In today’s consulting industry, you can’t do without it. And certainly not in the business world.
If you don’t have one, you can’t become anything.
Goals.
However, ignorance of the actual side effects of this propaganda by those who promote (sell!) it in a full-bodied and effective way drives many people into problematic situations.
Bet’s take a closer look at the process of setting goals:
When you set yourself a goal, you are expressing your desire to change a certain state A into a desired state B.
It is like this now, but you want it to be like this! This creates the first problem that goals generate:
Subconsciously, you are only confirming to yourself that you don’t have what you want, otherwise you wouldn’t be aiming to get it!
Due to your goal setting, your subconscious mind only registers a separation and thus the states of lack and wanting.
Let’s look at a few practical examples:
“I want to be rich!”
By doing so, you are expressing that you are not.
“I want to stop smoking!”
By doing so, you are expressing that you can’t let it go.
“I want to be thin!”
By doing so, you are expressing that you are not.
The focus of such statements is basically correct, but one fact again sabotages everything: you are expressing a separation!
You separate yourself from that by setting goals, what you want and create lack and wanting. Even if you direct your focus in the right direction, with such statements you actually only confirm the Absence of what you desire instead of confirming its presence. By doing so, you program your selective perception to make you aware of the separation between you and what you want. to be accepted.
The problem with this is that absence creates fear: you realize that what you want is absent, and that makes you unconsciously afraid.
The worrying thing about this fact is the extent to which goal-oriented thinking has taken over in our time. Goals and performance are the cornerstones of our social and economic culture.
Anyone who has no goals is a loser, and anyone who doesn’t achieve them even more so.
In this context, another problem with targets arises:
By simply setting a goal, you immediately and unconsciously create the fear of not achieving it! That is pure logic! As soon as you want something, the fear of not getting it arises at the same time!
And it goes even further:
When you set yourself a goal, you usually also determine the way in which you want to achieve it. This creates fear, because you end up back in control! You want to control something in the future:
The way to the goal.
In addition to the fear caused by control, there is also the fear caused by uncertainty:
You can never be sure that the planned path will lead to your goal and whether you will make it. That means uncertainty.
No matter how you look at it: the more goals, the more control and uncertainty = the more fear!
Goals create separation, lack and want = fear! In the business world, pressure is usually added to this: goals must be achieved = fear!
In this state, however, you are then expected to constantly perform better in order to achieve the ever-higher goals.
You couldn’t think of a more beautiful paradox!
Let’s use a common example to look at the problems that goals create. (Incidentally, you can apply this example to any area of your life. The underlying principle or the consequences of goals are always identical).
“I want to earn X% more money this year!”
You formulate this goal on a conscious level – possibly even with your free will. What is interesting, however, is how Your subconscious interprets this goal:
This goal always means separation.
This goal always means lack.
This goal always means wanting.
This goal always means control.
This goal always means uncertainty.
This goal always means dissatisfaction
Let’s take a look at this in detail:
– Separation
Setting this goal creates the state of separation, because by setting the goal you confirm the separation from what you want. If you were not separated, you would not need a goal! What’s more, all other problems that goals bring with them are based on this separation!
Separation comes from, contains and creates fear.
– Deficiency
Setting this goal creates the state of lack: if you did not feel lack, you would not have set this goal. Lack is the logical consequence of the unconscious perception of separation. At the same time, you criticize your current state and the present itself. Your subconscious does not weigh up whether you are earning enough money at the moment! It merely recognizes the state of lack on the basis of logic.
Lack comes from, contains and creates fear.
– Want
Setting this goal creates a state of wanting, because you want something: you want more money! In doing so, you confirm that this money is not available. Again, you separate yourself from what you want. Separation, lack and wanting are inextricably linked. The one always automatically generates the other.
Want comes from, contains and generates fear.
– Control
Setting this goal creates the state of control, because by setting this goal you are trying to control something in the future: You are trying to control your earnings! You are also trying to control that things turn out differently than planned, which is impossible, because millions of things can happen that you could never foresee.
Control comes from, involves and creates fear.
– Uncertainty
Setting this goal creates a state of uncertainty, as this goal lies in the future. Thinking in the future will always weave the component of uncertainty into your thoughts: the uncertainty of whether and how you will achieve your goal.
Insecurity stems from, contains and generates fear.
– Dissatisfaction
Setting this goal creates the state of dissatisfaction because you are expressing that your current state is not good and therefore you want to achieve a different state. As a result, the states of separation, lack and wanting are woven into your thinking. In addition, there is the component of dissatisfaction: you have not achieved enough or you are of the opinion that you do not have enough. You are also expressing the fact that you are afraid that things will stay the way they are.
Dissatisfaction comes from, includesand creates fear.
Of course, the problem does not end when you reach a goal. As goals always generate anxiety, this anxiety remains even after you have achieved the goal.
You then have the fear of losing your goal (what you have achieved) again!
As you can see, setting a single goal activates some very negative unconscious states. With your thoughts you are trying to achieve a goal. but your subconscious interprets the opposite. This results in a mental battle with yourself, which in turn has a negative impact on you achieving your goal.
If you look at the obsession with goals in our society and working world with this knowledge, you should not be surprised that conditions such as exhaustion, burnout or dissatisfaction are now to be found almost everywhere.
One reason for this is that most people don’t just have one goal, but lots of them!
Either way, all these objectives have one thing in common:
Fear.
Even if the fear is very subtle, it still leads to dramatic consequences. It doesn’t matter in which context you examine goals, the effects are always identical. You should therefore avoid setting goals in your thinking at all costs and above all do not confuse them with plans!
Keep the following in mind: what you communicate to the outside world and what you communicate to yourself on the inside are two different things!
The question is therefore: how can you formulate your goals and wishes, or plan or think about something that you would like to have, achieve or experience?
How can this work if you always fall into the states of separation, lack and wanting as soon as you realize that you want to have or experience something?
The solution lies in the programming language you use to program your beliefs. You will learn this language through the Fearless Code, and this will have the effect that you will no longer chase after goals, but will turn your wishes into reality!
Note: the realization that goals are mental poisons is not always easy to digest. On the one hand, this fact represents a direct attack on the ego, from which goals usually originate. On the other hand, most people have a lot of beliefs that say that goals are something important and good. Therefore, it takes some logical facts for you to form new beliefs.
Remember that the harmful effects of goals in your subconscious are not based on opinion or theory, but on pure logic and the laws of nature.
This article is of course only a very small part of this topic! The Fearless Code allows you to recognize exactly how your subconscious mind actually reacts to your thoughts and how it understands them. This is the most important basis for changing your thinking, your beliefs and therefore your entire life.
