Success Principle #7 - Unleash the Power of Goal-Setting

Once you know your life purpose, determine your vision and clarify what your true needs are, you need to convert them into Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Time related (S.M.A.R.T) goals.

Without goals, you are like a ship sailing the 7 seas with no direction as to where to go.

Jack Canfield says, "Be as specific as possible with all aspects of your goals - include the make, model, color, year and features.... the size, wight, shape and form .... and any other details. Remember, vague goals produce vague results".

It is best to write all your goals down in as much detail as possible. When you write it down, your subconscious mind will know to work on it. Your subconscious will work day and night to make that goal a reality.

We need to create big goals that will stretch us. It pays to have goals that require us to grow to achieve them. I encourage you to set a Breakthrough Goal - this would represent a quantum leap in your life.. A Breakthrough goal is one that changes your life, brings you new opportunities, gets you in front of the right people and takes every activity you're involved in to a higher level!

Steps to follow with Goal-Setting:
1. Write down all your goals
2. Reread your goals 3 times a day - When reading your list, close your eyes and visualise each goal as if it were already accomplished.
3. Create a goals book - create a separate page for each goal. Fill it with pictures and affirmations
4. Carry your most important Goal in your wallet

If you have not already done so, take this week to make your list of goals now. Jack Canfield advises that we should all make a list of at least 101 goals we would like to achieve before we die..

Think of it this way - "If you are clear about where you are going (goals) and you take several steps in that direction every day, you eventually have to get there"

So, decide what you want, write it down, review it daily and each day do something that moved you toward your goals.

Yours in success,
Sam
