Goal Setting

Create The Why Before Doing The What

What Do You Want? Financially Physically Intellectually Spiritually

Success Is Goals All else is commentary

“Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement.” Tom Hopkins

Everything Begins as a Thought or Idea

The Heart of Every Philosophy You become what you think about most of the time

Your Outer World is a Reflection of Your Inner World If you think about what you want and how to get it most of the time…

Unsuccessful People Think About What They Don’t Want Most of the Time Problems Worries Blames Frustrations

Driving in the Fog

The Carrier Pigeon

You Have the Same Ability You don’t even have to know how! Simply decide where you want to go and you will begin to move toward your goal

Creative Tension The natural result of the difference between current reality and your desired reality

What Do You Want? To get home and watch TV? Or health, happiness and prosperity?

Like an Organic Computer You goal seeking mechanism is non-judgmental. You get what you want regardless of what you decide to program into it.

Why Don’t People Set Goals? Not important Grew up in a non-goal environment Don’t know how Or think they already have Fear of failure It hurts! Fear of rejection Peer pressure

Harvard Study 1979 Harvard MBA graduating class asked if they had clear written goals 3% said yes 13% said yes but not written down 84% said no Ten years later 13% earning twice as much as the 84% 3% earning 10 times as much as the other 94%

The Only Constant is Change Goals can control the direction of change

“Man is a Teleological Organism” Aristotle Happiness results from moving toward something we want

A Burning Desire The Secret of Success Decide exactly what you want Decide what you are willing to exchange for it Get busy paying the price! H. L. Hunt

Zig Ziglar “The elevator to success is out of service… …but the stairs are wide open.”

Goal setting is so powerful that even thinking about goals makes you happy

Take Charge of Your Life Create a five year fantasy “Blue Sky Thinking” Imagine you have all the time, talents, abilities, connections, friends, contacts and relationships to achieve anything you desire

The I-beam Test

Let’s Be Realistic! No, let’s not!

Goals Are Dreams With a Date Imagine your perfect… Family life Personal fitness Spiritual Awareness Financial Success Calendar / Daily,Annually

Your Hearts Desire What do you want to be famous for? How would you like people to talk about you? What would you like people to say at your funeral?

Your Past is Not Your Future Change does not need to be gradual

“Build your castles in the air then go to work building foundations under them.” Henry David Thoreau

Goals Must Be Personal Set them yourself You must own them

Identify Major Worries Three biggest worries or concerns Ideal solutions to these problems Eliminate these problems immediately Fastest and most direct way to solve

Ockham’s Razor “The simplest and most direct solution, requiring the fewest number of steps, is usually the correct solution to any problem.” Simplify

Ignore the Experts Albert Einstein Albert Schweitzer Thomas Edison

Personal Rules We all have them We don’t create them We all live by them Examine them Change as necessary Do you have too many?

Where are you? Weigh yourself Check the cupboard Estimate the job You can’t map a route to your destination without knowing your current position

“To have more, you must first be more.” Goethe

Driving Your Goals Into the Subconscious Mind Reality vs. Vivid Fantasy

Again… You become what you think about most of the time

Review, Review, Review The more often you review your goals the more firmly they become engrained in your conscious and subconscious mind.

How Easy? Write down your top ten goals Fold them up and put them in a drawer Take them out and read them a year later

Could you rewrite your goals from memory everyday? Hold on tight! You are about to take off!

Write it Right Use the three “P”s Positive Present tense Personal

Positive What you want, not what you don’t want.

Present Tense I have, not I will have I am, not I will be As though it has already been accomplished

Personal “I” followed by a verb I earn I weigh I achieve I drive I live

Set a Deadline A Forcing System The Exclamation Point

Visualize This A picture is worth…

“If I persist I will not fail.” Og Mandino

Pain and Pleasure Create the “why” and you will do the “what”
