GOALSHow To Set Them

How To Make Them Happen







It is now December 2012 and you are walking down the

street and bump into yourself!





Why Goals ?



• Harvard class of 1979– 3% had written goals and action plans– 13 % had goals– 84% had none

• In 1989– The 13% earned as much as the 84%– The 3% earned 10x the 97%





So if they work, why don’t we set them?

• Don’t think its worthwhile.• Don’t know how to set them.• Don’t know how to implement them.• Fear they may fail.• Fear others may criticise them if they fail





The 7 Step Plan to Goal Achievement:1. Write a SMART goal(s) for your life – all aspects!S Specific You must clearly define the goal in specific terms.M Measurable You must be able to measure your goal, so at to determine

if you have been successful.A Attainable You must believe that you can attain or reach your goal.R Realistic Your goal must fall into the realms of realism. It has to

conform to the natural laws of life.T Tangible Using your senses, you must be able to touch, taste,

feel, see or hear it

"Many people have a good aim in life, but for some reason they never pull the trigger!"



2. Set the reward that excites youYour reward will help you pass through the fear of failure. Any time you start having second thoughts or questioning what you are doing

“Always take the reward when it is due: when the goal has been achieved. Never

take if it isn't due!”



3. Identify any potential obstacles & set strategies to overcome these obstacles

“You must have long range goals to keep you from being frustrated by short

range failures!"



4. List your Action StepsQ: What is the easiest way to eat an elephant?

• Prioritised• Clearly defined• Identify any help / training required• A target date set• Ticked on completion

"Goals without time limits are only wishes"



5. Write a positive affirmation to support your goal in the conscious & subconscious

An affirmation is a positive, present tense statement that supports what you are trying to achieve.The quality of your affirmation is important. An OK affirmation includes the goal or the reward and includes “Yes”



6. Reading the goal, repeating the affirmation out loud, visualising the goal, and visualising the reward with all your senses at least twice a day.



7. Celebrate success!



What barriers are keeping you back:• What negative thoughts are in the back of you mind?

What is that wee small voice in your head saying:– “You're not good enough.”– “You don't have enough talent.”– “You don't have enough education/training.”

• Don't accept it. Don't listen to it. Forge ahead. • Turn those negative thoughts into positive

actions generating phenomenal results.• Surround yourself with positive people

"My body had long since exhausted all its energy, but it went on

running just the same. The physical overdraft came only from greater willpower.”



• Think BIG.• Set challenging GOALS.• Enlist the SUPPORT you need.• OVERCOME your inertia.• CHOOSE your beliefs• BUILD Optimism• MAKE your life.



"It's the ability to take more out of yourself

than you've got.”Roger Bannister
