Yes I can achieve my goals. Yes I am achieving my goals. I have written I Just Want to Be Happy, and I will fine a publisher in 2013. I am writing The Elements of Academic Writing, and I will complete it in 2013. I have written three drafts of Wither the Revolution, and I will complete the final draft in 2013. I an starting Mindfulness of the Mass Media and will complete a first draft in 2013. I am a poet, and I will compile a collection of my best work in 2013.
I write, I mediate, and I run. I will continue to enjoy these activities more and more in the future, increasing my health and happiness. Life is good. I already have all the conditions I need for happiness in my life. The more I write, meditate and run, the happier I am.
From now until Dec. 21 I have to continue my job, which is to teach seven courses. that is a challenging and demanding job; it is also a job I love. I also have to advise the student newspaper, serve on committees and participate in a variety of college activities. I also lead the Cape Sangha, participate in church activities, co-lead the Mashpee Poetry Group, and do some volunteer activities, such as judging the Prime time Writing Contest this month.
In 39 days my sabbatical begins. My regular obligations at the college will end, and I will cut back on my other obligations, freeing myself to focus on my sabbatical goals. Yes I can achieve my goals. I will write every day. I will run and meditate every day, and I will be happy.
In the past I have wasted time wondering why I cannot do the things I want to do. I have asked people to help me with that problem. I ask them why it is that there are things I know I should do, want to do and ought to do but do not do. Now I know that the very act of asking that question is the problem itself. Wondering why I do not achieve goals ensures that I do not achieve goals. Delighting in the fact that I am achieving my goals ensures that I do achieve goals. It is not magical thinking or some miraculous trick. It is simply positive thinking, which is extremely helpful.
