Re-shaping your life

Im sure who ever clicked on this thread either wants to reshape his/her life or has gone through such an experience. If you find it boring just leave this thread without leavinga silly remark. Well, life is all about making choices and I have made some wrong choices. I want to change somethings in my life, I want to get rid of some addictions and move on towards success. When I talk about addiciotns, I don’t mean drugs n stuff like that. My case is a little bit complicated so I don’t want to post it here. I want to re-shape my life and find a new perspective. I want to motivate myself to reach my goals..
Ive written my goals down, written the things which are “wrong” and which I should change.. Now what do I do? Where do I start?

Unfortunately the mere fact of your being here bespeaks a 'one step forward, two steps back' approach.

go and sit down with a piece of paper and wright down your life goals.
Present goals
Short term goals
Long term goals
Future goals

I would recommend reading some Tony Robbins or some NLP books.
You've written about your goals, now you need to go about achieving them.

I think you've done a good job so far I mean you recognize what you want to change and your long term goals so all you need is an action plan as to how to achieve them. As the janitor says in an episode of scrubs "Time spent wishing is time wasted" meaning "If you want to be different then be different" Sorry Don't know if that helps Good luck anyway :smile:

Aren't "present goals" and "short term goals" pretty much the same thing? :confused:

Thanks for the replies, n e one else with a good idea?
Fill your life with friends who inspire and intrigue you in equal measure. Comprise your reference group of people whom you want to share the positive traits of - that way, you grow.

Want to reshape your life?

Man's way leads to a hopeless end but religion leads you to a endless hope.

Be religious :smile:

Il stick to that rizzy.. thanks
I did something like this a couple of years ago, I didn't like my life and what was happening so I did a completely radical overhaul.

The biggest thing was literally cutting contact with loads of my high school people who I never really chatted to anymore. I changed the way I dressed and tried to look as different as possible and focussed waaay more on the academic side of things (as most of my new mates were really smart).

I'm not suggesting thats necessarily what you should do, but that's what I did and I never really looked back.

goals..
erm.
you're here to prove no-one but yourself that you can make a someone out of yourself.
do what you think you're capable of but more..

as for me reshaping my life, i wouldn't say i've ever had to do it, i've always looked forward, tried not to look back at whats happened and move on.
secondary school was alright till i moved and in year 10 i thought i'd met lots of cool kids, but a lot of them turned out a bit too big for their shoes. it occured to me then that there is so much more to live for than just your friends, because friends are ever changing. then i headed straight for my gcses, came out with ace results, went on to a 6th form full of very like minded people and yeah, its all gone from good to better i suppose.

i just try not to let other things come in my way and overcome what i once felt could never be overcome, prove any expectations of people wrong, show them that i am better than them etc..

i could go on for ages, makes me sound like i'm some femal nelson mandela though lol ''i don't want to make a difference, i want to be the difference'' being a moto of mine ;P
