There’s a reason you’re always failing to hit your goals.
It isn’t because you’re not smart enough.
It isn’t because you don’t work hard enough.
It’s because you haven’t been taught how to write them properly.
It really is that simple.
If I could show you how to hit your goals within 12 months, AND it just took 30 seconds, would you take that time?
- Grab a pen and paper
- List out every goal you have for the next year
- Go back and cross out all but ONE of the goals
- Keep ONE goal on your paper
- Rewrite your goal to look like this
- Specific measurable metric that I can physically point to
- Write in present tense, not future tense
- I have
- I am
- Give a time frame or some kind of timing in it
- Write out how the goal works
For example, lots of people have a goal “make $10,000 a month” or even more vague “make more money.”
Your goal needs to be written in a way that shows you how you’re doing it NOW.
Make $10,000 a month, becomes:
I make $10,000 every month in passive recurring revenue from having 87 subscriber clients paying $115 a month for access to my software.
Write and rewrite your goal over and over until it reads like something you ARE or something you HAVE or are DOING now.
Get that goal on a post it note.
Keep it in front of you every single day.
ALL your work needs to be focused on that goal.
Write it out every day if needed.
