4. Setting the Stage
A goal is a dream with a deadline.
– Napoleon Hill

5. Setting the Stage
The major reason for setting a goal is for
what it makes of you to accomplish it. What
it makes of you will always be the far greater
value than what you get.
– Jim Rohn

6. Setting the Stage
Goals that are not written down are just
wishes.
– Unknown

7. Setting the Stage
● A goal is simply an objective you want to
achieve
● A plan is a specific way of achieving your goal
● Combined, these give you the day by day, week
by week, year by year where to get going
● Both are ideas in your mind
Outside of nature, EVERYTHING we see was first
created in the minds of men and women!

8. Foundation #1
All top money earners are FOCUSED and
EFFECTIVE at setting goals!

9. Foundation #2
If you don’t set your goals effectively, they will
have the opposite effect than you intended.

10. Foundation #3
Only 3% of people set goals the right way!
Blind action is not the way!

11. Foundation #4
The measuring stick for whether you know how
to set goals or not is to look at whether you
have accomplished them.

14. Why Set Goals?
● Aimlessness is the worst enemy of success. –
Howard Whitman
● The thing you focus on most will ALWAYS
become your reality!
● Forces you to face the fact that where you
are right now is not where you want to be
○ Produces dissatisfaction

15. Dissatisfaction is Good
● It motivates you to be the person you need to
become.
● If the person you are right now was the
person you need to be, you would already
have the things you want to have.

16. Why So Many Fail
● No goals or plans
● Goals are vague or passive (worthless)
● Goals are undefined
● Goals are impossible to achieve
● Small success (causes complacency)
○ like weeds to a garden
○ Stunts your growth potential

17. The Composition of a Goal
• S – Specific (know EXACTLY what you want)

34. Let’s Dream
Your Assignment:
Take the top 3 from each category and word
them as SMART goals.
e.g. ‐ “Run a marathon” will become “I will run
the Boston Marathon on May 25, 2014.”

35. The “Teaching Machine”
● From setting to actually reaching your goals
● Most have plans that are too ambitious and
give up when achievement does not come
quickly
● Be successful right from the start
○ Break down goal into a series of steps
○ Start with steps that are absurdly easy!
○ Gradually increase and don’t rush

36. The “Teaching Machine”
● Running a marathon
○ Walk around the block once per week
○ Walk around the block 3 times per week
○ Jog around the block as much as you can 3 times
per week
○ Jog 1 mile 3 times per week
○ 10 miles per week for 1 month
○ 30 miles per week for 1 month
○ Eventually, you work your way to 26 miles!

37. The “Teaching Machine”
● The big deception ‐ nothing is happening!
● Something is happening... just not visibly

38. The “Teaching Machine”
YOU have to change first to the person you
need to be in order for your goal to manifest

39. The “Teaching Machine”
● Remember your subconscious mind!
○ Put your goals before your eyes
○ Carry your goals around with you
○ Visualize your goals as real

40. Daily Routine
People at the top use a To Do List EVERY day to
make better use of their time

41. Daily Routine
● EVERY morning, make a list of the items to be
completed that day
● Prioritize the list (ABC) and delegate where
possible
● Make sure actions leading to your goal are on
your list every day
● Keep it visible

42. It’s Okay to Bat .300... a Final
Note
● Don’t be so hard on yourself
○ Life happens... and may adjust your goals
○ 25% of a goal puts you 25% further down a road
you may never have even traveled

43. It’s Okay to Bat .300... a Final
Note
● Perfection is not the standard for success or
failure
○ A baseball player who gets out 7 times out of 10
trips to the plate is considered an excellent
hitter!
○ Allow yourself the same margin... you are human
