Write your Goals Down! Magic happens when you put your goals down on paper. Your subconscious mind starts trying to figure out ways to make your goals become a reality.
In 1960, Harvard Business School did a study of their graduates 20 years after they had graduated. They found the top 3% moneymakers made as much money as the other 97% put together. The only difference between the two groups was the top 3% had always written and regularly read their goals. As a result, everything they did on a day-to-day basis was focused on reaching their goals.
How to Write Goals and Objectives
The most effective way to write your goals down is to take a 3x5 card and on one side write:
"I intend to ………. by (date)."
On the other side of your card write why.
"I intend to accomplish this because…"
Then write at least three reasons why you will do it. The reasons increase your belief.
Read your card first thing in the morning EVERY DAY to stay focused on the objective. Then read your card EVERY NIGHT before turning out the lights so your subconscious can work all night on ways to make it happen.
Vividly Imagine the Desired Outcome.
Several times a day close your eyes and for a couple of minutes vividly imagine what it’s going to feel like when you achieve your goal. Really get into it. Feel it as if it were really happening. Get excited! Your subconscious does not know the difference between imagining it and it really happening. By doing this, you become passionate about your desire, your belief becomes unshakeable and you become unstoppable.
