Are You Not Writing Your Goals Daily? The Journey Will Kill You.

The single habit that I contribute to my success isn't making cold-calls like crazy, or meditating 60 minutes daily, or posting 5 videos every day. The one that changed everything for me was this - writing my goals down every morning in bed and every morning before bed.

During time when things were horrible, I was surrounded by negativity from family, friends and haters, and I lacked the motivation to take action on my goals and slowly progress towards them. What saved me was the habit of writing my goals down twice daily; You see, when you write your goals down, it either serves to inspire you, or serves as a painful reminder you're not where you want to be.

All change starts with either inspiration or desperation, and boy, sometimes there just ain't any inspiration to find. So I kept writing my goals down, reminding myself of how I was ******* up, how I wasn't doing what I should do, how I was dealing with things beneath me rather than focusing on big picture stuff.

The pain of seeing my goals every morning and every night caused a discomfort that could only be solved in one of two ways, either I stop thinking about my goals, or I start moving towards them. I chose to move towards them.

When I say that I wrote my goals down every day I don't mean just writing things that I sort-of want to have in the near future, I mean writing down my long-term dreams and massive ambitions. Amazing and giant dreams of wealth, travel, investing, love, fame and more!

I also write my goals down in the present positive tense with emotions added to it, this means that I don't write "I wish I'll be the most famous coach in the world." or "I will be the most famous coach in the world.", I write "I am the most famous coach in the world and it's ******* amazing!".

Writing your goals down also helps during good times. "Good times? Why would you need help during good times?", the reason is very simple. Behind every success is the seed of failure. Success breeds complacency and entitlement. We tend to get satisfied where we are and stop taking the consistent actions that prompted the growth that got us to where we are, we lost sight of the big picture goals and settle for mid-way comfort. The issue of entitlement is what causes people to falsely believe that they are now "special" and "above the process", they believe success is now their earned privilege but as famous speaker Rory Vaden brilliantly puts it, "Success is Never Owned; it's only rented - and the rent is due everyday."

Once you stop taking the actions that created the growth that led to the success, the growth cycle ends, and once the momentum stops, you'll start contracting like a wristband after it was pulled to massive proportions.

As you can see, writing your goals down twice daily will help you with hardships by focusing on your goals, remembering what's important, not getting lost in minutia (one of my mentors says "if you focus on minutia you get manure"), the other benefits of writing your goals down twice daily come from the positive side of success, by helping you stay hungry for more, seeing the big picture of success and never entitled or complacent.

Will you commit to writing your goals down every day when you wake up and every night before bed? it only takes 3 minutes but makes all the difference. If you won't, think about what that means, aren't your goals important enough for you to look at them twice every day? Do they not excite you anymore? You need to change them then.

As Grant Cardone often says, "You may be better than me, faster, smarter and better looking, but you write your goals down once a year when someone tells you and I write my goals down 730 times a year, there's just no competition."

I also write my goals down during the day whenever I lose focus on my purpose or whenever I lose or something bad happens to me, this is like magic and helps keep me positive, excited and full of energy to keep pushing forward towards my dreams.

Join me and start writing your dreams down every day, in 6 months you'll be a different, better person.
