</p>
<p>To Be Led</p>
<p>Not everyone is capable of becoming a truly effective leader. Anyone, however, can be quite adept in leading a few good men. There are times when projects are just not in sync with your own personal strengths and traits. These are the moments when you have to pass the work on to a leader and allow yourself to function as a follower. By working within the team, you can achieve great things. This is still true to the principle of assigning the proper person for the proper function. You do not always need to shine in the spotlight, but you still get the job done.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.newagejourney.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/attract.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-381" title="attract" src="http://www.newagejourney.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/attract-300x299.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="299" /></a>The Universal Law of Attraction can be a very effective tool in making you achieve your goals and practically everything else you want to have in this lifetime. You will realize that desire should always start from within, and the world will just obey your thoughts, actions and ideas. Here are some guidelines on how to get your objectives just the way you want.</p>
<p>Ask the Universe</p>
<p>According to the Universal Law of Attraction, ask the universe and it shall give to you. However, to achieve your goals, you have to truly have an idea about what kind of thing or event you want to happen in your life. There are plenty of items that you can ask from the world. The most common are superficial things such as money, a new car, a new house, etc. More meaningful items include better relationships with your family or wife, happiness in your job and life, etc. All of these can be given to you at the time you want and in the extent you need.</p>
<p>The Way You Ask</p>
<p>The way you ask the universe will also matter. Keep in mind that the universe will immediately hear and respond in the manner you believe in. Your first thought might go, &#8216;I want a brand new Ferrari.&#8217; The world will then respond, &#8216;Your wish is my command.&#8217; However, other thoughts can still enter such as, &#8216;But it may still be when I&#8217;m in my 40&#8217;s.&#8217; or &#8216;But it will happen when I get the promotion.&#8217; or even &#8216;It can&#8217;t happen.&#8217; The world will just say yes to everything you inject in your thoughts.</p>
<p>The time, extent, severity and other details of your wish will be determined by your mind alone. If you have any doubt or disbelief about the power of the universe to provide, then it will truly give to you accordingly. Make sure you clean your thoughts thoroughly so that you set your goals straight and allow the universe to perform the best way.</p>
<p>Your Actions</p>
<p>Once you have set your goals and asked from the universe, your mind, thoughts and body will start acting automatically to lead towards the goals and objectives. You will subconsciously accomplish small tasks and open up a wide array of opportunities that are meant to direct you to the ultimate mark. Renew your goals each morning as you wake up and your body will just function immediately towards these.</p>
<p>Work both consciously and subconsciously. Remember that it also requires effort and discipline on your part to receive the best things in life. Do not expect everything to just fall into place. If you want to land that promotion, then you should start going to work early, volunteer for projects and show that you are prepared for bigger responsibilities.</p>
<p>Staying Positive</p>
<p>The Universal Law of Attraction helps you achieve your goals, as long as you remain positive. Always believe that the universe is capable of providing immediately. Anything can actually happen, in the time you have set. Always be optimistic in the face of adversary. It is not impossible that you will encounter a few problems along the way, but what&#8217;s more important is how you relate to the situation in a positive light. Be conscious about what&#8217;s happening and act to alleviate the effects.</p>

<dd class="wp-caption-dd">Achieve Your Dreams</dd>
<p>Some people may think that goals have a definite timeline to accomplish. In part, this is true, but there are certainly ways on how you can hasten the process. You can achieve more great things by focusing on the current job and getting it done, without any compromise. Here are some guidelines from the experts that you can use yourself.</p>
<p>Step One: Forming a Team</p>
<p>Things can be accomplished more quickly if you rely on other people and assign tasks accordingly. When forming a team, it is important that you choose individuals whom you can trust and are truly competent in the fields you assign them to. Teams need to be supervised to ensure that you get the results you want. You can also create a hierarchy or create pairs so that one can look out for the other, thereby saving you time when reviewing work.</p>
<p>Forming a team gives you the benefit of practicing your leadership skills. You will find that later on, you also get to finish tasks more quickly alone, since you&#8217;ve already created an effective system that will provide a smoother flow of various jobs. Make sure you also get the appropriate number of people for the job, or else you risk having too many to watch over, wasting precious time in the process.</p>
<p>Step Two: Finding Shortcuts</p>
<p>Some goals actually have shortcuts that you can use to reach more quickly. These are not quick fixes, but can help the entire system respond in a more conducive manner, thereby boosting the process. For example, there are no short cuts to permanent weight loss, but you can do some techniques that will hasten the fat loss. Some of the approaches include using HIIT or high intensity interval training, instead of the traditional cardiovascular exercise. HIIT is done only in 20 minutes tops, and burns more fat and raises your metabolism higher and for longer periods of time. Your body will respond to the exercise faster.</p>
<p>To know about the shortcuts, always stay updated with changes and developments in technology and professional programs. Stay connected in a network of people related to your goals. Joining forums and online seminars are ideal. You can also talk to experts, so you can compare processes and determine if a certain approach is truly effective.</p>
<p>Step Three: Extra Hours</p>
<p>Consistency, discipline and dedication always give you faster and better results. If you want to finish things faster, you may have to put in extra hours and work longer than the usual. The more important thing is that you keep stress levels down afterwards by relaxing and giving yourself enough time to rest. This way, you can move on to the next goals to be achieved. Overtime should also be well-planned. You cannot expect to work effectively beyond your usual time if you&#8217;re still tired the night before or do not have enough equipment to work with.</p>
<p>Prepare and strategize by coming up with small objectives and actions steps to be done in sequence. Having information prior to your overtime can help greatly and save you lots of idle time. You may also ask someone to work with you during overtime to accomplish more. Try to incorporate all the three steps above and see for yourself how much more you can boost the process.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-284" title="Indigo Children" src="http://www.newagejourney.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/indigochildren.jpg" alt="Indigo Children" width="300" height="399" />I have noticed alot of people asking questions on what is an <strong>Indigo</strong>, <strong>Crystal</strong>, Rainbow child. I have three children who have their own unique traits and personalities. I believe the children of today are all here for a reason. I have read alot of books and have spoken to a number of people about the children of today. Just last week I had my daughters new teacher call me to discuss her behaviour in the classroom in which she had explained my daughters characteristics. I asked her if she had heard of the Indigo child and she replied No and in that sentence I told her that what she had said was the characteristics of an Indigo child.</p>
<p>From reading and listening to what others have said I do believe these groups of children all need to be fully understood and require alot of support as they can experience deep emotional pain as they strive to utilize the gifts they have been blessed with.</p>
<p>Each child is unique and does have a gift of their own. We are all born with intuitive abilities and have them, many just need to learn how to use them again. This knowledge is always there but we forget it because of the mass consciousness of society. That is why the children of today, society does not understand them, teachers punish them, parents take them to the doctors and doctors prescribe them pills from their essence.</p>
<p>All children are equal and there is no naming any one child as more special than another. I have put together a summary of the two most common characteristics found in some children today:-</p>
<p><strong>Indigo Children</strong></p>
<p>The &#8220;Indigo&#8221; which I call my daughter &#8220;Indigo Warrior&#8221; are the children that are often mis-diagnosed as having ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder). They have an enormous amount of energy and refuse to follow orders of direction.  They do not like discipline and authority and get bored very easily. They  need to be given as much freedom to flourish and time must be taken by their parents to listen to what &#8220;They&#8221; have to say. They look at their parents as role models and like to be treated as a best friend. With the Indigo child you need to be very supportive and help them remain positive in their quest as they already know their life path.</p>
<p><strong>Most common Characteristics of a Indigo are</strong>:-</p>
<ul>
<li>Usually strong willed, but sometimes can lack self esteem.</li>
<li>Highly energetic, true warrior spirit &#8211; very athletic.</li>
<li>Have difficulty with authority and discipline.</li>
<li>Are talented, intelligent, creative with what they choose to do.</li>
<li>Often powerfully intuitive, psychically aware and quite often telepathic.</li>
<li>Easily bonds with animals and nature.</li>
<li>Gets bored rather easily.</li>
<li>Refuse to follow orders or directions, lacks patience and waiting in line is difficult for them.</li>
<li>Often sees better ways of doing things at home and school.</li>
<li>Does not respond to guilt trips, want good reasons.</li>
<li>Often express anger outwardly rather than inwardly and may have trouble with rage.</li>
<li>Looks for real, deep and lasting friendships.</li>
<li>Need, want and respect boundaries that are consistent and fair.</li>
<li>Intolerant to those who display hypocrisy, ignorance and arrogance.</li>
<li>Needs parents support to discover themselves.</li>
<li>Possess a deep desire to help the world in a big way.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Crystal Children</strong></p>
<p>The &#8220;Crystal&#8221; children is what I call one of my sons. Very special and have an air of authority around them emitting to others &#8220;I know what I want&#8221;. Most have beautiful penetrating eyes which appear to hypnotize you and their personality is usually happy, loving, forgiving and nurturing. They are normally blissfully content and love to climb and explore with utter confidence and balance. You will find that many of them have delayed speech patterns and may wait until three or four years old before they begin to speak.</p>
<p><strong>Most common Characteristics of a Crystal are</strong>:-</p>
<ul>
<li>Loving, forgiving, sensitive, magnetic personalities.</li>
<li>Beautiful eyes with an intense stare.</li>
<li>Very affectionate and nurturing.</li>
<li>Have food allergies, can be &#8220;picky&#8221; when it comes to food.</li>
<li>Do not like clothing, like clothing that is soft, loose and natural.</li>
<li>Start talking late in childhood.</li>
<li>Have a strong desire to help others, especially children in need.</li>
<li>Like to play with stones and crystals.</li>
<li>Love being outdoors in nature and love animals.</li>
<li>Exhibit healing abilities and communicate telepathically.</li>
<li>Sensitive to planetary and cosmic energy, such as the moon.</li>
<li>Most are highly intelligent and Wise old souls.</li>
</ul>
<p>While many people are uncomfortable with certain aspects of these characteristics and especially with the expectations being placed on these children, it is gaining greater acceptance in the mainstream because of the solutions put forth by its proponents &#8211; that our schools need to be overhauled to deal with  todays children, that drugging our kids is NOT an answer, and that todays children need to be understood properly and prepared for the world.</p>
<p>Also, I believe childrens emotional wholeness is the foundation for their life. When their emotional wholeness is strong and clear, they can accomplish so much and be fulfilled and happy as a person. This is the most important gift you can give your child. You lay an emotional foundation for your child, whether you are aware of it or not. Every interaction with your child and every experience they have in life creates the emotional environment in which they develop, whether your child is 7 weeks, 7 years or 17 years old. These experiences help them build strong emotional resources and the ability to flourish.</p>
<p>I would like to see parents today making a commitment in making their childrens emotional wholeness a priority and to watch what new things as a parent you discover and what experiences occur in your childs life and in your own. The children today are here to change the world and help us all to live in greater harmony, peace and happiness with one another.</p>
