GOAL Setting (2)

Today will talk about 3 principles to make a GOAL.

A Goal must be Specific.

If you say “I just want to be rich”, then you won’t achieve anything. Because being rich is all about point of view. Some one consider having $100 in his pocket to be the richest day in his life, other consider having $100.000 in his bank account worth nothing.
If you say “I want to be richer”, then when I give you a dollar, you will be richer than yesterday [Mission accomplished (^_^)]

Make very clear what you want and when you want to have it.
Cause: Clarity is Power.

A Goal must be form in positive words.

Just for your information: Our subconscious mind don’t know negative words.
It just realizing thought that dominate our mind.
If you say “I don’t want to be poor”, our mind catches the grand word: POOR. And the thing we want to avoid is what happening to us.

A little demonstration: “Right now, I don’t want you to imagine a blue elephant!”
And your imagination is …
Get the point?

So form your goal in positive words.
And to make it even better, Write it with positive emotion and as if you already achieve it.
Example: “With joy and gladness, I (your name) already have $1 million, since (the date you want to have it).

A Goal must be Written

In 1954, Yale University makes a research to their graduation on who already have written goals. There only 3 % who did it. Twenty years later, they continue the research. The result is very interesting. That 3% who write their goals, have more net worth than 97% combined. Wow… that’s powerful.

When we write our goals, it makes clear to our mind that we are serious. We will activate RAS (Reticular Active System) in our brain. RAS is like a device in missile that will chase target and make a correction step until it hit the target.

Have you write you goals?
