How I Moved from Escapism to Goal Achievement

Here's a list of the changes I made to my life and my thinking to help me move from my escapist goal-setting and procrastination to enjoying my life and actually ACHIEVING the goals I was/am setting.

-Giving up all forms of escapism, e.g. TV, films, computer games, etc.
-Having a lot more free time as a result
-Studying The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle
-Accepting that a lot, if not all of my old goals were the result of a feeling of lack of
-Becoming more aware when I enter the old thought pattern of “I am going to complete so and so goal” and realising that this thought pattern was only a manifestation of a feeling of “lack of”.
-Being in the now
-Realising that being in the now is only one tool to be used in improving the overall quality of my life and is in fact best blended with goal-setting
-Realising that goals should be set to enhance my appreciation of the present moment and the outcome of the goal is just a pleasurable benefit
-Realising that setting goals is justifiable if the means improves the quality of your life and they are not an illusionary form of escapism from the now.
-Realising that results are only created in the present
-Making a conscious effort to remind myself of all the above and not fall back into old habits
