Write down your goal in

life, to get success

‘Have an aim in life and put your best, physically as well as mentally, to achieve that goal, then nobody can stop you from achieving success.’

– Carlyle, a world famous thinker

Irrespective of whether you are 18 or 81 year old, if you wish to spend a peaceful life, if you wish to relish it to the fullest and if you want to get joys from the life which He has given you, you must immediately set apart some time for yourself and write down about your aim in life. Many people may also question the need for writing the aim. They feel as, in any case, life will pass through and therefore, what will you achieve by writing the goal in life? On the other hand, there are people who believe that whatever He has planned for us one has to lead that life. Based on these, the life would roll on as per His wish. In such a case, even if you write your aim on a piece of paper what purpose would it serve? People who think in this manner live a purposeless and aimless life. It is also seen that they do not have many joyous occasions in their lives. However, if you genuinely want that your life should be contented and joyful, then it is important that you set some time for yourself and write down your aim in life on a blank paper.

When you mention your aim and discuss about it with your friends, colleagues and your family members, very often you find that instead of waiting for the views, you start asking the other person about his aim in his life. I strongly believe that if you want to make your life joyful, interesting and successful in true sense, you will have to write down your aim in life based on your desire.

Did the other person plan about his aim? Whether he wish to fulfil the aim in his life? Please do not pay too much attention to such trivial matters. If you have set an aim for yourself, does it excite you and if it does, imagine how happy would you be when you achieve it. Always keep this thought and feeling close to your heart and resolve to yourself that despite of any problem, you will achieve this target in your lifetime. However, isn’t it unfortunate that you do not know what the aim and mission is? Therefore, consider that today there is going to be a momentous change in your life. This change will prove beneficial for you, it shall be a joyous one and it will bring happiness in your life. However, this will only be possible if you decide your aim and then you work hard with full dedication to achieve it.

Your mind might get flooded with many questions like, ‘which is the right age to decide the aim’, ‘what is the right process’, and numerous similar questions. I advise you not to get bogged down by them. Please come to an agreement that only a person who wants to be successful in his life decides his aim. Just think, is it possible that anyone who does not have an aim in his life will have any desire to achieve anything in his life? First of all, you have to decide about your aim. After this, the working plan then initiate the actions with enthusiasm and in right earnestness. With your sheer hard work and positive attitude, you can achieve your goal. Don’t ever think that the aim of your life will be directed by God. No doubt, you may have trust and faith in Him but always remember that God helps only to those who help themselves. Keeping this in mind if you decide the aim in your life and write it on a piece of paper, you will discover a moment of golden joy rushing towards you and a portrait of a beautiful life will be painted in your mind. It will be built on your own imagery of aim. Therefore, my dear readers, if you want that your life too becomes beautiful and if you wish to acquire some moments which keep you in pure joy, if you wish that all your dreams come true and you get all the luxuries which you craved for, then in order to fulfil all these desires, you need to take the first step- ‘Write down the aim of your life on a blank piece of paper.’

I believe that when the person moves into adulthood from youth, his journey of deciding his aim begins. This journey may take some minor detours from time to time but as soon as you enter your adulthood that is the ripe time to write down your aim. I am aware that there are many readers who have entered into their adulthood long time ago. Some people might have entered into their adulthood a couple of decades ago. Should they write their aim today or keep mum ruing over their past. I urge you not to shed tears over your past but sit down to write the aim of your life. At the same time, if you happen to be in a company of youthful adults, please inspire them to write the aim of their life so that they can enjoy the fruits of a happy and joyous life. Every moment is precious in your journey of achieving your aim. Just think that to achieve various aspects of your aim, you have to write the details of what you aspire on a piece of paper. If you do not do this, then how would you come to know what you wish to achieve on every turn in your life and how would you achieve them? Therefore, I urge every reader that he must write his aim on a piece of paper.

Now I have reason to believe that every reader has decided to write the aim but deciding the aim of their life is a big challenge indeed. This has enormous benefits and it is a story of many achievements. You can get spectacular successes. If you want to climb the peaks of amazing success in the coming one or two decades, you must decide for your aim today and go after it with sincerity and dedication. With every action, you will get closer to the aim. Just imagine, even without an aim, a man may win a few victories in his life but it would be a victory without any lustre. If you want your every moment to be exciting, joyous, inspiring and progressive, and want to lead a life successfully at every moment, then please pay heed to what I say and start writing down your aim.

When it comes to write the aim in life, many people repeatedly keep asking me about the process to be followed to write the aim of their lives. They want to know who they should ask for help. How long would it take to write the aim? Such questions will keep haunting you, today as well as in future too. Based on my years of experience, I can say that I have inspired thousands of people in India to write down their aim in life.

I am very glad to share with you that many of them have reached at the pinnacle of success. They did not imagine that it would happen till the time they set upon writing their aim. Your predicament too may be similar. However, you do not have to worry about this anymore. I will tell you how to write about your aim and mission of life. First of all, sit in solitude with a sheet of blank paper and start thinking about your priorities, then write down your aim. It is generally observed that if you sit alone for about an hour focussing on your aim, then only you will be able to write the aim of your life. However, I appeal to my friends not to consider this to be your only aim because I want you to evolve in such a goal that it would change your entire life in reality. I am sure that you too desire the same and if your answer is ‘Yes!’ then please listen to me carefully. Whatever you have written in an hour or so should not be your final goal but plan to read it carefully for some time set aside on the next day. Read carefully about those goals which you listed twenty four hours ago. Ponder over them. In doing so, you may delete some old goals and add some new ones. Now you want to ask me if the task of writing the aims and goals is over. It is almost over, but you must also wish to plan in such a way that it would not undergo any changes in the coming time.

In such circumstances, I suggest that you must plan to maintain utter silence on one of the days in future. It can be a Sunday or any holiday. Yes, you have to read the paper consisting of your goals and aims in an utter silence. This may sound strange. However, it has been scientifically proven and I have also experienced it too that a time has come where you have to stay away from your place of work, office or business for 24 hours. In these twenty four hours, plan your activities in such a way that you do not have to speak a single word. All you have to do is keep concentrating on that paper, introspect about your goals and mould these thoughts like a sculptor makes a beautiful statue. You have to beautify your aim in a similar manner. Now you will find that the aim which you had written in the short span of an hour or two have changed dramatically. Now your aim and goals have been transformed into an instrument which will change the path of your life and take you to a destination where there is joy and peace. You are going to relish them. It may not be by tomorrow or the day after, but you are going to reach this abode. Just think that even if you spend some more time in writing the aim of your life and as I told that you must write your aim immediately after the completion of 24 hours of silence. A person may think initially that it is not worth to spend so much of time on a trivial job like writing the goal of your life but believe me that you must concentrate on your aim in these 24 hours. And then you will find that to whatever destination you want to reach, in full consciousness of your thought process, you would have been able to consolidate on it and finalize it during the period of silence. This is the mantra; this goal has now to become the supreme aim of your life. It does not stop here. You have to nurture this mantra and aim every day and relentlessly go after it to achieve it.

I strongly believe, and have full faith too, that any reader who writes his goal on paper and who nurtures it very carefully, who makes it a part of his existence and thinking process, who makes it his way of life, will experience supreme immense joy every day because he wrote his aim, he internalized it, understood it and kept striving to achieve it every day.

Think about it. You decided to write the aim in your life, you introspected and now striving hard to achieve it and there is someone else who did not agree with the usefulness of this act, who did not try to understand it and who also did not have any faith in it. He would not achieve anything nor does he has any will or comprehension to achieve anything. What is the difference? One of them set a goal and the other one did not. Therefore, please be aware that you have to set the goal of your life. The process of achieving it will follow later.

There is a simple reason for setting a goal and mission. Would you like to know it? To make your human life enriched and successful, you must set your goal. Only then can you would be a successful human being. Moreover, you will not face any difficulty in the journey of your life.

Many times, friends meet together and very light heartedly talk of their aim and goals but they fail to delve deeper. It just ends up in a casual dialogue and exchange. Your aim and your way of life will transform you into a successful human being. Every person must change himself according to the situations, but the goal, which was decided as the mainstay of your life, must move on the same path.

Which could be called as

your goals?

‘Do not forget your goal, otherwise you will start finding happiness in whatever you get, whether good or bad.’

-George Bernard Shaw

Now that you have decided to make your life happy and successful, it is very important to decide about your aim; the next question is what should be our aim. I
