Goal setting - Adrian Fleming
There are many ways people suggest you set goals and make things happen but many of them are far from productive.
First of all you have the advice that is more like a set of affirmations such as don’t use the words “I can’t” or saying make sure you enjoy what you do. But living in the real world where results count, because that’s how we entrepreneurs profit, I always want people to be, not just realistic and positive, but also very clear on what goals are, why they have them and when the are most valuable.
Let’s start out with the main reasons that people don’t get things done or take their ideas and make something happen for themselves, fear, distractions, procrastination and fundamentally and aversion to risk. But I don’t want to dwell on reason why things are not happening when just setting goals can solve most of this for you.
There are some specific details that relate to you that are imperative, these are
What you want
Why
And how you are going to get there
There’s no secret to those but there are a few techniques you can apply to make goal setting easy and the results you get far more likely to be realised, so let me share these with you.
First of all, be very specific on goals, the more specific the better which means setting targets, for example the number of leads you want to attract per day, the number of sales you want to make a week, the profitability of the average sale. And this doesn’t just apply to business because if you were looking to get fit and loose weight, you should be having a specific weight loss goal in a specific timescale – this is why people who have an end goal, like running a marathon stay focused and are more likely to get there, so apply the same logic to your entrepreneurial activities too.
Here’s the other point, and we can use the marathon idea again as a great way to explain things. When you have a goal, share it with others because this makes you, what I call, accountable because if there’s one thing we humans hate to do, it’s fail publicly and have to explain whey we failed. The reality is pain is a better motivation than opportunity – another tactic that can be used all across your entrepreneurial journey in areas like marketing too. learn more at http://AdrianFleming.com

Eat that Frog!
Learn how to stop procrastinating high value tasks that can move your life forward. This book discusses the importance of goal setting, creative procrastination, time management and creating priority ranking for all of your tasks.
This slideshow is a comprehensive overview of Brian Tracy's book Eat That Frog! The basic premise of Eat That Frog is that we should focus on the highest payback, least-appealing task of the day FIRST, before anything else. He asserts that "your ability to select your most important task at each moment, and then to start on that task and get it done both quickly and well, will probably have more of an impact on your success than any other quality or skill you can develop!”
According to the author, an average person who masters this one technique will run circles around a genius who talks a lot and makes wonderful plans, but gets very little done. (I know somebody like this, don’t you?)
Furthermore, he says that "The ability to concentrate on this one important task, single-mindedly, to do it well, and to finish it completely is the key to great success, achievement, status and happiness in life.”
Let's all go eat that frog!
I love Brian Tracy's use of quotes in the book, and have included many of them in the slideshow.
If you're looking to be more productive, stop procrastinating the important stuff (We can all use less procrastination, right?), start procrastinating more creatively (I like the sound of that!), and reach the goals you have yet to attain, I highly recommend utilizing this information!

Eat that frog today so tomorrow will be a better place :)!
