Goals We Set…Are Goals We Get!
January 11, 2008
Almost everyone has hopes and dreams for 2008 be their best year ever. Our advice is that you take the time to put those wishes and dreams down on paper. It’s called a WISHLIST because that’s exactly what it is, a list of wishes, hopes and dreams.
If you had a magic wand in your hand and could create the perfect life for yourself in the next 3-5 years, what would it look like? Where would you be living? What would you be doing? What kind of shape would you be in? What Martial Art skills would you possess?
Writing down your wishes and dreams is a great exercise. It’s a lot of fun and it helps you to start thinking about the goals that will move you in the direction of your dreams. The next step is to create your GOALS LIST for 2008. These are goals that you want to achieve in the next 6-12 months.
Experts agree the moment you take action on your dreams, you have begun the process of goal achievement. The first action should always be to write them your goals down on paper. Better known as, “Think it, Ink it!” Never leave the sight of a goal without taking action. Goal setting is such an essential and powerful tool for success in the Martial Arts and in life.
Our Black Belt Success System is a great example of goal setting in action. Becoming a Black Belt Champion takes an average of 3-5 years for those that set their sights on it early. This would be considered a long range goal. The best way to achieve a long range goal is to break it down into bite sized portions. You do this by creating short and mid-range goals that lead you toward your ultimate long range objective, just like the step by step process in the journey to Black Belt.
Let’s make it a great week!!!
