Goals and Beliefs - Chicken and Egg
Tis the season to be jolly. Tis also the season to look back on
the year that was, celebrate personal growth, victories and
achievements and reflect on losses, misses and down right stuff
ups.
We individually reflect on the year that was; maybe in an MS
Word generated letter to distant relatives and friends
interstate or overseas, summarising how we did, who changed
jobs, house moves, little Johnnie's cricket scores, the
Grandkids new teeth and so on. How much different from last year
is it?
Then, in the Christmas hangover comes New Year complete with
bagpipes, parties and resolutions. We will; improve business
revenue, have a better sales quarter, cut costs; spend more time
with staff and less on paperwork; go to the gym, lose weight,
stop smoking; drink more (water) and so on.....
Some of us write down our goals, type them up, make
spreadsheets, print them in colour, and put them on notice
boards. And some of us came to the conclusion; that New Years
Resolutions (like affirmations) don't work so why bother? After
all haven't we got enough proof that New Years Resolutions and
Goal Setting doesn't work, because we just did the "that was the
year that was" exercise and not a lot happened like it was
supposed to. Or did it?
For a few of us, New Years Resolutions are just not necessary
because we already have our goals clearly written out, we
regularly review and update progress, we put structures in place
to hold ourselves accountable, and we measure our performance.
So, what is the difference between looking back on the year in
December 2006 seeing a great year, lots of achievements and
growth and feeling good; or seeing a bit of a non event, having
Christmas dinner in the same house, same conversations, same
complaints, same old, same old?
The difference that makes the difference is our belief.
"If you believe you can, or believe you can't you're right"
Often misquoted and so true.
Have you ever set a goal, or had one set for you, and you really
believed deep down that you couldn't do it? What happened? You
were right weren't you? Conversely have you ever had a goal
where you knew for sure that this was a piece of cake? Yes, and
you were right again, weren't you? With all the experience,
skills and knowledge you now have, could you go back and achieve
the first goal? Maybe, probably. With the benefit of 20:20
hindsight what was the difference?
Take 5 minutes private time out for the next startlingly simple
but powerful exercise
Look at a simple goal you currently have - Write it down with
its due date. Study it. Now, write down all your beliefs about
this one goal. List everything positive and supportive and all
the hairy beliefs as well. Leave nothing out. Done? Good. Now
look back at your behaviours in the last month in respect of
this one goal, and delete those beliefs which have not been
totally supported by your behaviours. (For example, your goal is
to run your first ever marathon in June 06. You believe you are
getting fit. You believe you are going to do it in under 4
hours. Your behaviour is that it is 7 months away you have not
yet put on your running shoes to train! Put a line through
"getting fit", and put another line through the "under 4 hours"
belief.
Your behaviours do not support your stated beliefs). Is
this getting tough?
Now, imagine Big Brother has been observing and recording your
behaviours for the last month. Write down a separate list of
what Big Brother would interpret your beliefs to be in relation
to this goal from his examination of your behaviours. Be honest,
you are the only person reading the 2 lists. (e.g. in the
marathon example, "I believe I am not capable") Compare the two
lists. These are your real beliefs as you are living them in
relation to this one goal. What are your lists telling you about
your beliefs around this particular goal? Are they supportive of
achieving the goal or limiting you and holding you back?
This was a simple exercise related to just one goal. If you
found you only had supportive beliefs, then congratulations, you
are probably well on your way to achieving that goal. Repeat the
exercise for some of the goals you are not achieving, you may
uncover a limiting belief holding you back. If so, well done
again. You are now one step closer to achieving (or redefining)
these goals also.
The lesson is: that when we believe we can - we will. When
we believe we can't -we won't. It truly is that simple.
This lesson applies to you, your staff, and your kids, to
everyone.
You may be wondering why one staff/team member is struggling to
reach a target you set and another is effortlessly exceeding
budget, when both appear to have the same skills etc. Limiting
beliefs may be a factor. Whilst performance management is a
useful tool, it is also a blunt one. Share this article with
your team as an opening for discussions to explore if there are
limiting beliefs holding someone back.
The great thing about beliefs is that they are just beliefs.
Beliefs are just thought forms. The most powerful belief we can
have is that we control our beliefs. We can change them at will!
For those of you who now want to argue that point and tell me
that you will go to war for your beliefs. Remember the tooth
fairy? That belief fell by the wayside with a little new
knowledge and a different perspective.
Look back into your history, how many other beliefs have you
left behind with as you acquired personal growth, new knowledge
and experience? Coming from Northern Irish Catholic stock - I
attest to leaving a few unuseful but very strong beliefs behind
along the way, that's growth.
So I repeat - the most powerful belief we can have is that we
can change our beliefs.
As you look at your unfinished goals again - examine them now in
a new light, what limiting beliefs do you have which may have
held you back?
Changing limiting beliefs can be as straightforward as speaking
them aloud and acknowledging their existence. (Note: best done
in privacy) However for the more complex limiting beliefs
Performance Coaching may be useful. Begin it now - Start
shifting limiting beliefs and achieving your goals.
