GOALS 2012 �" Transform Yourself to Success!

Are you ready to have the best year of your life in 2012? Do you want to feel passionate about your life and your career? If you want to stop dreaming about success and start to achieve it, you need to learn strategies used by the world's top achievers to create the lives of their dreams. To get started, here are some questions to ask yourself:

1). What are your goals for 2012? Think about each area of your life:

Health
Family/Friends
Career/Life Purpose
Financial
Social
Spiritual
Romance/Intimacy
Physical Environment (home, office, spaces you spend time in)
Other

2). Which of these goals will make the biggest difference in your life?

In 2012, I want _____________________________________________________.

3). Why are you committed to this goal? What are your "Big Reasons?"

What will you gain by accomplishing your goal? What will you rob yourself of if you don't?

What will you have to give up or do differently to achieve this goal? Are you willing?

If the answer is no, don't beat yourself up!! Just pick another goalJ.

4). What will your biggest challenges be? How do you plan to overcome them?

5). What daily habits will you have to put into place to be successful with your goal?

6). Create a written plan with specific, measurable action steps to achieve your goal.

7). What will your "Internal Board of Directors" have to say to you about your goal?

You don't have enough ______________________________to be successful!!
(Fill in the blank with things like "money, time, talent, education, courage, ...")

You aren't ___________________________enough to be successful!!
(Fill in the blank with things like "smart, old/young, strong, connected, ...")

How will you respond to these thoughts?

THIS IS KEY - IF YOU DO THINGS THE SAME WAY THAT YOU DID LAST YEAR, YOU WILL GET THE SAME RESULTS.

Remember this phrase: You must BE a new person to accomplish new goals!
