Now, let me give you a little simple formula for goal setting.
Okay? We take two two and a half hours
on the weekend for the whole 10-year plan.
We don't have time for that tonight.
But let me get you started with a little simple formula.
Mr. Chef gave me and maybe this will be helpful.
First of all, I've divided goals into two parts.
First is long range. Long range goals.
That's your dreams, your dreams for the next 3, 5 10, 20, 30, 40
years, actually the rest of your life.
Your dreams. You've got to keep dreaming.
Ronald Reagan, president said to the Joint session of Congress a
few weeks ago. The Republic is a dream.
And if we don't keep dreaming, we will lose the Republic.
Your better future is a dream for yourself.
And for your family. What do you want to go?
What do you want to do? What do you want to be?
What do you want to see? You've got to dream dreams.
There's a Bible phrase that says without dreams and Visions
people. Perish.
You've got to have something to go for that, inspires the heart
and the soul. Dream.
From The Children of Sanchez. It says, take the crumbs from
starving soldiers. They won't die.
Take the bread from Hungry children.
They won't cry but without dreams we all will die.
You've got to dream, don't lose your dream for yourself, for
your future, for your family. The dreams of love and
Enterprise and travel and doing things becoming something unique
on your journey. Here.
Don't lose your dreams, do some dreaming.
That's a long range goals. You got to have those.
So that's number one. Here's the second part of goals,
short range. Short range goals.
That's your goals for tomorrow, this week, this month, this
year, the immediate future, we call these confidence, Builders,
because if you set up something short-range, go for it, get it
lasts, latch onto it, work hard to accomplish it.
That's starts building your strong feelings to go for your
dreams. Now, I've divided goals into
three categories. Here.
They are. Number one is economic.
That's your goals for money income.
Business profits production. Economics, make sure you've got
your economics will plan. Economics plays a major role in
everybody's life. Economics is Major, which means
that ought to be meticulously. Well, planned for tomorrow this
week, this month this year, long range.
What if you ask somebody tomorrow, if you could see their
meticulously well-planned list of economic goals?
Well, they probably say. It's so you some kind of a nut.
You must be weird. Hey, I found out what success is
success is doing what the failures won't do.
Make sure you've got your economics well-planned.
It'll put you in the top 5%. One of the key little subjects
we talked about on the weekend is the seven fundamentals for
wealth and happiness. And that's one of them
well-planned economics. It's a fundamental if you want
to do well, join the top 5% anybody in this room can join
the top 5% if you will. Now, here's the second category
of goals things. Make a list of the things you
want. And on my list of things.
Now, I put everything little things as well as major things,
doesn't matter how small it is. It goes on my list.
I used to just put major things cars homes.
I don't do that anymore. I now load my list of
everything, everything. And the reason is part of the
fun of having a list is checking it off.
That's it. Boy, at the end of the day, if
you can go, got it. Got it.
Got it.
Got it, Whatever It Is, Right,
you get into the Habit. So load up your list, the things
you want. Now, when you check off
something, major. Celebrate.
That's an important point to make celebrate your
achievements. Live It Up, have a party.
When you reach something, you've worked for for a while.
See we all grow from two experiences.
One is called the pain of losing.
The other one is called the joy of winning.
We need both of them amplify him as much as you can, which also
means make losing painful. If you set up something fooled
around, didn't get it. Put it on yourself on the other
side. If you did get it.
Congratulate. El self-congratulations is a
sign of maturity. Seeking congratulations is a
sign of immaturity. But hey winning and losing.
See, that's what it's all about. That's the name of the game.
Now, some people lead such mediocre lives at the end of the
day. They don't know whether they're
winning or losing. They got no clue guys.
Just going through the day with his fingers crossed.
There's a better way. Okay, here's the third category
of goals personal development. Put those goals together,
personal development goals. That's your goal.
Is to be stronger. More decisive, be a speaker, be
a leader, learn a language, all kinds of skills.
Okay, the whole weekend seminar was designed to improve all your
skills, so that you walk away more skillful.
And that's what you want. The personal development skills.
That's what attracts. That's what brings good things
to your life. The person you've become more
skillful. Now, this is quite a package to
work on economics, things personal development for
tomorrow, this week, this month this year, long range.
Okay, that will get you started. Now here's the simple formula
for setting goals. It goes like this.
A work on your goals. That's step one.
Work on them. And I put the word work, there
deliberately setting goals is plain hard work.
I don't want the kids. You haven't come here tonight to
kid each other. It's work.
I know it's work. That's why a lot of people.
Just let it slide. It's work.
Many people work hard on their job, but they don't work hard on
their future. They just let that slide.
And the work involved is making plans.
I know, most people don't, I understand that, but don't let
that be you. Guy says well, yeah, you work
where I work. But the time you struggle home.
It's late. You got to buy the supper, watch
a little TV. Get to bed.
You can't set up half the night, plan, plan plan, and the guys be
Good worker hard, worker sincere, but you've got to be
better then sincere. Working hard.
You got to be better than a good worker.
You got to be a good planner. Somebody once wisely said, the
people who fail to plan are planning to fail. well said, So
work on your goals here, step to write your goals down.
That's so important. I teach my staff around the
world, put your goals in your Journal.
Because one of the major people you want to study is yourself.
So here's the list of goals. I put together three weeks ago.
Here's the list of goals. I put together two years ago.
Here's some of the changes I made rearranged me of my
priorities. I scratch these off.
I put these on, I've gotten these study, your accomplishment
study what your desires are put them on paper, write them down.
Here's another reason for writing your goals down.
It shows you're serious about doing better and to do better.
You got to get serious. You don't have to be Grim, but
you must be serious. Everybody hopes things will get
better. Everybody hopes.
Poor people. Hope that ought to tell you
something. It means the future does not get
better by hope, it gets better by plan.
I used to have the Affliction called passive.
Hope. It's an Affliction.
It's bad. Probably what's even worse than
that is Happy. Hope now that is really bad.
That's bad, Happy. Hope.
The guys 50 and he's broke and he still smile.
See, that's not good. So, get serious about your
goals, put them on paper ride him down.
There's all kinds, his goals, her goals, their goals, business
goals, financial goals Financial Independence goals, family
goals. I mean, there's so many things
to work on on this that if you don't get busy and work on it,
sure enough, the time will pass and sure enough, five years from
now, you'll wind up where you don't want to be where and what
you don't want to wear driving, what you don't want to drive,
being what you don't want to be. Now's the Time to fix it.
Now, here's the third step to your goals.
Check the size of your goals and the kinds of goals.
How big they are, what kind they are affects you.
And here's one of the important phrases of the evening.
Your goals are affecting you, whatever they are, your goals,
affect your handshake, your goals to fix your attitude
personality, your goals, affect the way, you walk the way you
talk, the way you dress. All day long.
We are being affected by our goals.
Now, some people have goals, but they have such lousy goal.
The effect is bad. I asked a guy one time.
What are your goals for this month?
The guy said, look, if I could just scrape up enough money to
pay these lousy bills. That was he's cool.
I'm not saying it isn't the goal.
It's a goal, but it's such a lousy goal.
The effect is bad. You don't jump out of bed on
Monday morning and say, oh boy, another chance to go out and
scrape up the money to pay my lousy bills.
So you don't do that. Usually you say.
Oh not another Monday. And some people have.
So given up on life. They have joined the thank God.
It's Friday. Club.
How sad? Surely those are the same people
when life is over for them, will say thank God, it's over for
her. Surely those are the same people
when life is over for them, will say thank God, it's over for
her.
