mindset of success

Proper Goal Setting!


Here’s how to do it.
1. Write down a list of 10 goals that you want to achieve in a specific amount of time. For ex: One year.
2. Look at your list a pick the direst goal on it. (This will ultimately help you achieve all the other goals that are on your list.)
3. Write down your goal in a manner that you have already achieved it (in the present tense.) Do this daily!
4. Now ask yourself how you are going to achieve your goal. Come up with twenty answers. It MUST twenty answers. It will be hard.
5. Take action IMMEDIATELY! You may not know how you to do some of the things on your list so you will have to figure it out!
6. Do something every day towards your goal until you are successful.
7. Remind yourself that failure is not an option.
This is the model that I follow and it came from the book NO EXCUSES! By: Brian Tracy. It’s not verbatim but it is pretty darn close. Remember you must write everything down.
I hope this helps. It may seem like a lot of work but success takes a lot of work.

Have a PlAN and then TAKE ACTION

the education system is made to turn human beings into compliant average workers with interchangeable skills . it focuses on fixing weaknesses rather than nurturing excellence.

the people who are successful ..who achieve more than 1000 other people in their field ..dont chase the money they find what they are goo at..then do what they can to get better and better at it ..as you get better more money usually become a marker for that improvement .

do what you would love to do for 12 hours a day 5 6 7 days a week..or that you are always doing even when playing ..

goals work..but rarely is it worth the time and effort writing goals if you have no personal excitement from the outcome of the goal .

I have had 1 main goal the last 4 years ..to figure out what i wanted to do ..and the answer to that has only come into focus recently .

the education system tend to leave people without basic skills that most people had 40 or 50 years ago ..in most cases a good chunk of successful people didn't do too well in school ..or in the case of many dyslexic people i have read about had to devekop people skills to get around their problems .

don't be average per sue excellence.

it is like

I'll agree with Odahh, the purpose of the school isn't to put you in a positive frame of mind. The more school you do, the tougher it will be to get out of this mindset.

You are so right. Passion, persistence and patience certainly are required as part of any successful venture, but also a person must first be educated on how to use those character attributes to become entrepreneurialy self-sufficient.

Sadly, as many have mentioned, schools were not designed to give understandable working tools to become financially self-sufficient through building a business. Such a fate seems to be the luck of the few as compared to the multitudes of people on the planet.

But, no matter, it is never too late to wake up to right ideas and start anew.

I like the "list method" hehehehe. Using this system I can be always focused. I don't know why but...without schedule I can start 100 business models the same day hehehe (of course without success).

Regards

1. know where your going
2. know your reason why
3. get a mentor
4. read/audio every single day
5. take massive action

I am always arguing with people, mainly family and friends that school will not lead to a life of dreams. It MAY help you find a stable job and live a steady life. But myself, I dont want that. My girlfriend is already 15k in debt and has not even started her course yet.. 3 more years of that and 45k later ... Time for a mortgage and whatever else life throws at you, whilst trying to score a well paying job out of the 100's that graduated with you.

Personally, I was a high achiever , but then things changed, I saw where my life was going and the corporate bait I was being bred for.. I spent the remaining years of my education dreaming, dreaming BIG. Day and night. Grades went down , not by a lot but still enough to raise concern. Was I worried ? Not at all as I knew I was spending my energy more wisely by arming myself with the knowledge to break free of the wage slavery my fellow class mates were all unknowingly lining up for.

I truly believe this community will lead to a high percent of dream successors. Engage, share ideas and take action! Life if what you make it.

R.S

Like Robert Kiyosaki (author of Rich Dad Poor Dad) said, school trains and prepares you to go to work for someone else, not to work for yourself.

Well These things are never taught in School because these things are taught by a better instructor - LIFE. The education system is pretty well determined to make fools after fools. Think about your dreams.

If you want success you must have focus and plan and then work with your plan.

Usually the concept of entrepreneurship is taught in schools. But incomplete.
You can read motivational books that have been written by experts on motivation. Of course, you also have to practice what you've read. Good luck man!

The key for succss are [in my opinion]
-Identify your goal
-Make a plan
-Take Action
-Be patient, Be inspired, Be committed

i'm beginning to see why education is failing so many kids, they really don't teach relevant skills, but that may be for a reason, maybe they are teaching us to be good little consumers.

everything we need to learn isn't even in college, it's more in the books you get from the library.

another thing i just learned from brain tracy is that one needs to know his values so that his actions match up to his beliefs, that way we're not contradicting ourselves for example if we value health, we're not gonna be taking up smoking.

brian tracy, what an inspirational figure!

Plan - Do - Act - Check this is a simple formula of Quality Management proposes to improve the goals and for the betterment of the company and also for your self.

If you have a goal set up in your mind, then prepare a plan to how you can reach the target, do your best efforts and keep one thing in mind, never to be afraid of failure.

a) The belief that whatever your goal is, it's possible for you to achieve it.
b) The habits required to achieve the goals.
c) Strategies, tactics and processes to achieve the goal.

Some school or college may teach entrepreneurship but most don't, I guess because they are run by employees and not entrepreneurs.

its like "stop dreaming and start doing" .. Actually, determination is the key to success..just keep pushing yourself and then one day you will grab what you wanted to.

Great thoughts!.No one succeeds in their first attempt..You have to stick with it until you succeed

lol,,, those stuff are never taught in school and college because I think:
1. they're old school
2. the teachers don't even realize it themselves
3. the parents rarely realize this as well..

It's our opportunity then to teach them this.

Yeah it did not taught this in HS and College may be because the teacher did not want to surpass them by their students.

A fearless approach to success can be very powerful. I believe if you're willing to do whatever it takes to be successful, (no matter how difficult or uncomfortable it may be) then you have no choice but to become successful.

yeah i heard that proper goal setting is the most important thing, but it's very tough to put into action, set a one year goal, but how do you know the right goal one month out, then 2 months out and so on?

i'm gonna check this book out no excuses from the library, maybe i need to learn that proper goal setting thing.

brian tracy the man!

All you need is a good strategy and the willingness/motivation to work hard at it.
Everything else is B.S.

You need:
1. To truly believe you can achieve your goals
2. Dedicate your full time and energy to it
3. Find ways to keep your goals fresh in your mind to maintain motivation
4. Figure out a system of being productive that works best for YOU
5. Surround yourself with like-minded people that want you to succeed and have similar goals
6. Build a network, which takes time but keep putting yourself out there
7. Realize that every failure is solely YOUR responsibility and you are fully in control of making a change for the better.

Firstly...the keys to success are not taught in schools as these concepts and real education ideas will compromise the production line of "good workers" that are produced by our education systems.

To be successful you need to make a specific decision that that's what you want. As when you make the decision to get what you really want you equip yourself with a resolve that will come into play a multitude of times!

Believe you will be successful and achieve what you want, this is vital as many people who are not working towards their goals will have time to criticize you and remind you each and every time you fail.

Fail your way to success! Every mistake of failure is a lesson...embrace it and learn, no matter how difficult it may be at the time.

Your goal! Have this clear, focus on it daily, believer in it and do all that you can daily to achieve!

In a book written by Napoleon Hill, he says the mindset and key to success is you must be OBSESSED with your idea. Not just passionate but obsessed.

You need patience, money come slowly. You need to learn how to invest on tools, services that will help you to save your time and money. Those things are not taught in school because school only teach you the basic things to develop your brain. From that, you need to learn all by yourself. Just like internet marketing you learn all by yourself and apply it.

Earning 3k-4k is common on IM. Most of the IMer earning that much per month.

Yeah, you are right!

Things are not like we see them in the school, TV, radio even internet. Because government wants us to keep in prison in our body. Instead they teach us how to think, they show us what to think. That is the definition for the Matrix.

The first time when you dare to look in yourself is the the first time when you will start to find the answers about you! That is one of few reason how to set your mind to success!

Aside having the passion and persistence to pursue your own defining measure of success - which includes educating yourself to the tools, resources, and skillsets required to complete or at least compete in your chosen pursuit...

There is one thing that resides above all else;

"A sincere willingness to provide for others!"

Be it by providing solutions, information, guidance, instructions, or just being entertaining and lightening the weight others carry... Your plan needs to include your audience, buyers, prospects best interests at the forefront.

If you just want (or need) the money and that is your primary focus, it will more often then not; leak out into your audience.

I see it all the time with people asking for reviews, or critique on a website, or in their attempts at writing sales copy or in branding their business... All too often it's that "all about me wanting to get rich online perspective" that reaks FAILURE.

As far as schooling, it's not 'how?' -or- 'who' you obtain your knowledge from, it's more important to know; 'what?' to do with it, and to 'whom it can serve?' - for that is 'where' true success dwells.

Hell, you can teach a parrot to recite Shakespeare, but it damn sure won't teach him to write poetry... Sadly, a large portion of the so-called academically privileged do nothing with the educations they pay out the ass for!

Me, I prefer learning in the trenches, hands on, and even though there's disadvantages to being self-taught (i.e. lack of structured layering) - it can be far less costly than weilding a useless degree and working at Mickey D's.

In closing, I also believe the education system is a rouse of sort, teaching a silent conformity, for if not; they would include a stronger emphasis on the importance of pursuing ones innermost ambition, and encouraging students to pursue their dream, not societies nightmare.

If 'we' as a whole broke down the superficial scales that weigh us based on tons of bias, prejudice, and close minded thinking... We could become free simply by helping others without seeking the reward beforehand.

Sadly, the world defies us, as the vast majority fall prey as Blind Melon's tune "Home" denotes... "Scratch & Claw, and Grip the Rails" - and in doing so, promotes an all for one, and one for none 'desperate' fear-induced mentality.

Be it better... Be it best, you find empathy for others, and find a way to prioritize becoming a solutions provider, for they really don't teach that shit... because most people already know; they deserve better, and yet are drowning in thirst seeking something that flows without limitation... becauuse they are programmed to believe working for peanuts over time will enable them to have a life later. (As Maury says; "the lie detector determined... THAT WAS A LIE!"

"Become liquid, be like water..." nothing can stop a rushing river!

I agree that technology can be good or bad in a different situation...

What is bad? The scientists are more focused to create something that will help the mankind grow faster, but their forget in the same time to check how much this device can will be unhealthy for those who will use it. Let's take the wi-fi devices as example. Most of the world have in their homes and actually they don't know how much that device can affect on their brain or body. I am sure that the big companies like Microsoft, Apple or Samsung know how to solve this problem, but it will cost them much more money to do that and that's why they keep that in secret.

On the other side, what is good? Let's take the smartphone as example. You can travel all around the world and stay in touch with every person in contact by one piece of device who can put in your pocket. Plus, if you find area where is a wi-fi signal, you can communicate for free!

You have to stretch your comfort zone. That is, if you keep doing what you've always done, you'll get what you always got.

Just this week, I looked at my business, and said to myself, of all the things you know how to do, and you think are easy, do any of these things need to be done to make the business grow? And the answer was, well, yes, there are all sorts of those things I could do, but you know what, they don't grow my business, don't make more sales, bring in more customers.

So, what do I need to do to make more sales and bring in more customers? 2 things.
1. get expert at the one thing that seems close to impossible for me
2. quit spending so much time on each thing, just get them done fast

I generally don't buy IM courses, because I mostly know most of that stuff. But I just bought a course that is supposed to grab me by the hand and walk me through a case study, I am supposed to pause the video and do as he did. This will stretch my comfort zone. I WILL become if not expert, at least very proficient in this area I feel is impossible right now. When I am expert, it will be comfortable to do it!

The education system is set up for us to continually rely on those who own businesses, and those who own the world, so that way the majority of us will be easier to control.

I think one of the most important is goal, however goal will not work without willingness to reach it or motivation to do it. I also believe that sometimes taking risks is one step closer to success. I mean, think about things thoroughly it is not about just grabbing risks, just weigh in pros and cons.

They come from within and are not necessarily teachable. You develop them as you go along and in effect, all academic subjects demand some element of perseverance and passion.

Have a plan, stick to it and get ready to work your butt off.

Just like Will Smith said, it's not about talent as much as it is about working hard.

It's more about discipline - being consistent and deciding to stick at it through thick and thin. That's how successful people behave.
