"Increase
Your Success By 100% With This Proven "Goal Power Strategy"
"The victory of success is half won when one gains
the habit of setting goals and achieving them. Even the most tedious chore will become
endurable as you parade through each day convinced that every task, no matter how menial
or boring, brings you closer to achieving your dreams."
Og Mandino 1923-1996, Author
The Power Of Written Goals
In the 1970's Harvard University conducted a study that
revealed the top 3% of super-successful people are those who have written goals. The top
3% of this study accomplished far more than the remaining 97%. In fact, the top 3% accomplished twice as much (a 100% increase) as those who had goals but never wrote them down, and at least 10
times more (a 1000% increase)
than the majority of people who didn't have goals at all. Don't let the simplicity of this
strategy fool you. When you write down your goals, it helps your mind tune-in to achieving
them.
Step One: Pick The Right Goal
The first step in the goal setting process
is to pick the "Right Goal" for You! A great way to do this is to write
down 21 things you want to accomplish or attain in your lifetime. Next, cross off the
three least important items. Review your list again and cross off three more items. Keep
up this process until you end up with the top three things you want to accomplish or
attain.
Step Two: Rank Your Goals For
Attainability
The second step is to discover which goal you want badly
enough to actually acquire. For this, all you need to do is rank each goal. For each of
your top three goals, ask yourself the following questions.
- On a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being least and
10 being most, how important is this to me right now? Write your score next to each item.
- On a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being least and
10 being most, how much time and effort am I willing to put into attaining this right now?
Write your score next to each item.
- On a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being least and
10 being most, how badly do I really want or need this right now? Write your score next to
each item.
Total your score for each goal. You have a potential of 30
points for each one. Your highest scoring goal should be the best candidate for success
right now. The time is right. You've picked a goal that you really want or need, its
important to you, and you are willing to put time and effort into attaining it. Go ahead
and pick one of your top ranking goals and move on to the third step.
Step Three: Write It Down And Think
It Through
Written Goals are the foundation of
Great Accomplishment. You can use this written part of the Goal Power Strategy to
accomplish almost anything. Whether you want to improve your education, land a better job,
buy a new car, obtain a specific amount of money, improve your relationships, or
anything else, you can Increase Your Success Rate by asking yourself the following
questions and Writing Down Your Answers:
I want or need the following?
Why do I want / need this?
What do I need in order to reach this goal?
Why do I falsely believe this is unattainable?
Why do I know it is actually possible to reach
this or a similar objective?
How can I use my strengths to help achieve this
goal?
How can I benefit others as a result of this
goal?
What people, organizations, books, training or
any other resources are available to help me achieve this goal?
What is my timeframe for reaching this goal?
What specific tasks need to be accomplished in
order to reach this objective?
What do I see as the greatest obstacles to
achieving this goal?
What can I do to overcome these obstacles?
How can I keep this goal in the front of my mind
every day?
Step Four: Convince Your Mind To
Achieve It
This step is an absolute must do. Read your
written goals 3 times per day to keep your mind focused on making them happen. It is
"Very Important" to read them just before you go to sleep and as soon as you
wake up. Reading them out loud is preferred if at all possible. These two times are
when your mind is very open to the programming of suggestions. Strive to read your goals a
third time somewhere in the middle of your day, just so you don't let them get crowded out
by other distractions.
Develop a clear picture in your mind of
what it will be like once your goal is accomplished. In your mind, vividly experience
yourself as already having the thing you desire. Make this mental imagery as real as
possible by using all of your senses. See it, feel it, touch it, hear it, taste it, all in
your mind. Play this mental video every night before you go to sleep and every morning
when you wake up. Once your subconscious mind believes "without doubt" that you
will achieve your goal, you will be in the optimum mode to make it happen!
Every night before you drift off to sleep,
ask yourself the following question: "What can I do now to make this goal a
reality?"
Step Five: Pass The Test
As an added bonus of becoming a top
achiever, you will be tested. Almost like magic, as soon as you make up your mind to
attain something good, obstacles appear. It's Life's little way of testing you. This test
is designed to help you prove to yourself that you are committed to what you've decided
upon. Just remember, for every obstacle you encounter there is a way to victory over it.
Obstacles always seem a lot worse than they really are, so just stay the course and keep
your goal in the front of your mind. As you do, you will find sweet victory and attain the
object of your desire.
As you face obstacles, each night before
you drift off to sleep ask yourself the following questions: "how can I overcome this
obstacle in the quickest and easiest way?"
Step
Six: Act On Your Ideas
With your mind focused on accomplishing your goal, you will
begin to have inspirational ideas that are in line with what you want to achieve. Whenever
you get inspired with an idea thats in line with your goal, take action! Sometimes
youl get the perfect idea at the perfect time. Other times your idea will be in the
right direction but youl have to make adjustments along the way to your goal. Just
remember to keep your goal in the front of your mind, follow these steps, and act when
inspired. As you do, you will accomplish far more than ever before.
Best wishes to you in all your pursuits and may you enjoy
super successful living the rest of your days!
Sincerely,
