Step One – Turn Your Goals into Reality

January 27, 2021 By Martha Alderson

Follow all 6 steps of How to Create a Universal Story Planner for Writers, Creatives, and Anyone with a Goal. In no time you’ll have a visual, organized guide to successfully fulfill your goal. Each step is a video post you can view on either / both my IGTV and YouTube channels (the YouTube playlist for the first 3 videos for Turn Your Goals into Reality! is HERE)

I offer the following in support for the first video.

STEP ONE: Begin with the foundation

The Universal Story Planner line follows the flow of energy experienced as you pursue your goal and sets the foundation. Steps 2-6 build on this foundation. I recommend using banner paper as you create the foundation for your Universal Story Planner rather than on your computer for the following reasons.

  • You’re able to disengage from your devices
  • Your entire body is activated when creating, modifying, and adding to your Universal Story Planner
  • Each step forward is readily available
  • The big visual aid affords you the opportunity to stand back and see where you are in the overall picture and how far you’ve come
  • With just a glimpse, you’re able to anticipate what comes next
  • You have a pictorial reminder of what you have planned for yourself over the next few months
  • Keeps you focused
  • As you successfully complete each step toward your goal, the Universal Story Planner fires your confidence
  • Motivates you to keep at it to the successful completion of your external goal
