Quantify your goals

Pie-in-the-sky goals are a waste of your time. Make sure you can quanntify all your goals.

Example: Do not say: "I would like to loose weight". Rather say: "I would like to loose 20 pounds before Dec 31, 2007."

This gives your mind a clear direction and destination. Now you will know how much and by when: The most important equations in actually reaching your goals.

How much and When.

Talk and get Rich

Sometimes just merely verbalizing a goal is the first and most important step in achieving it. So go out and tell someone about it. Get someone that will listen. Tell them the details of the plan. You will realise that by verbalizing it, you will yourself fill in the blanks of your plan. You will start to visualise the destination. The clearer the visual mind image, the easier it is to work towards it.

Do One Thing Everyday - Reaching your Goals

It sounds so simple, but it's probably the best piece of advice I've ever heard. Do one thing everyday. If you would like to become succesfull, the first step is to know where you are going. Visualize the end destination. Whether it's a lifestyle, a bank balance or the security of a balanced lifestyle: Know the destination...


... and then...


Do One Thing Everyday


Nike said it best: "Just Do It". By taking one step, no matter how insignificant, towards the end destination is the key to getting there. After a while the one thing you did that day will start building on all the things you did previously and you will start to get momentum.


Momentum is the prequal to success. I'm loving life right now, because I've reached that momentum.
