Achieve your Goals Fast – Part 1

Billy Cox shows you how to achieve your 2009 goals with speed and precision. This clip will inspire you to get in the game and have your best year ever!

Why is it that some people set goals and give up on them while others set goals and achieve them with amazing ease? The answer almost certainly lies in applying the following 7 secrets of goal-setting.

1. Start With Your Strengths. Although you can base your goals on anything you want, your chances of success are greater if, first, you base them on your strengths and second, on the current opportunities in your field. To find out your strengths, do some self-research, such as a personal SWOT: your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.

2. Put Your Goals In Writing. Written goals have a way of transforming wishes into wants, can’ts into cans, dreams into plans and plans into reality. The act of writing clarifies your goals and provides you with a way to check your progress. You can even add reasons to give you more motivation. So don’t just think it – ink it!

3. Dream Big. One of the factors that restricts the realisation of our full potential is the belief that we shouldn’t go for big goals. Yet all the evidence of those who realize big goals is that we can always achieve far more than we think. David Schwartz says in his book “The Magic of Thinking Big”: “Big goals attract big resources like a magnet.”

4. Pitch Each Goal. Once you have set your ultimate goal, you then need to set the intermediate goals that will get you where you want. Don’t pitch these too easily or too ambitiously or they will drop into the Drop Zone. Aim to make them challenging: out of reach, but not out of sight.

5. Express Them Right. It’s important to express your goals in the right way.
? never express your goal in terms of what you don’t want; always in terms of what you do want
? express your goals in performance terms not reward terms
? express your goals in terms of how others benefit
? express your goals according to the principles which matter.

6. Set Goals In Terms of Behaviour. When we set goals for ourselves, they should be expressed in behavioural terms, rather than in terms of status, rewards or position. That’s because behaviour is something within our power, while status, rewards and position are not. Formulating goals in behavioural terms also means we present a strong positive image of ourselves to our brains. The brain, not knowing the difference between a real or imagined experience, then seeks to act in accordance with the presented image.

7. Pursue Your Goals With Passion. The driving force behind your goal-achievement is Desire. You must desire your goals constantly, vividly and with a burning passion. If you do, you cannot fail to achieve them. It was said of Michaelangelo that he could blot out every distraction while working on a project such as the statue of David, until it was completed.

When you pursue your goals with these 7 habits, you’ll be amazed at how quickly they manifest themselves and how much more enjoyable the process becomes.

Goal setting is the true secret to success in any area of life. Setting your goals may seem simple, achieving them usually is another question altogether. Why is that?

Because you will never achieve your goals unless you:

(1) know exactly what you want,

(2) are passionate about your goal, and

(3) have a solid, realistic plan of action.

This is what marks the difference between nebulous dreams and wishes – and truly achievable goals!

Here are 5 time-tested methods that will help get the success you deserve.

1. Know exactly what your goal is

Your first job is to discover exactly what your goal is. What will achieving that goal really look like? Be as specific as possible about exactly what your desired end result is. Your success will be a measure of your clarity – since an achievable goal plan cannot be created around a nebulous “dream.”

If your goal is to create a more successful business, what will that look like? Are you thinking in terms of simply hiring someone else to give you more free time? Are you looking for a very specific monthly profit? Or can your goal be best expressed in terms of a certain lifestyle? Regardless of what you want, the best way to get it is to first clarify exactly what you want in as much detail as possible. This can be hard work. But without a clear mental picture, you’ll never have the focus required to achieve your goal.

2. Be willing to pay the “entry fee”

Success takes dedicated planning and effort. In a way it’s like building a house. In the beginning all you have is a rough concept. But there’s always an *entry fee* to be paid for success.

The entry fee?

Creating more success in your business may mean less recreational time. Writing your own book may require less TV. Being closer to your children may require adjusting your work or social activities.

3. Focus on your goal every day

Consistent daily focus is absolutely necessary to “burn in” the new neural pathways you need to create your new goal. Without daily focus, the old mental habits that have kept you from your goal will continue to take over.

That’s why success is an every-day event. Re-commit to your goal every day. Don’t let your goal take a back seat to the daily tasks and distractions that will try to take over. Life WILL try to get in your way. Just get, and stay, on course every day. Focus on your goal, and on success!

4. Get passionate

One of the most powerful tools in your “success tool box” is having real passion for your goal. Why passion?

Because intense passionate desire for your goal will help you burn in those new neural pathways even faster. Many, many scientific studies have shown that intense emotion (passion) is a key success tool.

5. Take consistent action

In many ways, actually taking action can be the most difficult step. Successful goal achievement is built by taking one small action after another.

The word is ACTION!

If you commit to take at least one small action each day, your actions WILL add up and make a difference. So avoid sitting back waiting for that big second when everything will magically “just happen.”

You CAN create whatever you want in life. The secret is to determine exactly what you want, then pursue it passionately. But remember — in the end, only action counts! You can’t just dream about it! You have to DO IT!

I recently spoke to a Youth Leadership Group, and I was deeply inspired listening to the
dreams that the teenagers had for the future. While I was presenting, I felt the group of
teenagers begin to realize that it is ok to dream and be proud of what you have done in
your life and where you want to go in life.

As adults, we need to realize that the power of a dream will enable you to achieve whatever
your ultimate “WHY” in life is. By the age 25, most people lose all of their dreams and fall
into a rut. From the age 25-65, people generally go back and forth to work and say to
themselves,” I wish…if only I could have…if only I knew then what I know now,” and
numerous other lamentations as to why they do not feel fulfilled in life. The key in life to
feeling fulfilled is to simply listen to your inner spirit and make your daily work in life something
that you love to do and will help you achieve your DREAMS!

The key word in that sentence is DREAMS! Too many people when asked, “Where do you see
yourself 2-5 years from now” give the answer, “Just let me make it to this weekend.” The underlying
reason that they don’t know where they are going to be is because they have no dreams. This
can be extremely frightening! Each of the teenagers that I spoke to this week has dreams for their life
and where they see themselves in the future. As a professional speaker and business coach, my ultimate
outcome is to empower people to find their WHY in life — to catapult them to attain their dreams in life.
I also spoke to the group about how important it is to be around a mastermind team, which will push
you on and let you know it is awesome you have a dream.

As an overall population, over 95% of adults have no mastermind team but they have group
of so-called friends, who will tell every reason why they should never try to win and to just accept
their life. You need to stop right now and take a personal inventory of your life and ask yourself three
life-changing questions:

1) WHAT is my WHY in LIFE!!! (Why I am getting up each and every day?)
2) WHO is my Mastermind Team?
3) WHERE do I see myself 2-5 years from now?

When you answer these questions you need to be honest with yourself and tell yourself the
truth because the truth shall set you FREE! The key to living a fulfilled life is waking up
each day with a driving desire to achieve your “WHY”. The key to winning in life is to be
part of a winning team and realize life decisions are challenging but very beneficial. Bring
your Dreams back to life!

Find your WHY & FLY!
