A Goal is more than just writing Stuff down on Paper.


There have been countless articles on Goal Settingbut how do you actually go about Setting and Getting Your Goal?
Some great advice? Great Leaders are Great Followers first. Heres a few Key people that I suggest you follow. Jeffery Combs, Art Williams "Just Do It" speech on you tube, and of course "Nike" the big sports Company with wise words, "Just do it"

You might be saying at this point, "Thats all fine and dandy but what do I actually do to achieve my goals"?

First, Start with your Mindset: Create an atmosphere of prosperity
Too many of us have a negative self talk that will talk us right out of our dreams and goals. Instead of talking lack into your existence, make a consious decision every day to create an atmosphere in your life of prosperity by using power phrases and words like "I will", "I Can","I am"

Just Decide
Make the decision first that you WILL accomplish what it is you need to do regardless of obstacles, fears or doubt.
Decide then Act.

Show up!
Many of us have been programed to work 40 hours a week for 40 years and show up on time for an employer to help them achieve their goals, but what about YOU? Dont you deserve to show up for yourself everyday to make your goals and dreams a reality? YES YOU DO! You deserve right now to have everything you deserve and more! Show up for yourself every day and I promise, You too will be living the life that you have imagined while everyone else is merely getting by.

Visualize the End result
Sit back, relax in a quiet spot and look into your minds eye. One of the most important exercises you can do is to visualize the outcome of your goal.
What does it look like?, How does it feel?, Where will you be?, When or What time of year is it?
See it all in your minds eye! This is Powerful

Ok, So now what?
Now that you see it in your minds eye and feel what it will be like when you achieve that goal, you need skill, discipline, and consistency to make it happen.

Set a goal date
This must be realistic. What kind of goal are you going for?
Set small goals along the way in 90 day increments. With in that increment set daily action goals that are bite sized and do remember to Show up for yourself!

Without work, we have no momentum
Be Consistent.

Break it down into Steps or Mini goals
Breaking it down into smaller more manageable bite size pieces every day creates a blueprint for your foundation.


Now, Heres an exercise for you to do:

1. Write down your main goal.
2. List 10 action steps that will lead you to the achievement of that goal.
3. Get started on one step today.


Dont be like a GPS with no address to navigate to. Imput your goal and drive smart to your desired location.
