Setting specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and time-bound goals is important for success. The daughter of a real estate developer asked her father the secret to his success, and he answered "know what you want." It is important to clearly define your goals and have a plan to achieve them by a certain date or time. Writing down your goals and visualizing them each day can help you stay committed to achieving them.

1. What is good about goal setting

2.  You read a book from beginning to end;
 You plan by beginning with your goal and
then you back track by making the plan of
action;
 It is a reverse thinking process

3. A guest entrepreneur, the daughter of the
largest real estate developer in Region 3
asked this and I volunteered many answers
like –”Hard work, hard work, hard work”;
“keep your word”, “ good planning and
execution”
And THEYWERE ALL WRONG!

4. Her father’s secret of success:
KNOW WHAT YOU WANT

5. In theWizard of Oz, Judy Garland inquired
from theTin Man, if she would turn left
right or left?
And theTin Man asked, “Where are you
going?” and she answered I do not know?
To which theTin Man said,” it does not
matter if you do not know where you are
going”

6.  Jim Carrey wrote himself a post dated check
so that he will commit himself to working
hard until he gets that amount; (I think it was
$15 million per movie)
 He got that paycheck by the time he did the
“Mask” one of his most popular movies

7.  You must see it in your mind;
 You must feel it;
 You must live it;

8.  Ideas are fine but execution is a bitch;
 Many great ideas are washed down the drain
in the bathroom;
 Many know the principles of getting rich but
never get rich; all of these are available for
free at theWEB
 Why?

9.  I placed a picture of a MB 124 and a 7 series
BMW on the mirror and I placed my
signature on this and a year;
 I listed down all my goals beside that
picture : the projects I will do, the salary
and the networth that I should have for a
certain date.
 This strategy helped me achieve my goals

10.  Specific: amount, it must be concrete and
discrete; can not be ambiguous and general;
 Measureable: in pesos, in monetary terms,
in inches, meters or time if it is a race;
 Achievable - you resources and experience
must fit the goal
 Realistic - it can not be just an imagination
 Time bound - there must be timeline;
deadlines for achievement
