Do you set yourself goals and struggle to reach them?

Or do you feel disheartened and give up on them too easily?

Or do you set goals and then completely forget about them and move on to the next one?

I hear you – I used to have this relationship with goals too!

As an intuitive and spiritual business owner, I thought that goals were not for me. But this doesn’t have to be true. The goal-setting and goal-attracting process does not have to be a struggle –  it can be effortless and fun!

If your heart is screaming “YES!” and you’re ready to be a goal-digger with that “magic touch” – someone who sets goals and effortlessly makes them happen – then this is for you.

After reading this post, you will learn how to manifest your goals with ease and with confidence by creating meaningful goals and learning to let go of ‘deadlines’ and to trust that you’re a goal-magnet.

Are you ready to take your relationship with goals to the next level?

Let’s get started…

Firstly, what are goals?

A goal is simply a focus towards a desired outcome.

Call it an intention, a guiding star, a dream, a wish. It’s simply something you deeply desire that you’ve created to give you direction.

Personal Development guru, Earl Nightingale, said “People with goals succeed because they know where they are going”.

But, not everyone chooses to set goals…

Studies show that around 80% of people DON’T set goals. And of the 20% that DO set goals, only 30% achieve them. Meaning 70% of people fail to make their goal a reality.

I believe this 70% fall into the category of setting goals and doing nothing with them! But the good news is that you’ll see there are simple ways that you can become part of that 30% smashing your goals with ease.

 

So, here are my 3 ways to manifest your goals effortlessly:

1 – SET MEANINGFUL GOALS

It’s so easy for female entrepreneurs to set goals based on external factors. Everyone seems to aspire for £10k months, being fully booked out, 6-figure launches and other wins we see on social media.

I know I’ve been there – you feel excited about what’s possible and you want it NOW! But sometimes these goals that are shaped by our environment are not aligned with where we are right now and where you want to be. 

This is where meaningful goals can be transformational!

A ‘meaningful goal’ is when the desired outcome is aligned with the greater meaning of your business and life:

• Your mission
• Who you are (your truest self, your energy, your personality, your preferences)
• What success means for you
• What motivates and inspires you to work towards it

It doesn’t mean the goal is made smaller, it’s just more intentional. You still want a goal that feels expansive, challenging and makes your tummy flip with excited fear! But the goal is aligned with YOUR journey and YOUR focus.

So here’s my tips for writing a meaningful goal:

•  Write it in the present tense as though it’s already your reality
• Ask yourself “what is the purpose of this goal?”
• Connect with the intention, the impact it will create, and how it will enrich others
• Explore how this goal will support your expansion and growth, and what it will bring for you (e.g. if money – how will you invest this money?)
• Check the goal is alignment with your values, your mission and what success means for you
• Do the ‘tummy flip test’ – is it expansive and challenging?

Ensure your goal reflects all of this in your goal statement.

Here’s an example:

“I’m so happy and grateful that I’ve attracted 3 dream clients into my signature programme with a £10k launch that enables me to invest in my personal growth while I enrich the lives and businesses of others.”

2 – KEEP THE GOAL ALIVE + EXCITING

So many people set goals and then do nothing with them! I think we are all guilty of writing a juicy goal in a notebook and then forgetting all about it – and I bet you, it wasn’t a meaningful goal in the first place!

The secret to manifesting your meaningful goal is through your daily rituals!

We can all agree that goals don’t become our reality without any action, but this doesn’t mean you have to hustle, struggle and work hard every single day. This just leads to burn out and a very low vibe.

Here are my 3 favourite ways to keep your goals alive and be excited about them:

1 – Write your goal down

Studies show that you’re 3 times more likely to reach a goal that’s written down thanks to the ‘encoding’ process in our minds. Things we write down are stored more permanently in our subconscious brain. 

Choose to write your goal every morning before you consume any external noise. Write the goal down in your journal with the “I’m so happy and grateful that…” opener as a reminder of your guiding star.

BONUS – place this goal everywhere with visual cues! Use as your computer password, on your phone background, as a daily phone prompt, post its on your desk or where you get ready in the morning. Surround yourself with your goal so that you can see it multiple times every day!

2 – Connect to your goals 

The power of writing is magical, but I encourage you to take it further.

Once you have written your goal or been prompted to read your goal (thanks visual cues!), close your eyes and FEEL the goal as if it’s already your reality. Connect with the moment and visualise every detail – physical and emotional – and explore it deeper each time.

The mind doesn’t know the difference between real and imagined, so the power of visualisation is transformational!

This daily ritual trains your mind to feel connected with this goal as if it’s already happened. Choose to believe it’s already here, it’s a done deal. Be happy and grateful in this moment that you are abundant and your desires are yours!

3 – Align to your goals 

The goal may be stretching and challenging, and when this happens it’s likely that fear or the mean girl will pop up with doubts and worry and concern.

Remember that manifesting your goals is part action and part mindset! Aligning your thoughts, language, behaviours and actions with your goals supports you manifesting with ease.

Remain focused on what you do want (not the doubts!) by the language you use and morning and nightly affirmations, journaling on the purpose for the goal and why you’re the BEST person to attract it, acting as if the goal is already yours, taking inspired and confident action, and surrounding yourself with high vibrational inspiration.

You can plan these things in advance so that you can complete with ease while you are edging closer to your goal!

And… by aligning to your goals, you will find that action feels more effortless and enjoyable as you’re connected with your goals from the inside out! It’s as though it’s a done deal and you’re ready to receive it!

3 – THE POWER OF DETACHMENT

And after all this beautiful connection work with your goals – detach and let go!! 

A common question I hear is “WAIT, WHAT? Do all that work on connecting with my goals and then stop thinking about it?”. I hear you, it can be the most difficult part. 

But it’s magical…. And here’s why. 

We usually set a ‘deadline’ or SMART goals tell us they need to be ‘time-bound’ and we get attached to the date. And then when the date comes and goes without the goal, we feel disheartened and give up, and the mean girl gets super loud and bitchy!!

Detaching from the goal means letting go of the “how” and the detail behind the goal, and the desperate energy we often attach to the deadline too.

We live in an energetic Universe and there are many things we cannot control, yet we try to control our goals.

When you choose to detach, you choose to have faith and trust in the Universe to bring you your desires with divine timing. You have a clear desire, you’re feeling inspired and you’re taking action… and then you can surrender. That’s all you need to do!

Keep showing up, keep feeling high vibe, keep your imagination blossoming, and keep listening for divine guidance to edge you closer to your goals. You can hear this clearly when you’re detached and not consciously trying to control and run the show. It could be an idea, an opportunity, a new connection – TRUST and be guided.

This is the fun part – you are co-creating your desires. It’s not a one woman show, it’s not all on your shoulders.

Whenever you feel in that masculine GO GO GO energy, relax into the feminine energy of detachment and trust.

So there you have it – goals can be fun and hustle-free!

You’ve learnt that setting and achieving goals isn’t about working hard and struggling day-in and day-out to make it happen. It can be a co-creation process with the Universe that is easy and enjoyable. It’s called the Law of ATTRACTION, remember!

All you have to do is BELIEVE IT’S POSSIBLE and lean into being that Super Attractor that you were born as.

We live in an abundant world of possibilities and opportunities – anything is possible. And you’ve been blessed with a gorgeous mind that supports you in creating whatever you want!

Whether you like it or not, where you are right now is a result of your mindset. What you have thought, what you have believed and what actions you have taken have moulded your reality. Any limitations are self-imposed and can be changed – I promise you.

It’s within your control to align this with your desires and manifest with ease! And I know that’s what you want as you’re reading this today.

 

So, here’s an easy goals formula to apply in your business:

Decide on what you want

+

connect and align with this goal

+

take inspired joyful action

+

let go and detach from the outcome

=

GOAL BECOMING YOUR REALITY!
