9. Managing stress by focusing on your goals

Coaching

Stress hardy people have a clear picture of their goals. They review them regularly. This stamps their goals into their subconscious. That steers them to focus on goal-directed priorities and avoid activities that are less productive..

Mentoring

Imagine that it is three years from today. Now imagine that you're a video camera taking footage of a day in your life. See a best case scenario. What is going on in your life that is giving you satisfaction and making you happy?

Visualize a picture of success. Picture your activities, surroundings, people you work with; clients and colleagues, successes; income, prestige, accomplishments, friendships. Be aggressive, with big memorable goals. Type in what you see. Be specific and use lots of words. That will help imprint your visualization in your mind.

Downloading and saving all modules onto your computer or onto a disk allows you to access individual modules more quickly and easily than having to access each module individually.
