The Purpose of a Goal


The real purpose of a goal is what it makes of you as a human being while you pursue it. Who you become as a person is the ultimate reward.

Take a moment now to write a brief paragraph describing all the character traits, skills, abilities, attitudes, and beliefs you need to develop to achieve all of your goals.

Have a great day!!!

Pain Is Your Friend


To get what you want, you must discover what's preventing you from taking action. Think of something you've avoided doing until the last minute. Isn't it true that you put whatever it is off simply to avoid the pain of the moment, only to experience even greater pain later on?

Take paying taxes for example. What happens on April 14? Our procrastination vanishes because we quickly change what we believe (associate in our minds) will bring us pain or pleasure. Suddenly, not taking action is much more painful than just doing it.

In the future, instead of wondering, "How can I avoid doing this painful task?" ask yourself, "If I don't take action now, what will this ultimately cost me?"

Pain can be your friend if you use it effectively.

2) As you are setting your goals, constantly ask youself, "What would I want for my life if I knew I could have it any way I wanted it? What would I do if I knew I could not fail?"
3) Have fun!! Imagine that you are in your favorite store with unlimited resources. In this state of excited anticipation, nothing is too big to ask for, nothing costs too much, everything is within reach....Have a great day!

The Power of Clarity


Have you ever bought a new car, then started seeing it everywhere? Certainly it's always been around you, but you didn't notice until now. That's because a portion of our brain is responsible for screening out information except what's essential to our survival and success. So much that could help us achieve our dreams is never noticed or utilized simply because we haven't defined (taught our brain what's important!) our goals with clarity.
There is a part of our brains that becomes like a magnet, attracting any information or opportunities that can help us achieve our goals more rapidly. Tripping this powerful neurological switch can literally transform our lives in a matter of days or weeks! Have a great day!
