Have You Set A Goal?
It’s hard to believe that 5 months have passed since the last post on the TTIK site. Obviously I took the concept of “Freedom” to also mean freedom from posting updates.
A lot has changed since the last post. The importance of Freedom still rings true in many areas, but the biggest topic I want to address again is SMR: Small, Measurable, Results.
Whether your goal is to lose weight, get in better shape, make $500 more per month or meet the person of of your dreams you need to set goals for yourself. It all starts with your first goal.
People are afraid of failure so they often never even try. Those people that are successful are the people that have forgotten about fear, set their goals and reached them. The feeling of accomplishment is amazing and it drives you to continue and create bigger and better goals.
You may want to create a full-time income online and to do that you need to earn at least $65,000 per year. That’s a big chunk of change, but when you break it down into manageable goals you can accomplish it.
Start with just trying to make an extra $100.00 per month. That alone could cover the cost of your cell phone, cable bill or extra groceries. Then shoot for $500, $1000 and so on. When you reach your first goal your motivation is going to sore…you’re going to get in tune with what needs to be done and you will get focused quickly.
1 out of 10 online marketers end up giving up their online dreams because they can’t seem to reach their dream of 45k in 30 days by pushing a button. The only marketers making money like that are the marketers that are getting YOU to push THEIR buy button. Don’t fall for that.
Another very important rule for setting a goal is being accountable for reaching it. Share your goal with friends, colleagues or anyone that is going to motivate and push you. They must hold you accountable for reaching your goal and encourage you to achieve it.
Nothing will motivate you more than someone cheering you on and telling you that they believe in you. Stay away from the negative nay-sayers and surround yourself with believers and doers. Staying positive is important.
In some upcoming posts I’m going to share some results in a variety of areas that I’ve been involved with over the last 5 months. I’ve set several goals and with the help of close friends I’ve reached and exceeded those goals very quickly. It all has to do with encouragement, the size of your goal and the timeframe.
