Defining your goals is the first step

Defining Your Goals

Have you ever sat if front of your computer, brought up the mapquest site to get your directions to the airport, or some restaurant only to realize that you don't know the address – you just know it as the airport or as the restaurant. So now before you can get your directions and your printout of the map that you need – it is time to do some research. You need to know the address to give to mapquest.

The process of materializing your goals is not all that different – you need to know where you want to go before you can "plan the trip". Accomplishing a goal, no matter how big or how small is simply the process of identifying what it is that you want, putting together an action plan (or map) and then implementing the actions required to put it all together.

So after you are finished reading this – take a moment and write down, first of all some areas of your life where you want to make some real changes.
  • Financial
  • Prosperity (not the same as financial)
  • Relationships
  • Career and/or Business
  • Free time
  • Family

Once you know the areas of you life that are affecting your ability to live the way you have the burning desire for – you can narrow things down. You are now able to set a goal – or goals for each area. Spend some time thinking about the areas of your life you want to expand and the next time we will talk about Fear and why people start on the road to success but either stop enroute or get so side tracked that they loose their way.
