* See the goal–visualize it and write it down.

* Touch on something to do with the goal every day.

* Think about how the last step taken toward the goal went.

* Adjust the plan, if necessary.

* Reward oneself in small ways to maintain motivation.

* Repeat until the goal has been achieved.

Another trick for achieving goals is to use the “5D” system. Under this system, each item on a to-do list is placed into one of five categories:

  1. Do: Stuff that can be checked off the list today.

  2. Delegate: Stuff that needs to be done today or soon and can be passed along to a subordinate.

  3. Delay: Items that can be pushed off for now (items should not stay here for more than four days).

  4. Discard: Items that can be removed from the list.

  5. Dream: This is a big goal to achieve in one’s lifetime. This item should go on the bottom of every new to-do list going forward.
