A Written Goal Must Have Time Frames - By Warren Greshes

One of the key components of a written goal is that it must have a time frame or deadline.

Time frames give you a frame of reference. They also allow you to know when you can stop. And, after all, if you don’t know when you can stop, what’s the motivation to start?

Having a time frame makes it easier to formulate a plan for achieving the goal. For example, if my goal is to lose 20 pounds in 10 months, I can draw up a plan that has me losing 2 pounds a month or one pound every 2 weeks.

If I leave it open ended, how soon will I get frustrated with the lack of results, because I have no way of measuring them, and just give up?

Most people doom themselves to failure before they even start. They say things like, “Some day I’m going to quit this job and get a better one;” “I’m going to start my own business sometime in the next few years;” “Some day I’m going to lose this extra twenty pounds;” Whenever you hear somebody use one of the above phrases, rest assured none of those things will ever happen.

Let’s examine one of the vague words people use to help sabotage themselves: let’s look at the word “sometime.”

Sometime is an interesting word because it could mean anytime, but the way we use it, it usually means never.

Have you ever asked one of your children to do something around the house and they reply, “Sure mom (dad), I’ll get around to it sometime.” What does their reply tell you? That it’s probably never going to get done.

What if you called me on the phone to set up a sales appointment with me and said, “Warren can I come over and see you sometime?” And I said, “Sure,” then hung up. When would you come by? I’d say you better come over right away, because other than right now you’ll never know when I’m going to be there.

Has this ever happened to you: you’re walking down the street and you run into someone you haven’t seen in a while, and couldn’t care less if you ever saw him or her again. You find yourself saying, “Hey, haven’t seen you in ages. You look great! We should get together sometime. Give me a call sometime. Better yet, give me your number and I’ll call you sometime.” Why do you say that: because you don’t ever want to see that person again.

We use the word “sometime,” when we don’t want to do something. So, what are we saying when we take the word “sometime” and tack it onto the end of our goals and plans? Unfortunately, we’re saying it’s never going to happen.

When you write down your goal, please remember to write down the year or date you intend to achieve it by, because a goal is a dream with a deadline.

Josh's Thoughts:

Take a moment to look back over your own list of goals. Look for times where you've neglected to add time frames and I have a feeling you'll see a pattern form. More often than not I think you'll notice that the things that didn't get done didn't have time frames attached... am I right?

I'm the first to admit that at any given moment there are any number of things that demand our attention. Therefore if we don't keep the goals we've set for ourselves in clear view, all those things that popup will naturally take over the time we could otherwise use to achieve the things that will get us towards our intended goals.

I use a pretty simple system for keeping track of my goals and the actions that I need to do in order to achieve the goals I set for myself. I use a simple text file on my computer where I list the main goal - item I want to get done, underneath it I'll include the "next actions" that will get me closer to achieving my given goal. Again, it's a simple system, but I've found that by attaching time frames to action items a LOT more things get done than if I didn't use this approach.

Nothing Is Impossible! By Jill Koenig

I do believe that anything a human being can conceive, they can achieve. The bigger question becomes, is the person going to have the desire, commitment and determination to see the goal through.

Nothing is impossible. There are ideas and inventions that were created in the past 20 years that seemed crazy when they were first attempted. Now we use them every day and cannot imagine life without them.

Here are some examples of Visions that once seemed impossible:

* Electricity
* The Telephone
* The Four Minute Mile
* Fax Machines
* Cell Phones
* The Personal Computer
* The IPOD
* The Internet

Oh how I marvel at the creators who dared to persist and overcome adversities in order to succeed. I am literally in awe.

I don't watch much tv, but I do Tivo programs that I think might be interesting and I watch them on the weekend. I can fast forward past the commercials (time management tip) I save hours per week by chunking my tv watching this way.

I Tivo'd Nightline the other day and was fascinated by what I learned. The US military has a compound outside of Las Vegas, NV where soldiers pilot aircraft. The aircraft they pilot are over in IRAQ! Yes, they use remote controls to navigate unmanned Predator aircraft that are in the air 7,500 miles away!

These aircraft are equipped with cameras, carry Hellfire missiles and the pilots in NV can fire at enemy on the ground. The aircraft can fly up to 20 hours at a stretch without refueling. This creation was once a goal. It was once someone's vision. How much persistence do you think it took to bring this goal to life?

Might there have been a few challenges along the way? How much teamwork do you think it took to coordinate all of the undersea cables, satellite devices and remote communication tools and technology to make it all work?

Goals are the most motivating force on Earth. They bring people together, they challenge us and force us to grow. They help us to become more than we thought we could be. Goals cause us to attempt the things that ordinary people think are crazy. Goals dare us to overcome. Goals dare us to dream.

This hangs on my wall:

Impossible is Nothing!
Impossible is just a big word
thrown around by small men,
who find it easier to live
in a world they have been given,
than to explore the
power they have to change it.
Impossible is not a fact
it's an opinion.
Impossible is not a declaration.
It's a dare.
Impossible is potential.
Impossible is temporary.
Impossible is nothing!

I dare you to set a big goal today. I dare you to pursue the "impossible."

Live Your Dreams!

How To Achieve Any Goal - By Anna Johnson

To achieve any goal, all you need to do is COMMIT yourself to achieving it.

Sounds simple... but what that really means is committing yourself to doing every single thing that's necessary to achieve that goal.

And that's where it can be challenging...

You may tell yourself that you're "committed" to getting a new job... or to start a business... or to become wealthy... or to get a book published...

But have you really committed yourself to doing ALL the little -- and big tasks -- that are necessary to achieve that goal? Are you committed to making ALL the necessary sacrifices?

That's what commitment to a goal is really about.

So... how do you commit yourself then?

You'll hear people talk about visualization, affirmations, positive self-talk and other techniques designed to "re-program" your mind so that you're COMPELLED to fulfill your commitment. You'll also hear many people claim that these techniques don't work!

Well, it doesn't matter "what works" -- what matters is "what works for YOU".

And what works for you is... WHAT HAS WORKED FOR YOU BEFORE.

You see, you've already committed to achieving goals in the past... and you've achieved those goals.

So why not do what you did then in order to commit yourself now?

For example, if you're starting a new hobby, you might recall that when you embraced other hobbies in the past you did specific things that helped you learn a lot about the hobby and develop key skills in a relatively short period of time. It might have been purchasing books and magazines related to the hobby, visiting relevant websites, and/or joining groups of like-minded people to discuss and take part in the hobby.

Not only are these activities enjoyable and valuable in themselves, but they also form your Commitment Ritual, which essentially enables you to fully commit to, and stick with, the new hobby.

Another example -- when I decided to become a competitive runner a few years ago (as opposed to just running for fitness) I read a lot of books and magazines about running, I joined a running club, I kept a training diary, I joined an online running forum, I competed in races, and I visualized a lot, among other things.

That's how I committed myself to running.

In fact, everything I did was part of a "COMMITMENT RITUAL" that got me hooked on running -- and not just willing, but EAGER -- to get up and train at 6am every morning -- rain, hail or shine!

And, now, having had my kids, I'm going through the same ritual to get back into competitive running again.

Now you might have a different Commitment Ritual. In fact, you might have different Commitment Rituals for different kinds of goals. But the point is -- you have at least one Commitment Ritual.

So... the question is:

Which tried and true Commitment Ritual can you use now to achieve your current goal?

Josh's Thoughts:

One of the key points I found in the article above was in the importance of identifying and doing what has worked for you in the past. This is along the lines of using modeling, which is based on the idea that success leaves clues. That is to say that if one person can achieve success in a given area, then if we can identify, and do (or in this case repeat what's worked for us) what worked for them we can expect to attain similar success.

Any thoughts you'd like to add?

Action Vs. Caution: The Ultimate Battle Within By Nancy Heimstra

"The path to success is to take massive, determined action. " -- Anthony Robbins

It struck me the other day after I had finished a conditional consultation with a client, which, by the way is designed to move you to take action, one way or the other, and the response was, “I will see, I will talk it over with…..”

My sincerest desire is that if he had decided not to work with me, then he immediately contacted another coach to work with. That was not my intuitive feeling though. The hesitation that I felt was one of caution, not clarity. I did not get a feeling that we were just not the right match. It was more of “I am going to think about this some more”. And then, before you know it, it is 1 year later and the problems are still there, probably compounded, and there you are, thinking. What are you thinking about, and thinking about, and thinking about?

Why is it that we are so afraid to take action? What would be the worst that could happen? You really cannot fail, in the truest sense of the word. All that would happen would be that it would not turn out the way you had hoped it would. And that provides needed information to make changes so it goes more to your liking the next time.

Do you really remember other peoples ‘failures”? Most of us are so self-absorbed that we pay little attention to what others are doing anyway. Unless, of course, they are pushing our buttons! You will not be regarded as a failure for trying.

How many times have you come up with an idea and then forgotten it, only to see it on the market a year later making someone else a ton of money? How many times have you had an idea for a book, or a movie or song? Then there it is! The only difference in the person that created it and you is – ACTION.

I am not implying that you would have had the best seller even if you had written that book from that idea. Maybe you were just not ready to move ahead that fast. But you certainly could have written an article and gotten it published. That would have led to increased self-confidence which leads to thinking bigger the next time. One brave action leads to another and soon momentum builds and self-esteem grows. It is the secret of action.

Don’t be that person sitting in the audience, or reading that book, or watching TV thinking to yourself, “I could have done that!” You did NOT do that. You chose safety instead. You chose to be cautious. Safety does not bring about massive action or success.

What are you going to do – today? What inspired action are you going to take in the direction of your dreams and goals? Don’t listen to the naysayer within. That voice is not your champion. Dream big and then MOVE in that direction. You can do it. Reach out today. Throw caution to the wind.

Goal Setting Tip: The Passion Principle By Gary Ryan Blair

Passion is hard-core devotion to a person or cause; it infuses life with meaning, joy, and unbridled enthusiasm. Passion is desire in your heart, fire in your belly, an indispensable virtue that is far more valuable than money, power or fame.

Whether the issue pertains to growing sales, adding greater value, focusing on key result areas, embracing change, attracting talent, or raising our own performance, passion is one of the great differentiators as it fosters commitment and determination.

Passion reflects confidence, spreads good cheer, raises morale, inspires associates, arouses loyalty, and laughs at adversity.

You cannot overlook nor underestimate the relationship between perseverance and passion. Perseverance is the strong determination to move toward the achievement of a goal–purpose. And passion is the fuel that drives perseverance.

No virtue is safe that is not enthusiastic. Apathy is the enemy of passion; it's perhaps the worst of all evils. Far too many people go through life without making any effort to truly live it ... to get that fire in their belly for enjoying life and living it to the fullest.

For the individual without passion, life is irrational, unfulfilling, and for some hopeless. The rootless individual is missing significance and goes through life like a blindfolded man in a strange room playing a game of which he does not know the rules.

Apathy can only be overcome by enthusiasm. Apathy is a killer of ideas, of hopes and of dreams. The world has no lack of good fights to fight and it has no lack of resources to solve our problems. What many lack is the burning desire and enthusiasm to fight the fights and to solve those problems.

The potential to become passionate is an inherent birthright and demonstrated clearly by children. The most irresistible charm of children is their bubbling enthusiasm.

Children who come fully under the spell of passion see no darkness, no stop signs, no red lights, nor speed limits. They are completely smitten and forget that there is such a thing as failure in the world.

Children are easily excited and they have relatively few fears about expressing their enthusiasm. They are turned-on by an innate curiosity that stimulates learning. And, when they learn, they can hardly contain themselves long enough to tell you about their new discoveries.

The secret of genius is to carry the spirit of the child into old age, which means never losing your enthusiasm.

What have you done with childlike enthusiasm this week? Far too many people act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements for a successful life, when all that they really need to be happy is something to be passionate about.

To engage in work that does not cultivate your passion is completely unnatural and sabotages your spirit. You must love that which you do. Your heart must be in it. Without passion and enthusiasm you will never work up to your fullest ability, potential and competitive greatness.

The demands placed on every one of us require that we bring all of who we are to the game. Actively engaged hearts and minds, unwavering commitment, laser focus, and relentless determination are all motivated by passion.

Many factors contribute to creating passion for work. These include identifying what it means to be successful, transforming projects into exciting work, and defining that work in terms of a heroic or noble cause.

What is most beautiful and sacred to you? What would you feel incomplete without? When you have identified that which brings you complete joy, your own unquenchable desire to achieve that goal will become your passion — the inner drives that turns your dreams into a shining reality.

Few things are professionally more fulfilling than doing work that you are extremely good at and turned-on about. It's an incredible feeling when what you're good at and excited about enables you to make a contribution that truly adds value. The result is meaningful success.

Deep down we all want to be involved in work that matters, that has meaning, that is memorable, and if we're really lucky, work that changes the world.

Compelling work stimulates the passion in everyone. They're the things from which legends and legacies are made. If the project you're working on now is not fueling enthusiasm, you should transform it, reframe it, and redefine it until you fall in love with it.

Those who truly get the passion bug see the bigger picture and ultimate value they bring to the world. They do this by linking their individual contributions to a larger, nobler cause.

It's the administrative assistant in a hospital who believes she is a part of saving lives; it's the photo developer who knows that she preserves people's memories; and it's the sailor who understands that the combat readiness of his ship strengthens peace negotiations.

When people establish a connection between what they do and changing the world for the better, heroism is the result. Everyone wants to feel heroic and noble about something because at the heart of heroism is meaning and significance.

What is the ultimate value you bring to the world? What is the heroic cause for which you fight? When you define work as a cause, a movement worth fighting for, you will find that there is no height to which your spirit cannot rise.

You will also find that you have cultivated something that is extremely difficult to replicate, as passion is the ultimate competitive weapon.

Every great accomplishment is the triumph of some great passion. Great works are only produced when one is intoxicated with a passion for greatness. Vow to live completely, fearlessly and passionately.

Everything Counts!

Simple productivity tips By Josh Hinds

Success begets success. No doubt about it, we all feel a sense of accomplishment (i.e. successful) whenever we manage to complete a task or attain a goal we've set for ourselves.

Therefore it only seems natural that we would all benefit greatly from putting into our daily routine some simple actions that will help us each to experience that all important feeling that we're in fact "getting things done".

Incidentally, if you've yet to read the book by David Allen, "Getting Things Done" (yes that really is the title) do yourself a favor and do so. In it you'll find countless ideas that will do wonders for helping you increase your productivity, both personally and professionally.

Josh's productivity tips...

Before I continue please keep in mind that the purpose of sharing my thoughts here isn't to create mindless robots -- rather I offer these ideas as things that I've found useful and hope that you might as well. Like I always say, personal development is a hands on project. By that I mean give something a try and if you find it's not your cup of tea drop it like a bad habit and give something else a go.

In other words, use what works for you and ignore what doesn't. I don't claim to know all the answers and by the way if you run into someone on this earth who does I might recommend running as fast as you can...lol. Finally, keep in mind that we're all students when it comes to personal development -- with each of us at different levels of study.

The ideas already...

Keep it simple - I'm one of those folks who runs across some new productivity program (I.e. Software app) and before I know it I've got the thing installed and I'm trying it out. Certainly I've run across some excellent solutions over time.

One of the problems I've found in the past however is that unless I'm reminded to use it it doesn't make a hill of beans how many bells and whistles the program has. It's the old out of sight, out of mind getting in the way.

So what do I do? ...

I've committed to making things simple. So simple in fact that I've got a plain text file (not even a word file, plain jane .txt) which I've named inbox. It sits right on my computer desktop (the first screen most folks see on their computer before opening any programs). Is it as glamorous as some of the previous solutions I've used? Of course not. But I'm finding its simplicity is what makes it work so well for me.

Why I think it works...

Since it is just a text file it's naturally small in size. Which means I can (and do) keep it open as long as my computer is on. This helps to ensure that my list of things to do -- my inbox as I call it is NEVER out of sight nor out of mind.

Furthermore, I use a simple way of breaking my tasks / things to do, etc. down so they're displayed in the handy dandy inbox text file.

If you're familiar with the book mentioned above, "Getting Things Done", what I'm about to mention will sound familiar to you. If not bear with me anyway.

Main categories in my inbox file...

I'm pretty easy going on myself when it comes to this. For example, here is how I'd lay out my inbox. Items will of course be removed, moved, deleted, etc. depending on where I am in relation to a given task, project, or goal. Some might disagree with my approach, but I find the flexibility in the way I do it to my personal liking.

So here's the example:

@personal
- list any task I want to get done that's of a personal nature.

@work
- tasks that are work related

@ calls
- phone calls, emails.etc that I need to take care of.

@waiting
- here I would list notes to myself of things I'm waiting for a reply on or to hear back on. Things I don't want to forget and require some sort of response back to me from another person. Say for example I have called someone that I had listed in the @calls category. I'd delete that note to call the person and if necessary make a note of what I was waiting on from them. Again, that's assuming it required a response from them in the first place.

Again, the point here isn't to have some terribly structured system. In my humble opinion it is those overly structured systems that leave me so frustrated that I run from them. So again, consider the idea above, if it works for you, terrific, if not that's fine too. If you can integrate a part of the idea, but not all of it, that's perfectly fine.

Added benefit...

One of the things I particularly like is the simplicity with which I can print a paper version of my inbox text file / list of things to get done. In fact I do this often, scratching off things as their completed, as well as removing them from the list on the computer, that in itself will give you a well deserved feeling of achievement.

Remember, little improvements over time lead to great positive gains, which equates to more of your goals being achieved.

Place no Limits on Your Ability to Achieve By Warren Greshes

An effective written goal requires that you place no limits on your ability to achieve. If it’s what you really want, write it down.

Don’t ever put a glass ceiling over your head and rationalize your life away by saying, “This is what I really want, but I don’t think I’ll get it, so I’ll settle for this.” The second you say, “I’ll settle,” that’s as far as you’ll go.

One of my pet peeves is when I hear people say, “Set realistic goals.” I don’t believe in “realistic goals.” To me, the word “realistic” is a code word. What it really means is, “low.”

When people say, “Set realistic goals,” what they mean is, “Set your goals so low that there’ll be no way you can fail.” What good is that? What good is setting a goal just because it’s easy to achieve?

If it’s not what you really want, you’re not going to be satisfied. In fact, by working for something you didn’t even want, you’ll just end up more frustrated. Plus, your focus is no longer to succeed, but to “not fail,” and there is a big difference between succeeding and not failing.

Every now and then, I meet someone who’s out to prove me wrong. I remember once a young man came up to me and said, “You don’t believe in realistic goals. OK, next year I want to make ten million dollars.” My reply was, “Great! Who’s stopping you?”

Lots of people in America have made ten million dollars in a year. “But first,” I said, “let me tell you what you’re going to have to do to earn ten million dollars.” When I had finished telling him everything he'd have to do, including all the time, energy, effort and commitment he'd have to put forth, he said, “Whoa, hold it; that’s not very realistic.” True, but it wasn’t the ten million dollars that wasn’t very realistic. What made it unrealistic was that he was not willing to do what it took to make the ten million dollars.

Whether or not a goal is realistic is not determined by the goal, but rather by your willingness to do what it takes to achieve the goal. If you’re worried about reality, don’t. Reality sets in during the development of an action plan for your goal.

Reach as high as you want with your goals; it’s when you sit down to plan out that goal that you will decide if you’re willing to do what it takes to reach the goal. If you’re not willing to do what it takes, then yes, the goal is unrealistic. But if you are willing to do it, then it’s realistic.

After all, what’s realistic? If a young boy or girl about 7 or 8 years old came up to you and said, “Someday I’m going to win a gold medal in the Olympics.” Would you tell him or her to be “realistic” and not to aim so high? Many people would. But is it really unrealistic? It might be extremely difficult, but it’s not unrealistic. Lots of people have won gold medals in the Olympics. However, an Olympic gold medal only becomes realistic if that young boy or girl is willing to dedicate him or herself daily to its accomplishment.

Remember there’s no goal that’s unrealistic, only people who aren’t willing to do what it takes to achieve those “unrealistic goals.”

Why You Should Write Down Your Goals ... By Warren Greshes

I’m sure I’m not the first person to ever tell you to write down your goals and hopefully I won’t be the last. Naturally, that might be because it’s good advice.

I’ve always felt there were three real good reasons to write down your goals and they’re outlined below.

1. So You Won’t Forget: This falls under the heading of “Things that sound dumb, but are true.” Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night with a good idea? What did you do? Probably went right back to sleep. Well, if you did, what happened to that good idea when you woke up in the morning? I’ll bet you forgot it.

Now, I’ve had a lot of people say to me, “I don’t have to write down my goals. These are important to me; I’m not going to forget.”

I’ll bet that good idea that woke you up in the middle of the night was pretty important too. Important enough to wake you up at three in the morning and I’ll bet you were convinced you were going to make millions from that idea. In fact, it was so important, you went back to sleep and four hours later, when you woke up, it was gone.

How long do you think it will take you to forget your goals: Eight hours, sixteen, maybe twenty-four?

Write it down, this way you won’t forget.

2. Writing Down a Goal is the First Commitment to Actually Doing It: Let’s face it, we all have goals; we all have dreams. But you know the big stuff, the big goals, the big dreams; You know as well as I that these can take as much as two, three, five or ten years of hard work, effort energy and commitment to achieve. Well, if you’re not willing to take five or ten minutes to write it down, what makes you think you’ll be willing to put in five or ten years of time, energy, effort and hard work to achieve it?

One of the reasons most New Year’s resolutions don’t succeed is that they’re just empty statements. Do you really think you’re going to go through all the agony and sacrifice of quitting smoking or losing weight if you’re not even willing to do the easy part and write it down?

Write it down: it’s your first commitment to actually doing it.

3. Writing Down a Goal Makes you Accountable to the Only Person you Cannot Fool: Yourself: Admit it, you can fool anyone you want. You can fool your spouse, parents, friends, boss, co-workers and children, but there’s one person who always knows the absolute truth: you.

When you have a goal that’s written and therefore visible, you’re going to give it your best shot. You’ll never want to admit to yourself that you didn’t even try to achieve those things you most wanted to accomplish in your life.

There are some people who believe that if they don’t write down their goals, they’re not accountable: out of sight, out of mind. But I really believe that no matter what, you still have to look in the mirror every morning.
