How do you work on your aims?
This topic was created in the Pisces forum by haffo on Wednesday, October 5, 2005 and has 23 replies.
How do you choise an aim in which you do not procrastinate? How do you practise with yourself about that? Which "conscious" criterias do you think is enough to make a decition?
I know that you don't find much out with procrastination is my main motive as to not do it.As well as I may be missing out on something that could be very good for me if I do procrastinate.
Hmm..
This is an interesting part you know Tiamat. A person might not have an aim to do something. However a person might tries to find one. That doesn't necessarily mean procrastination. I think procrastinator would be a person who doesn't do what necessary when he already has one thing to do. Finding a thing to do is very complex process. A person might make a wrong choise and start to procrastinate again.
I just wanted to know what are your techniques in finding that aim. What criterias do you have, or how do you know or find which criteria do you find appealing. For example: Some people do go for money instead for job, which means that they value money more than the way they earn it. This is a criteria, and those people probably wont procrastinate.

The only way you'd know is if you really,really think about what you want to do and do it.The underline motive of it's is the above posts reason,you can't get much if you don't do it even if you do screw up you won't get what you want if you do procrastinate.Look at what you want,how you would get it,what is it do you think you may enjoy doing,would you enjoy doing this way of it,etc.Pick your brain and fill in the blanks to get from point A to point B basically,what works for my physical goals may not work for you or anyone else,the person themselves have to figure out whats going to work best for them and risk it.Also the determination could need to be worked on,get it set into thier heads that they really,really want this so they go for it full out and no looking back,could also use "passion" as another word for it.Finding what gives you that beyond the smaller "want".
Yes the basical thought is that. But how do a person can asses the situation before involving in it and knowing that he will do it till the end. I think this is about how well a person knows himself. You can say you like it or not about a particular thing. But in reality you need to know yourself very well to assess every detail in it and then make a decition. I think this is where people do screw up big time.
I just wanted to know about a technique that will help you know yourself and asses the situation in proper way.
Hehehe.
Thinking about Dont give up, already makes me give up.
We are driven by reasons. I think we need to find reasons in every step. But that's either depends on life experience or special method. If either case, we need to learn something.

Haffo stop asking questions like these...they make me feel bad about myself...I already had this terrible headache...now it's getting worse...IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!!
and I'm not procastinating,I never procastinate,honestly!

Well, you should know..we fishes are supposed to understand each other than better than most other people do...and my HEADACHE is not FUNNY!!! I repeat not FUNNY!
Well
I need to work on that part Melusine. I see this as a weakness. What I try to do is actually find strong desires within myself and follow them. I know that doing just what seems to be logical is NOT lasts long...

Sometimes just speaking about them is the most basic way to find what you need within it. I think the most weakes part in Pisces nature in keeping this all in SECRET. Why?
Dunno, maybe b/c we know ourselves to be fickle or b/c we are not sure ourselves...
All I know is that it comes naturally to me...to keep my motivations and dreams
secret.They belong to me and no body else. I like keeping secrets.
Anyway, why should other people care to know something they can never comprehend? (j/k)
Here's the focus..get ready for it ..ready now,ready?If i don't get da money,if i don't reeaaaaaaalllllly do my job good, noo food,no comfort. No food ,belly becomes empty. Emptiness leads to loss of focus. And den u tend to give up. BUT what makes people lose some focus is lack of money, the will to learn some complex skills can be a detterant,spoonfed i.e they jus regurgatate what they learn instead of being innovative and hence they jus stay where they are and feel that is where they are supposed to be. BUt there are others and dat is why u know they are focused is when these things don't bog them down, they toil ,make sacrifices, have distinct plans laid out and contingenicies if they don't. LAAAwd i feel i'm in a dammmn shrink show,lol.
Haffo,thats why you gotta figure it out,ask yourself questions.You can do anything you want to do,people forget that too often,mind over matter isn't so much a myth,you can make yourself do anything if you set your mind to.Example being "careers" even if it is fairies,dragons,blah,blah fantasy stuff,all you'd have to do is look for careers that except that like in some form of the entertainment business;writing,computer graphics design,script writer,etc.Thinking about the bad things that could happen is also a plus because you'll know what you may be faced with and will have to deal with as a preparation of it happening.As for yourself as an example,use the thinking it's a weakness as a drive against it is one idea for motivation you could do.Get angry at it and rip it's head off mentally or something kind of a thing.
Example questions;
What are you interested in?
What are you good at?
What is it that (Example;careers have those qualities and brain storm for a list?
Research it and narrow it down until you have nothing left but the few choices that suits you best from all angles and follow through with it.Or,or okay I gots another one,I can double dog dare ya,to not procrastinate or post that giving up's for losers-you can play mind games on yourself if all else fails too if your weak thing is an issue for you.You also like challenges so....challenge yourself.All the negative things you can think of will happen if you don't do something about it.

I think we might need to talk about this topic and try to indentify the problems. After we identify them we can name them and that will make things alot easier.
What do you think?

Ah this is a simple answer for me and has always worked....if it is no longer FUN - I am outta there in two shakes of a snakes tail! Do I have a fun, interesting life? You bet I do! Do what you love and the money will follow....
KISS....Keep it short and simple
KISS....Keep it short and simple
BTW....same goes for my relationships.
Haffo, I like the idea...I'm not sure it will work but there's no harm in trying...so what do you think are the main problems?
"KISS....Keep it short and simple"
LOL, So that's what the acronym stands for...I wondered about that...sweet!

Sometimes I think people try much too hard at life and figuring things out. This = problems.

The essence of idea here is this question: "What could happen if you would live alone? Would you do everything what is necessary to do?".
I think the answer to this question is very important. It's a core of person. Not every person is cabaple holding himself/herself stable at core or at least wishful to do so.
Second most important thing is an enviroument we are living in. This includes our house, people and places we go. Some people do get affected by enviroument, somes are not. For example, I found my brother gets affected by enviroument very little, while I get alot. The effect here is on concentration. I lose my concentration easily when enviroument is not exacly as I wish it to be. Total downfall.
I found those so far.

I do agree with you. But this is not that easy. People have to be tuned on right frequency before follow their interests. Not all interests are useful for your goals. Sometimes you have to leave ones in order to concentrate on others. I do understand that some people can easily control themselves. But that is very difficult for others. They tend to get addicted on some "interests" that doesn't allow them to make a step.

Haffo,I completely agree with you on this one...my immediate environment effects me a lot...inorder to do something productive with my time,it's absolutely necessary for me to live in an environment that's not conflicting with my objectives.Maybe it's b/c we are so sensitive...I dunno...things were a lot worse when I's a teenager,but since then I have learnt to separate my emotions from the problems at hand...still sometimes I get totally sucked into a situation that I totally don't want to get involved in...So how do you handle it? I've thought of living alone..but that's not really the ideal solution if you know what I mean...
Okay,problems:
1.deciding on a worthwhile goal..b/c there are so many options.
2.Staying focused once I've decided on a goal...don't get me wrong,I always go the distance..but the closer I get to them the less interested I'm in achieving that goal...I get disillusioned easily.

I also found out that writing your problems is much much better especially for a Piscean (I think) than keeping it at mind. I know that we will remember the pattern only and nothing else about it (details) will remain. It's better to write the situation in details when you gonna deal with it later with people. People do need facts. They do not understand otherwise. They do not remember patters as we do. It's totally different with them Melusine. You always will be forced to teach them alphabet about things before they can grasp the sentence. So, keeping things detailed on the paper will help you stay away from being sucked into situation and lose the main point of what you wanted to say. Helps alot.

I have an inquiry about Noah?s ark, and was hoping someone could help.
God said 2 of each of the animal species in the world were to go on the Ark in order to preserve them against the coming Flood. Now, since there are roughly around 50 billion

What is it? Some claim it to be a revealing tool for self-knowledge. Others view it simply as a ?web-able? parlor game. Perhaps it is just a bald-faced sales byte to seduce your mind. Whatever.
