So often I hear people say, “You just have to accept it” or “oh well - I guess that was just meant to happen” - fuey!

What I’ve come to learn over the past few years and this has been very much reinforced lately with my association with David Martin in becoming involved with the creation of the Go For Gold personal transformation program -  the reality is, the decisions we make and the subsequent actions we take, dictate what happens in the course of our lives - both in relation to achieving our long term goals and what happens to us, and how we feel about what happens to us, on a daily basis.

Sure, there will always be things that do happen that are outside of our sphere of control - however, how we react and the meaning we attach to those events is entirely controlled by us.

When you start to take this level of personal responsibility for your own actions and the subsequent outcomes that you get to enjoy - suddenly the world can become a very different place. Regardless of economy, the government, your boss or any other external factor that in the past you may have been tempted to “point the finger” at.

Not only is this liberating, it also allows you to feel very much more in control.  And when you feel in control and focussed - you are better able and of more use to, those around you.

If you are looking to make positive changes in your life and take control of your thinking, your actions and ultimately your financial well being, your health and your happiness, I’d really encourage you to start the Go for Gold program today!

Below is an intro video that David prepared to step you through what’s inside workbooks 1,2 and 3.

There is another video that shows workbooks 4,5 and 6 available here.

Does your life sometimes feel like there’s just too much to do and not enough time to do it in?
Can it sometimes feel like you are trying to keep 10 or more plates spinning on the end of very long wobbly poles, like some circus act.

In the work place people are reporting that they are trying to cope with an ever growing “To Do” list with tighter and tight time frames and smaller and smaller budgets, while also trying to balance the very real demands of family and relationships

Especially in the current climate, where people are being made redundant or resigning and not being replaced.
So more and more, is being asked to be done by fewer and fewer people.
Now you could argue that there is less to be done, and that’s why people are being made redundant or aren’t being replaced, but that doesn’t seem to be true in every case.

Aside from that, on investigation, a couple of common issues generally start to appear.

Firstly. How to cope with the growing expectations of other people? (Your boss, staff, customers and even family)

Secondly. Is how to cope with your own feelings & expectations? If you expect yourself to do it all your self (Mums are good at this, I respectfully call it the superwomen syndrome), not wanting to let anyone down, feel guilty for not coping or inversely resenting the added obligations.

Thirdly. Is how to see the wood from the trees, in other words “What’s Important & relevant” vs “What’s not as important or maybe even relevant”

All over shadowed by a very real sense of overwhelm or impending doom.

The “Oh my god, where do I start!” feeling.

Most people might agree that it’s pretty hard to think clearly when it feels like you haven’t even got time to pause.

However there is a solution to this very common challenge that enables the user to enjoy real relief, improve the quality of their life and do so in a sustainable way.

Take a look at one of our earlier blog posts entitled “Achieve the Things that are Important to You,” in particular the part that explains Chapter Six of the Go For Gold, Goal Setting that Really Works Program, which is all about “Proven ways of Leveraging Time and how to enjoy true quality of life”.
