Goals are map to your destiny. It involves establishing specific, measurable. and time targeted objectives.  No experience aside from loving and being loved are as intense and rewarding as achieving your goals. The greater your goals the greater your joy of achieving them. 

To be on track to achieving your goals, there are just a few principles that you need to follow. First, you want to experience the achievement of your goal before achieving your goal and do this routinely. The most powerful place to do that is with your imagination. Start visualizing and experiencing the feeling of achieving that goal consistently will help you stay Focus and motivated.

Second, you need to be specific.   “I want to be a millionaire” or “I want to lose weight” are not goals, they are wishes. Wishes only become goals when there is a plan made to attain them; a plan with specific targets. This starts with making your overall goal specific as in “I will lose 20lbs by Dec 2009” or I want to be worth 1 million dollar by Jan 2011.

Reaching any goal is a project and with any project you need to break it down into achievable steps. It must include measurable targets and measurable results.  Instead of “I want to  be rich”, establish a specific timeline with goals at 1 month, 6 months , 1 year   or 3 years.   Sometimes you may not hit your target by the specific time and that’s where a lot of people get discourage and quit.   Well let me ask you this if you were following a map to go somewhere and you still got lost would you quit and sleep on the side of the road forever?  Or would you try to figure out how to get to your destination?  The reason you set up a date is to keep you focus and have something to work toward. Even if you don’t hit your target you need to continue to take action until it’s done.

 Last but not least, act upon achieving that goal and don’t be passive. Follow everything plan step by step. Don’t just wait for things to happen.  Repeat your action day by day. Affirm with faith and feelings that your goal has already been achieved so that your subconscious mind can pick it up which will then provide you with more desire and motivation that will make you unstoppable.

To your success,

Most entrepreneurs fail at least once if not a dozen times. The characteristic that defines a successful entrepreneur is how you handle failure.  Most people always have some anxiety when starting something new and that’s normal.  Honestly if you are not scared a little , your goals probably are not worth much. The only way to overcome your fear of failure is to have the courage to face it and you face it by taking actions. What separates the successful people from those who are not is that they are risk takers. The risk takers have the belief that the “unknown” is not a place to avoid. Fear of failure should be use as a motivation to want to know the outcome. The best thing to do is to use that same fear as a drive to take risk and get it done even if the outcome does not measure your expectations.

Refuse to be daunted by the unknown, have a strong vision and take massive actions. Yes I promised you along the way you are going to make mistakes , some big, some small but don’t worry about those mistakes because it equals experience for you. Falling short does not mean you should stop, if you embrace failures along with successes, learning from each and trying again, you are bound to grow and flourish.

Take a leap of faith – faith in yourself to overcome any obstacle, any problem, any situation. Have the courage to really live life, and if you occasionally fail, just get up, dust yourself off, and try again. Each of us has the will and courage to succeed, it’s simply not recognizing that fact that sometimes stands in our way.

To Your Well Being

Twitter is now the hottest social media platform to do business. It allows us to break the ice so we can meet new people and make friends rapidly.  However, if you want to use twitter to get new customers, there are just a few principles that you have to follow to make that happen and I will show you exactly the steps you need to take to using twitter effectively.

First and foremost you obviously need a twitter account. After setting up a twitter account, you want to personalize your profile and give a brief description about you and whatever you are passionate about. Doing that will help people know what you really all about. The main principle that you want to apply is the law of giving and receiving.  You give by focusing on improving people’s lives first with your expertise within your niche market.  Next, you need to establish a system for getting not just any followers but the right followers.

One quick way you can do that is to write down the top 5 well known expert within your industry and start following them and their followers. You want to follow as many people as you can on their first five pages. To increase the chance of people following you back, start a simple conversation with one of the top expert within your niche market.

 Once you start increasing your followers, make a plan to start tweeting about things that can educate people and share your tip and life lessons about a particular subject or just regular things that happen in your life from a day to day basis that is worth sharing.  One principle that you have to keep in mind is that people usually buy things from people that they trust so it is your absolute duty to build familiarity and trust with all your followers.  Don’t get caught up into selling people so much that you neglect the most important fact of creating relationship.  If you want to succeed in life you have to put people’s interest at heart and then you will be rewarded for that later.

To be super effective using twitter requires you to take consistent action and interaction between you and your followers by asking questions and also taking the time to reply to direct messages that stand out. Once you develop that kind of relationship with your followers, you want to start introducing your product or service. Whatever product or services that you are promoting, your first goal is to educate people about it and tell them the benefits of your product or services. One effective way to tell people about your offer is to make a simple video and tweet that video link to let followers know about it. Following these simple steps and bringing value to your followers will not only increase business but also branding you as the expert.
