Goals, Goals & More Goals
Posted by admin on September 30, 2006 under UncategorizedOne important way to help improve your wealth image and bring you closer to achieving a healthy wealth image is to make some decisions about where you want to be wealth wise and begin setting goals toward that end. It is very important to set a long term goal then break it down to smaller goals that you can achieve over a year, month, week and even daily. Writing down even the small, seemingly unimportant tasks will help you because when you can cross off something after you have achieved it does give a great sense of accomplishment and help spur you on to the next goal. Write them down and tape them where you will see them so you can remember to look at them. Keep them before your eyes.
Okay, answer this: What wealth improvement tape or CD have you listened to today? Don’t forget…it is very important to put things in that will help. I keep CD’s in may car so that as I’m driving around I’m improving my inner self. Also, it is great to have a visual goal. For instance: today is Sunday and that’s when there are open houses galore. After church I always get the Sunday paper and after lunch I scour the real estate section circling the open houses. I then write them down in order of location and from 2-5pm I go looking. Looking at these open houses, which are normally the more expensive houses, is building in me the idea that this is normal and that I will have a house like this. I’m househunting, in case you were wondering. So the more I put my eyes to something nicer and more expensive, the more my expectation for it will grow. So the more you listen to improvement tapes or CD’s the more your mind and inner self will change to it.
Have you crossed off any short term goals? Are you getting any closer to your long term goals? Don’t forget, accomplishing those short term goals will keep you focused to get to the end of your journey. By the way, we should probably discuss that…the end of your journey. What are you trying to accomplish and why? The why is very important.
We know that without a big enough why, many of you will never take your first steps down the road to success and even if you do begin, when you encounter the first obstacle you might turn back if you don’t have a strong enough why. So having a strong why not only gives you the courage, strength and belief to begin your journey, it also gives you the perseverance and persistence to succeed. So you must have an unstoppable why that resonates with your authentic self and that is fed and nurtured everyday. This is the most important foundation to your success.
Most successful people will tell you that with a strong enough why, figuring out how becomes easy. It also helps if you lend yourself toward listening and reading things that will help you in the right direction. At the moment I’m working to keep myself motivated while I’m endeavoring to be successful at a somewhat new business. I need to stay focused. The other day I happened to hear someone talking about Anthony Robbins so I looked him up in our library catalog. Sure enough, a set of his CD’s was available and I’ve begun listening to him. There is something about listening to motivational tapes that will spur you on and even give you ideas. If you can keep the positive coming in and keep the negative totally out, just think how far you can go. I urge you to begin thinking about your why and write it down TODAY!
