Doing Your 2024 DREAM
Part of the special New Year’s 2024 edition of the “How to DREAM like Walt Disney” process, read more here.
Walt Disney may have once said, “If you can dream it, you can do it.”
This week is all about offering you a way forward, a way of doing your dream!
Follow along with this week’s video to get all of the steps for doing your DREAM in 2024!
Here’s a recap:
1. Create an impossible journal, this journal will be for you to write down any time you are starting to feel negative about creating your DREAM. When you notice the negative feeling, you can use the WAND process, or just journal in your impossible journal about it. You are looking for the obstacle thought, the thought that is creating the negative emotion, the thought that your brain is offering as a reason why you can’t, shouldn’t, won’t create your dream. Right then, you need to come up with a strategy to overcome that obstacle. Show your brain, you can do it!
2. Break the big year DREAM into smaller milestones. I recommend monthly but you decide what’s most helpful for you. Do the same visioning as you did in last week’s video for each milestone: How will you know when you reach that milestone that you have achieved it? What is different in your everyday life? Walk yourself through those days and take note of everything that’s different.
3. For each of those milestones, create a BIG to do list of EVERYTHING you will need to do to achieve those milestones. Really, give yourself as much time as you need. This is so important! It’s not a final draft by any means, the important part is that you are getting going! Be sure to include the strategies you are coming up with to your obstacle thoughts.
4. Decide what order all of your to do’s need to happen in. Put a number by them. Again, this does not by any means need to be perfect. It is a process and it is all about action so, each step is an iteration, not perfection!
5. Decide how long each of those steps is going to take you. This can be very challenging. What happens when we don’t give ourselves a set time is that we can spend way TOO long on something that we don’t need to and things get thrown off. Do you best guestimating and adjust as you go.
6. CALENDAR! Wahoo! Get cozy with whatever your calendar of choice is and go, go, go!
As I’ve been sharing, the American Society of Training and Development found that having an accountability partner gives you a 65% chance of completing a goal and that adding specific accountability appointments increases your chance of success by up to 95%?!
So, let’s add some specific accountability appointments shall we?!
