Set the PACE to achieve your Dreams

Living an Incredible life is much simplier than we all make it seem. An Incredible Life is a mindset, a state of mind if you will. Very easily, you can take the lid off your thinking and move from forgetable to Incredible! Once you start living out on the branch where the fruit of life is, you will notice that every day problems and obstacles no longer become hindrances or stumbling blocks that get in your way and keep you from fulfilling your Incredible life goals and dreams. The steps to an Incredible life are simple:

1. Consult your higher source for everything you need, want, believe and dream. Make your source, (mine is the One and True Living God) your CEO. Give control over your destiny to Him, He will handle your dreams with care. He will line up relationships that are Incredible!

2. Evaluate and re-evaluate your associations - you become like the 5 people you spend your time with. Each quarter, I make a list of the people who are in my space and I re-evaluate their place in my life. If, when I think of them, I am inspired and believe that they are an Incredible part of my world, they get a +. If, when I think of them, I feel negativity or am perplexed at the thought of the value they add to my existence, they get a -. If I feel absolutely nothing one way of another, they get a /. I am sure that by now you've guessed it, + signs get to stay! - signs have to go and / signs have one more quarter to influence my life Incrediblly so that they can stay or they have to hit the road. Constantly evaluating your associations will help to ensure that the Incredible person you are becoming does not get jaded or crowded by Incredible snatchers - those people who only want to suck the Incredible out of you!

3.Make a Vision Board or Goal Poster. Habukkak 2:2 in the Old Testament of the King James Bible says "write the vision and make it plain." It goes on to say, "write it on tablets [goal poster]." Where are you going in this life? Ask yourself the following question, "What can I begin to do today to make my life Incredible?" Follow that question with this one: "If I could be doing anything in the world and money was not an object, what would I be doing?" Then write it down. From there, brainstorm and come up with more ideas that all lead back to that first question. An old business model says that "what gets attended to gets done"....You want to make sure that your 16x20 sized goal is back by a 16x20 sized POSTER or VISION BOARD. Don't believe that you will remember it, write it down. In fact, get some post-it notes and stick smaller versions of your goals all over the place to serve as a constant reminder that you can achieve anything you put your mind to!

4. Do something everyday that gets you closer to the vision you have for an Incredible life. Daily activity creates habits and habits create consistency, consistency creates confidence and consistent confidence is the gateway to dreams realized!

5. Live with PACE
P- Plan with Purposeful Passion
A - Achieve with Abundant Attitude
C - Create with Consistent Confidence
E - Execute with Enthusiastic Expectation.

Future posts will break down the PACE. Stay Tuned!

Get Inspired, Feel Incredible!Always remember, if you can see the invisible, God can do the impossible so dream the INCREDIBLE!
