Goals.

So many people talk about their goals but not all accomplish them.

The key to achieving your goals is, again, to write them down. There is power when you put your vision in writing that makes it materialized and tangible.

Remember I shared about DMO or daily methods of operation?

It is easier when you start with a bigger picture and work your goals backwards. Knowing what you want to achieve a year from now gives you an idea how to measure the progress every quarter, every month, every week, and every day.

Put down clear and measurable goals. Instead of saying “I want to earn a 6-figure income next year,” you should say, “I want to earn $120,000 by the end of February next year.”

If, let’s say, today is March 1st, then you have 12 months to achieve that goal. It means you have to make $30,000 every quarter on average. If you just started, you can divide the quarterly goals like this:

• 1st quarter (Mar-May): $6,000
• 2nd quarter (Jun-Aug): $19,000
• 3rd quarter (Sep-Nov): $36,000
• 4th quarter (Dec-Feb): $59,000

Now, you can set monthly goals for every quarter, like this:

• March: $1,000; April: $2,000; May: $3,000
• June: $5,000; July: $6,000; Aug: $8,000
• Sep: $10,000; Oct: $12,000; Nov: $14,000
• Dec: $15,000; Jan: $19,000; Feb: $25,000

You can then set weekly goals and even daily goals. I think you got the idea.

This also works with the amount of potential customers you want to reach, or the size of the company you want to grow into.

Once you set your goals, you can schedule your days with money-making activities coupled with personal and skills development time. As you learn how to manage your time better, you can set up even higher goals in the following years.

Next, it comes back to envisioning time!
