Genuine and Gallant Goals

Gallant, genuine, and graphic goals are very prodigious and profound ambitions to embrace; a basic attribute is they give us a sincere reason for living. Also, another beautiful and dazzling aspect is we get to imagine and create them all by ourselves.

We are all highly capable of imagining, exploring, formulating, visualizing, and becoming the type of person we wish to be, anything we want to do, and go anywhere we wish to go – if we are willing to pay the price! If it’s a worthy goal that will improve us, don’t even think about what others think – just do it! Granted, we all still have other responsibilities, but that shouldn’t stop us from our goals...write them down, hammer out a plan, and go for it!

Consider this: if we don’t generate a goal, we have no inclination of where we are going to end up ... or down! Naturally, everyone enjoys being down once in awhile, but only for every worthy rationalizations. Otherwise, I suppose we would desire all those creepy crawlies inside of us to transform into “joy germs”, and spread all sorts of good cheer throughout our biological systems.

All those minute, merry microbes are going to circulate happiness a lot quicker when they have something wonderful to look forward to. Therefore, when we select a reputable goal, they get all excited and rambunctious, spread the great news and happiness all over, and work a lot more efficiently – which, in turn, improves our health, and creates natural optimism. And before we can say antidisestablishmentarianism, we have created a perpetual cycle of happiness. Isn’t that what we wanted in the first place? Imagine that! And to think, we accomplished all that by just deciding on a goal – imagine what we could create by going for it!

Any idea what goals do best? They reach out to all those lazy neurons in our meandering minds, slap them around until they wake up, and compel them to design, scheme, contrive, frame, conceptualize, and formulate a positive plan to attain them --- which automatically prods our bodacious bodies to get off our roosting rears and do something about it. Our minds, imaginations, and curiosity have been just sitting there, mad as hell and depressed, wanting to show off all their fantastic power... all they need is a goal, and a plan!

Just imagine all that fluxing and pulsating dynamic power inside just waiting to be set free to accomplish what you want. Still not convinced? Contemplate this! If you program your brain for your goal, the chances of failure are almost absolutely zero! Why? Because we live our lives in our minds – all that organic matter doesn’t know the difference between failure and success, unless you tell it.

Some folks say, “We have to have failure to know success” --- maybe! Well, why not try to have so many successes that you don’t give a _______(you fill in the blank space) about failure? If something doesn’t work out, just tell the gray matter it was successful in determining it didn’t work, so now it can attempt something else – the wee neurons will not only feel good over the compliment, but will look forward to the next challenge. We must understand that all those scheming synaptic connections love their “joy jolts”- they crave them! Every time we caress them with positive words and deeds, the electricity and chemicals zaps them with “joy jolts”, and they begin blushing, giggling, gloating, and smiling with happiness and confidence...when they are happy, we are happy. It’s that simple!

Well, it’s not quite that effortless! If it were effortless, we wouldn’t be required to put some effort into it – which would render it not worth the effort. In turn, our neurons would not receive their required rations of “joy jolts”, become lethargic, and we might wind up, or down, in the barnyard.

Of course, we all realize we need to interject some effort (determination) into it, all we have to do is list the goals, lay out the plan to reach them, and as Shakespeare put
 it: “ Action is Eloquence” – fulfill one step per day – at least one! Now, we can begin doing some serious dreamingly serious planning...and some serious action!
