A Goal Setting Tip fromMike Litman:

I just got back from a seminar I spoke at in Texas this weekend and I want to share with you a ‘theme’ I heard from 3 coaching clients I was able to get together with there.

What was so interesting to me is that ALL 3 of them said the EXACT same thing to me.

Let me make this point and then, right after, show you a powerful and SIMPLE success principle.

So tough.

I was scattered.

I was a procrastinator.

I tried to generate $10,0.00 a month before I ever made $5,000.

I tried to generate $1,00.0,000 before I ever earned $100,0.00.

I was trying to reach my goals, but never to pay my dues.

I had a ton of ideas, but no results.

I was going backwards faster than the famous track athlete Carl Lewis runs. It wasn’t pretty.

…..But then things started to change.

Just like they have for these 3 coaching clients I met with at the seminar this weekend in Texas.

We’ve helped these 3 individuals change their lives and income and let me share with you this one point we’ve held them ACCOUNTABLE on.

This ONE point I used to transform my finances and I STILL use it today.

Here’s the ‘principle’:

Ready?

***MAKE your GOALS smaller.

“What Mike?”

Yes, you can have a big vision, but make your goals smaller.

“Can you explain Mike?”

Yes.

When I was making $5,000 a month, my goal next month was $6,500.

When I was making $12,000, my next month’s goal was $14,000.

And on and on.

The seminar I was at had about 500 people. I asked them: ‘How many people set big goals and still weren’t where they wanted to be?” 95% of the room raised their hands.

These 3 coaching clients I met with at the seminar all have MOMENTUM.

That’s what happens when you have PROGRESS and you reach your goals. take a deep breath and take ONE step at a time.

Success is counterintuitive.

Sometimes to go faster, you need to go slower.

I bet if you make your goals 50% smaller, you’ll have 100% more results.

This is your year. Try this for 60 days and watch what happens.

Here are the results for these 3 coaching clients.

Two have doubled their income.

One’s income is up 25%.

All three have seen their confidence and happiness skyrocket.

2009 is your year to unleash YOUR greatness!

Talk to you soon.
