The Steps Explained

 
 

S: You can start small

 
What do you require to start any venture or endeavor? Nothing. Begin with a dream, idea or objective. Start with a prayer. You do not require money to begin your dream. Get your feet on the ground. Make sure you know what is to be done.
 
You can always start small.  "Inch by inch, anything's cinch."
 

T: Think of possibilities

 
Every objective that comes into your dream can be achieved. Think about what is needed to achieve the objective. What you need to do may be get up early and do more work, stay awake for some more time and do more work, cut down on your expenses, eliminate waste or become more punctual. Think of various ways in which you can move forward. Remember that you can start small.
 

R: Reach a little further (move a little further)

 
You made a beginning. You took some small steps. Now stretch your imagination. You can be more than you. You can stretch further. You can leverage on your early success. your can now take on bigger tasks on way to your objective.
 

I: Invest wisely

 
You have to put your money, energy, and reputation into your objective now. Be careful at this stage and do things after planning. "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also," Jesus said. Once you staked your wealth and reputation on the project, you are there totally with the project.
 

V: Visualize success

 
You need to see the successful completion of your project now in your brain. A battle is won in the brain. A general must see victory in his brain. Then challenges that come about can be tackled more skillfully and the projects are guided to success.
 

E: Expand carefully

 
The project is declared as success by many. Now one has to expand and enlarge the project. Do it surely, safely and successfully.
