I recently read a lesson by Bill Bartman. Not sure if you know who Bill is, but Bill is a billionaire and has a very unique story like many of us have. He grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, was involved in several gangs, drug addict, an alcoholic at the same time.You see, Bill did not give up on his dreams and goals. The lesson I read was all about how to set GOALS, but more importantly change that word to a PROMISE.
Steps To Setting And Achieving Goals:
1. Make Sure Its Your Goal
-Many times in our lives we spend more time on someone else's goals than our personal internal passionate goals. Make sure its your goal to succeed in network marketing, make sure its your goal to succeed in life!
2. Don't Call It A Goal
- Harvard Med did a research on the amount of people who set goals never achieve them. The number was astonishing, over 70% of the people never reach a goal they have set.Call your goal a "Promise", you are more likely to commit to a promise then a goal. Harvard Med once again did a test, and figured out that 98% of the American population will complete a promise.
3. Clearly Identify Your Promise
-I have walked around with a "blur" in my head kind of like when you have water in your eyes. Begin to see your PROMISE crystal clear, what is it exactly that you are trying to achieve.
4. Use The Tools Around You
- We must begin to use the tools around us,whether they are positive or negative motivators you must have someone in your life that is holding you accountable to reaching and achieving your goals.
Example: A negative motivator is someone who has told you this: You will never succeed in those MLM type of deal. Or maybe they laughed at you when you said your going to walk away from your job. Write this persons name down on a card, and post it on your wall infront of your computer, your cubicle where ever you are. So when times are rough, you look at that card and it will motivate you to keep going.
5. Create A Promise Plan
*WHAT is it your going to do
*WHERE will you be
*WHEN will you accomplish it
*WHY do you want this
*WHO's help do you need
*HOW
- In your Promise plan, you need to outline each of these specific characteristics of identifying at a very crystal clear level the entire process.
6. Review Plan and Promise On A Regular Basis
- 20 Mins everyday, you need to review and re-read and note how far along are you on this PROMISE PLAN. If you do not have 20mins, that is a complete lie. There is a special reading place we all have where we spend 15-20 mins sometimes sitting down at. (Bill used this analogy)
7. Tell your Self You Will Succeed
"The size of your success is determined by the size of your belief"-Pay attention to your sub-conscious thoughts every single day you are more than likely bringing yourself down. Observe how you communicate with others about your business, and where you stand as a networker. You may be saying negatives affirmations and hurting your own self belief.
8. Tell Others About Your Promise
- Go out and share with the world about your promise and where you are headed. Don't sit back and try to keep it a secret. Have people laugh at you, then write their name down on a card and stick on your wall! Envision the results
-Bill shared the story of Michael Jordan. Bill was about to buy the Chicago Bulls and spent some time with the team most importantly. At that time he was writing a book and had asked Michael about ENVISIONING... If you guys do not remember Michael Jordan shot a free throw with his eyes closed in the 1997 championship against the Sonics.He was able to do that he told bill, because he invisioned it every single day!How much time are you spending per day invisioning your success? Your dream lifestyle? Not having to wake up every morning and drive to work, but yet drive your kids to school and come back and work from your home office...
9. START
- We are the only ones who can create or fail in the process of becoming wealthy. There is no other voice other than yours that can move you to want to create the freedom you desire, but most importantly desire Start today, start now and see how things will change for you!
