Most people don't ever achieve what they want in life
It's not because they aren't capable
It's not because they lack opportunity
It's not because of the circumstances and events that arrive in their life
Most often it is because most people never define what they want in life
Most people don't know what they want
And it is impossible to find something
When you don't know what you're looking for
In a recent study it was found that less than 3% of the population set goals
Only 3% have some direction in life
Only 3% defined where they are going
Let me tell you
If you haven't got a target, you are not reaching your full potential
If you haven't got goals you will never achieve your dreams
Because the chances of you one day falling into your dreams is right around zero
Some people might say their goal is to be successful
I just want to be successful or I just want to be rich
These are not goals, these are wishes
Wishes do not come true
You must be specific
Know exactly what you want out of life
Learn how you are going to get it, and work until you do get it
Define what you want
What do you want!?
Write it down and read it to yourself every day
Let it sink in to your subconscious mind
You gotta get out there and seize your dream!
Carpe diem that dream
You gotta say: This is what I want
This is how I'm gonna get it
And I will do whatever it takes!
Most people won't ever end up where they want to be
Because they never define where that place is
They drift through life with no direction
Then wonder why they are in the middle of nowhere
Don't be like that
You know better than that
Be like the very few who know where they are going in life
The very few who have a desire to improve every area
Willing to work on every area
Excited at the possibilities
Looking forward to each next level in your life!
If your goals are easy to achieve they are not big enough
Set bigger goals!
Goals that excite you and scare you at the same time!
If it is important to you, you will make it happen!
If it is not, you will find an excuse!
How bad do you want it?
Some people say they've set goals
But then they don't take action toward their goal, because they get overwhelmed
Well, take that impossible goal and break it down into small action steps you can take
Take action!
Build some momentum
Once you get going, you won't be able to stop.
You will achieve your goal, then you can move on to the next level.
Bigger targets
Greater accomplishments
So you have your goals
You have your plan
The action steps to climb to your goal
Next you have to define your reason why
Why must you achieve this goal?
Find a deep emotional reason, your why
Your reason that will ensure you do not back down from this when times get tough
Odds are you've never met a successful person that doesn't set goals
Because the chances of finding what you want
Without a clear target to move toward are slim and none
If you don't know where you are going
You will end up some place you don't want to be
Setting goals should be the number one priority for anyone seeking success
Define exactly what it is you want
Your end goal
If you want success in any area
You must have goals!
If you want to achieve anything of significance
You must have goals!
Goals are a must, there's no way around it
Not only will they help you achieve whatever it is you want in life
But they will give you life
They will give you a reason to get up every morning
Something meaningful to work towards. That's a goal!
When setting your goals remember:
If it doesn't challenge you it will never change you
Set goals that others think are crazy, that will make you stretch yourself
Set a goal so big that you can't achieve it until you grow into the person that can!
Tell yourself
I will achieve my goal
I will leave no doubt in my mind!
I will take all action needed to achieve the life I want!
Leave no doubt in your mind!
Know in your heart you will do this!
