Try this exercise. Take a piece of report and write down some goals that you experienced. Under one header, list down things ‘you know you can do’. Under another header, write the things ‘you might be able to do. ’ And under an additional, list the things that that are ‘impossible to do. ’

Now look at every one of the headers strive every day to accomplish the goals that are under things ‘you know you can do’. Check them when you may accomplish them. As you slowly will be able to check all of your ambitions under that heading, try accomplishing the goals within the other header-the one that reads ‘you might be able to do. ’

As of the products you wrote under things I really could do are accomplished, you can move the goals which are under things that are ‘impossible so that you can do’ to the list of things ‘you might be able to do. ’
